METHODS FOR PURIFYING WATER IN BIOLOGICAL MANNER BY USING ALGAE OF HYDRODICTYON GENUS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for purifying water in a biological manner by using algae of genus Hydrodictyon or activated algae of genus Hydrodictyon and to a manufacturing method thereof. The algae of the present invention grow rapidly and are easy to be handled and collected. Therefore, not only the total amount of nitrogen/the total amount of phosphorus can be removed more economically and eco-friendly than an existing method, but the algae of the present invention can be used for various types of water purification systems such as a plane culturing tank, a circulation culturing tank, and a mesh culturing system. In addition, according to the present invention, the algae of the present invention can be cultured by providing waste carbon dioxide when the algae are cultured. Therefore, the algae of the present invention can contribute to reduction in social overhead costs such as costs for processing waste materials. In addition, biomass, generated after a water treatment process, can be used as a raw material source for biochemical industries to make economic profit. Accordingly, the present invention is expected to be foundation for establishing a true green growth technology, comprehensively reflecting environment/resource depletion/industrial development, by directly and indirectly contributing to entry into a water treatment market, a CDM business, a biomass market, a fermentation raw material market, a market of reused chemical materials such as biofuel and bioplastic materials and so on. The method for purifying water in a biological manner by using algae of genus Hydrodictyon or activated algae of genus Hydrodictyon includes the following steps: producing the activated algae of genus Hydrodictyon; (b) culturing the activated algae of genus Hydrodictyon; and (c) measuring the amount of nutrient salt.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2016
