I think that should be methanotrophic not methanogenic, if you are discussing the removal of methane from the air.

Both techniques require fans. However, there are many things that pass through air naturally, such as wind turbine blades and building roofs in windy areas. Could these not be used as 'substrates' for the necessary biological or chemical reactions?
