abstract = {The temporary storage of wet algae concentrates enables the
decoupling in time of algae harvests and their biorefinery.
However, the impact of cultivation and of the harvest
conditions on algae quality during preservation is largely
unknown. This study aimed to determine the impact of
nutrient limitation and of harvest methods on the
preservation of Chlorella vulgaris biomass. Algae were
either well-fed until harvest or received no nutrients for
one week, and were harvested by either batch or continuous
centrifugation. The organic acid formation, lipid levels,
and lipolysis were monitored. Nutrient limitation had a
large impact and resulted in lower pH values (4.9 ± 0.4),
high levels of lactic acid and acetic acid, and a slightly
higher degree of lipid hydrolysis. Concentrates of well-fed
algae had a higher pH (7.4 ± 0.2) and another pattern of
fermentation products with mainly acetic acid, succinic
acid, and, to a smaller extent, lactic acid and propionic
acid. The effect of the harvest method was smaller, with,
most often, higher lactic acid and acetic acid levels for
algae harvested by continuous centrifugation than for those
obtained by batch centrifugation. In conclusion, nutrient
limitation, a well-known method to enhance algae lipid
levels, can impact several quality attributes of algae
during their wet storage.},
