Separation of yeasts by addition of flocculent cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Separation of yeast cells using a co-flocculation process was investigated. Co-flocculation is a fast process (within few minutes), occurs in a broad pH range (3.0–8.0) and requires a small amount of calcium (0.1 mM). Agitation affects yeast aggregation; however, an agitation between 60 rev/min and...
