The normal filtration of particulate matter has to be done before you can dump it into the environment with these guys but also their natural systems forced them to eat various oxide compounds. The proposed ideas are still floating whether or not it would be feasible to tailor them to digest NOx and SOx as well. The bonuses are you don't have to feed them as much, but if you get out of kilter with concentrations you could whipe out half your batch(not enough food).
