METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A REACTOR ELEMENT OF A PHOTO BIOREACTOR, A PHOTO BIOREACTOR AND A REACTOR ELEMENT THEREFOR

摘要

The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a reactor element for receiving a mixture of liquid and phototropic organisms, comprising: providing a sheet of base material for the reactor element, the sheet having edge portions (5, 6) and a central portion (4) formed between the edge portions; - placing the sheet of base material on the surface of the site where the bioreactor is to be provided so that the central portion forms the bottom of the reactor element; - arranging the side portions of the sheet of base material in a substantially upright position, so that the side portions form the side walls of the reactor element. The invention also relates to a reactor element being made of a sheet of base material, the sheet comprising edge portions and a central portion formed between the edge portions, wherein in use the central portion forms the bottom of the reactor element and the side portions extend in a substantially upright position so as to form the side walls of the reactor element.
