Does anyone have any experience of solids load (mg/l of solids) derived from Algae in Potable Water Plant supplies. I am looking for a solids load predictor based on cell count or Chlorophyl A value.

Is the solids load heavily dependant on type of Algae or is there a general correlation between cell count/Chlorophyl A and solids load?

Is there a correlation between cell count and Chloropyl A value?

Hope someone can help.
