Goals/Objectives

Goal

Create an upstream microalgal protein recovery process for DSM that does not affect the downstream lipid yields.

Objectives

• Research different proteins commonly found in Schizochytrium microalgae

• Select optimal unit operations to be used for protein recovery

• Develop a decision matrix using our criteria and constraints to isolate possible solutions

• Choose the most optimal solution and use SuperPro Designer Software to create a cost and yield analysis simulation
