Harvesting of Scenedesmus obliquus in wastewaters: auto- or bioflocculation?

abstract：:An in-situ, mid-infrared sensor was used to monitor the major analyte concentrations involved in the cultivation of Gluconacetobacter xylinus and the production of gluconacetan, a food-grade exopolysaccharide. To predict the analyte concentrations, three different sets of standard spectra were used to develop calibrat...
