Toward sustainable phycocyanin production using halo-alkaliphilic cyanobacteria: from direct air capture of carbon dioxide to biorefinery

Phycocyanin is a natural blue pigment from cyanobacteria such as Limnospira platensis, also known as “Spirulina.” Its production is costly and faces sustainability challenges due to water needs, carbon dioxide emissions, and lack of operational stability. Here, we review the use of halo-alkaliphilic...
