FLUIDODYNAMIC ELBOW USED IN HORIZONTAL-CIRCUIT BIOREACTORS WITH BUBBLE IMPULSION

摘要

The present invention relates to an agitation/impulsion device and more specifically to a fluidodynamic elbow used in horizontal-circuit bioreactors with bubble impulsion, which comprises a basic structure capable of minimizing dispersions of energy in the course of the passage of the fluid through the impulsion elbow. The impulsion elbow is used in bioreactor tanks, especially tanks for producing microalgae on an industrial scale, and it is capable of drastically reducing the consumption of energy necessary in each production cycle.
