| Abstract |
| Harmful algae blooming(HAB) is transient increases or accumulations of algae in river, reservoir and marine environments that cause some degree of negative effect to aqutatic systems or human health. Some algae such as cyanobacteria naturally produce toxins. Cyanobacteria in freshwater systems form high biomass blooms and may produce toxins, and have impacted human health, destroyed aquatic organisms and harmed fishes and other industries in Korea and worldwide. To control HAB effectively, physical, chemical, and biological techniques can be applied directly. However, application of this single treatment technique is very likely to cause secondary pollution problems in the aquatic ecosystem. Therefor, as suggested in this study, it is considered that HAB will be controlled in an eco-friendly and highly efficient manner by using a hybrid- technology that applies appropriate processing techniques to each stage of algae initial occurring and algae generation. In other word, it will be possible to restore ecological function and contribute to sustainable water quality management by spreading environmentally friendly technologies through the commercialization of environmentally friendly technologies. In order to do this, research on biological methods and chemical salvation methods, in which economics and application cases are continuously ensured, must be pursued. It is also necessary to construct an early warning system for algae that allows for more systematic monitoring so that an effective control method for the occurrence of algae can be applied. |
