Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) are becoming a continuous challenge to the ecosystem and human health. Cyanotoxins are considered as a group of natural toxins, found to be hazardous to terrestrial mammals than aquatic biota. Cyanotoxins caused by cyanobacteria pose a risk to human health through the exposure or ingestion of contaminated water. Cyanotoxins can be eliminated from water by membrane, adsorption on activated carbon and ozonation. A study at QEERI will investigate the impact of Ozone Based Advanced oxidation on the removal of Cyanotoxins.
