Is very important to develop cyanobacterial removal methods and prevent them from reaching the water treatment plant. The objective of this work was to study the efects of diferents doses of chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid and percitric acid on the cells viability and chlorophyll-a (chlo-a) in a M. aeruginosa culture during 72 hours exposure. The intial conditions of M. aeruginosa culture were: pH value beetwen 8 to 9 and remained without changes during the experiment; initial chlo-a concentration around 1500-2000 µg.L-1; and cells concentration around 9.105-1.106 cells.mL-1. Chlorine (5 mg.L-1), percitric acid (30 and 50 mg.L-1) and hydrogen peroxide (150 mg.L-1) produced 99, 94, 95 and 84% of non viable cells of M. aeruginosa, respectively. Dose of 7.5 mg.L-1 of peracetic acid produce a 54% of non viable cells. Degradation of 3 logaritmic cycles of chlo-a were reached by doses of 3 and 5 mg.L-1 of chlorine, 50 mg.L-1 of percitric acid and 150 mg.L-1 of hidrogen peroxide and only 2 logaritmic was reached by 7.5 mg.L-1 of peracetic acid. The most efective oxidant doses was 5 mg.L-1 of chlorine.
