Abstract
On this study, removal effect of microcystin released from Microcysits, blue-green algae causing waterbloom in most of east Asia such as Korea, Japan, China, Russia, by photolysis was investigated. Removal effect of photolysis for chl-a was high because 95% of chl-a was removed 30 minutes after ultraviolet was Lighted. UV_254 and UV_260, by-product of algae, however, were not removed properly. For over 90% of removal effect, microcystin-LR needed to light ultraviolet more than 120 minutes and microcystin-RR 30 minutes.
