Red light does not kill algae, it just makes it grow slower.
Our results show that algae grows the best under white light and more in blue light than red light.
The results of this experiment are useful to biofuel producers because they could use white light to increase the growth rate of algae, which in turn produces more biofuel.

Ultraviolet light kills planktonic algae.
When the algae cells are exposed to the bulb's ultraviolet rays, radiation destroys the plants' cellular walls.
UV clarifiers work by destroying the ultrafine planktonic algae.
For the UV Clarifier to work properly, however, follow these guidelines:
Replace bulbs yearly.
Watch your flow rate.
Don't flow too slow.
Ultraviolet clarifiers should actually be one of your last tactics to kill algae.
