Reactor plant and process for culturing phototropic microorganisms with a reactor vessel and a photosynthetic module, which are connected with one another in a circulation circuit by a pump and can be controlled via a control unit, where in the circulation circuit or in the reactor vessel, a homogenizer is provided, where a light-intensity control of the photosynthetic module is provided, and where a bypass of the circulation circuit or of the reactor vessel with a filter device which is arranged externally of the reactor vessel for separating off extracellular products during the fermentation is provided.

Reactor plant and process for culturing phototropic microorganisms

A bioreactor for culturing microorganisms which has a reactor vessel, a plurality of gas-introduction tubes and a gas-introduction system for introducing gas into a culture medium in the gas-introduction tubes via injectors, wherein the gas-introduction tubes are connected by their respective lower end, in the vertical direction, to the reactor vessel and by their opposite upper end to the upper end of an upright vessel which is likewise connected by its lower end to the reactor vessel, and at the upper end of the upright vessel an expansion vessel is arranged.
