Resumen
Objetivo: Investigar técnicas biológicas para purificar biogás. Metodología: El biogás con bajo contenido de dióxido de carbono fue burbujeado en dos soluciones acuosas que contenían cianobacterias filamentosas de diferentes cepas de Leptolyngbya sp. Luego, los resultados obtenidos fueron comparados contra un blanco. Resultados y Concluiones: El biogás que fue parcialmente purificado redujo su contenido de dióxido de carbono en una proporción de 20 % a < 10 % luego de estar en contacto con cianobacterias. A la vez, el oxígeno producido durante la fotosíntesis se mantuvo por debajo de los límites de explosión para la mezcla metano-oxígeno. En contraste, el blanco usado en el ensayo se saturó de dióxido de carbono, causando una caída en el pH conforme pasaba el tiempo. El contenido de metano en el biogás purificado, cuya pureza fue medida con un método volumétrico, superó el 90 %. Las dos cepas de cianobacteria usadas tenían una composición en base seca de proteína ? 25 % y en lípidos < 2 %.
