Mesh size and Water Velocity for The growth of Filamentous Periphytic Algae

The purpose of this study was to evaluate mesh size and water velocity for the growth of filamentous periphytic algae(FPA). The growth experiment was carried out in the constructed pilot waterway system with nutrient-rich treated wastewater. Growth rate of FPA was highest at water velocity about 10 cm/s. The maximum standing crop of FPA was $253\;{\mu}g\;chl.a/cm^{3}$, and an average of the net productivity was $3.92\;mgDW/cm^{2}/day\;or\;25.3\;{\mu}g\;chl.a/cm^{2}/day$. Biomass development and growth rates of FPA were highest at the net with 20mm mesh size during the fall season and 10mm mesh size during the winter season.
