Ship ballast water has been identified as one of four major environmental threats by the international maritime organization. This paper presents a portable on-site rapid detection system of microalgae in ship ballast water. The system consists of a microfluidic chip platform, LED light source and drive systems, optical detection system, ARM software and hardware system, power supply system and so on. Microalgae particles can go through the detection area inside the micro channels one by one by using a sheath fluid focus. The resulting chlorophyll fluorescence is converted to the electrical pulse signal by photodiode. The experimental results show that the system can quickly and accurately detect the ballast water living microalgae concentration. The minimum detectable microalgae size is about 3μm (mean diameter). This system has some advantages such as miniaturized, portable, fast, accurate and label free, and has great potential for on-site rapid detection of ship ballast water.
