This thesis is going to determinate the amount of nitrogen from the cyanobacteria sample by Kjeldahl method. The cyanobacteria sample was collected by Saloy method from Kuralanjärvi with Helsinki Engineer Office in the summer at 2008. Kuralajärvi is a lake that has a terrible problem with cyanobacteria near Naantali, in Finland. Also some other methods for controlling and removing cyanobacteria will be discussed. The damage cyanobacteria brought to the environment and human beings, the reason of the harmful algae blooms, and the way to control its blooming by technology management will be researched.
