Methanol, a common air pollutant, can be converted to CO₂ by biofiltration. In turn, biofilter CO₂ streams, contributing to the greenhouse effect, could represent a zero-cost carbon source for microalgal production. To assess the potential of the combination of both bioprocesses, cultivation of Arthrospira maxima, a major source of added-value natural products, was carried out with three different carbon sources (bicarbonate mineral medium, CO₂ from ambient air, and CO₂ from a methanol biofilter outlet).

用于挥发性有机化合物增值的新型串联生物过滤器光生物反应器系统的概念证明：甲醇蒸汽的矿化以及使用二氧化碳作为最大节旋藻生长的碳源

甲醇是一种常见的空气污染物，可通过生物过滤转化为 CO ₂。反过来，导致温室效应的生物过滤器 CO ₂流可以代表微藻生产的零成本碳源。为了评估两种生物过程组合的潜力，使用三种不同的碳源（碳酸氢盐矿物培养基、_来自环境空气的 CO ₂和来自甲醇生物过滤器出口）。
