The results show that the efficient concentration of biquaternary ammonium salt to control the two algaes in 96 h is 0.8 mg·L-1 and 0.4 mg·L-1, respectively. It is found that biquaternary ammonium salt has high efficiency and longer duration of action in the removal and control of algae. Biquaternary ammonium salt might be an excellent algaecide to control HAB.展开更多
