Project Title:

Scalable Process Development for Protein Extraction from Highly Concentrated Microalgae Broths

• Abstract:

The project Proteins4Singapore aims to address Singapore's aspiration to identify domestically grown protein-rich raw materials for the production of novel foods. Proteins4Singapore microalgae which can be grown in highly urbanized environments.

In this master’s/intern project, we will focus on processing microalgae to extract fractions high in protein from concentrated biomass slurries. To facilitate industrial-scale implementation, considerations for scalability and cost-effectiveness are paramount. The initial phase involves establishing a mechanical processing method for microalgae.

Further, microalgae cultures will undergo cross-flow filtration and continuous centrifugation for dewatering. To assess the impact of viscosity on the process, viscosity, and flow index values will be determined. For disruption, high-pressure homogenization will be used on differently concentrated microalgae solutions. The goal is to determine the maximum solid load of microalgae and assess disruption efficiency with increased solid loads.

Following the disruption, debris will be separated from soluble proteins through centrifugation and cross-flow filtration. Subsequently, these solutions will be separated from potential valuable co-products, while monitoring protein stability in highly concentrated solutions. Finally, cost efficiency and economic aspects will be evaluated.

• Applied Methods:

High-Pressure Homogenization, Micro- / Ultrafiltration, Protein Analytics, Rheometry, Centrifugation

Job Responsibilities:

1. Laboratory Work and Experimentation:

• Conduct hands-on experiments related to microalgae processing, protein extraction, and separation techniques.
• Collaborate with the research team to optimize protocols and methodologies.
