METHOD FOR THE CULTURE OF MICROORGANISMS AND PHOTOBIOREACTOR USED IN SAME

摘要

The invention comprises a transparent cylindrical vertical body (1) and a base (2) supporting the body (1) and having an outlet in the lower part thereof, which outlet is connected to an outlet pipe (3) that opens into a recirculation pipe (4) connected to an upper inlet (6) in the upper part of the body (1). According to the invention, injection means (5) inject air and optionally CO2 into the recirculation pipe (4), producing a vortex (11) inside the body (1). In addition, the invention relates to a method for obtaining biomass from microalgae using this photobioreactor.
