제목 In-situ Removal of Nitrogen and Phosphorus for the Prevention of Harmful Algal Blooms in River
초록 Harmful algal blooms (HABs) due to water eutrophication are becoming more serious in Korean rivers. There are many attempts to prevent HABs and the most effective method is to reduce nitrogen and phosphorus load from point and non-point source. However, this method is hard to apply in large area and is very expensive. On the other hand, microalgae have been utilized in wastewater treatment to reduce nitrogen and phosphorus level. In this study, ability to remove nitrogen and phosphorus in artificial river water by Euglena gracilis in permeable reactor was investigated. Permeable reactor keeps microalgae cells inside while let nutrients in artificial river water diffuse in for the growth of Euglena. The highest growth rate of Euglena in permeable reactor is 1 d-1at day 3. It is concluded that cultivating microalgae in permeable reactor could be an effective method to reduce nitrogen and phosphorus levels in river water.
