The following results were obtained during the experiments: The utilization of the flue gas for a photobioreactor agitation and CO2 supply was proved to be convenient. A growth rate of algal cultures on the flue gas was even higher when comparing with the control (pure CO2 in air). The toxicological analysis of the produced biomass showed only a slight excess of mercury while all the others compounds (other heavy metals, PAHs, PCDD/Fs and PCBs) were below the limits required by foodstuff legislation Workplace Institute of Microbiology Contact Eliška Spurná, eliska.spurna@biomed.cas.cz, Tel.: 241 062 231 Year of Publishing 2009
