The actual environment of ballast water is simulated through the cultivation of chlorella. The filtration and absorption of the algae in the simulation of ballast water is taken by the ceramic filter, then kill the remaining algae with the UV radiation. The samples are taken respectively before and after filtration and UV radiation equipments, and the algae removal rate is analyzed by counting on the algae. The experiment proved that this combined method had a good result in treating the algae in the ballast water.
