...All of them again require treatment of the medium to be re-used (Schenk et al. 2008)....

...Commercial microalgal biodiesel production is not economically feasible yet, mainly due to the high-energy inputs required for water pumping, mixing and for harvesting the microalgal biomass combined with large investment costs (Schenk et al. 2008)....

...Although this is an easy and effective method, this is not an appropriate method for cheap and sustainable harvesting of microalgae in large-scale microalgae production plants because excess cationic flocculant needs to be removed from the medium before it can be re-used and this leads to extra operational costs (Schenk et al. 2008)....
