Batch dissolved air flotation is employed as the solid/liquid separation technique in the recovery of flocculated mussel protein solutions. Maximum flocculated suspended solids recoveries are obtained in all cases at an air/solids ratio of 0.02. Results show that the performances of the flocculating agents used, sulphuric acid, ligninsulphonic acid, Calgon and chitosan, are pH and dosage dependent with chitosan, having a protein recovery of 80%, being the superior material.
