In California, the San Diego Center for Algal Biotechnology is using the Algae Harvesting Technology Optimized (AHTO) dissolved air flotation system (DAF) from World Water Works at its testing facility in the Imperial Valley. It says the system harvests up to 9,000 gallons of algae-laden water can be processed per minute, at a 95 percent capture rate, yielding up to 20 percent algae concentrations.
