APPARATUS FOR CULTIVATION OF MICROORGANISMS Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: equipment for cultivation of microorganisms.

SUBSTANCE: the invention presents an apparatus for cultivation of microorganisms and is dealt with the equipment for cultivation of microorganisms and may be used in different industries and also in exploratory practice. The apparatus includes a horizontally located tubular fermentative container, devices for aeration and mixings of a culture broth and the heat exchanger. Each device contains a body connected to the fermentative container and a circulation circuit for the aerating gas and the culture broth consisting of pipelines, a gas-liquid mixtures pulsating device, a replaceable nozzle and a gas consumption regulator mounted on one of the pipelines. The fermentative container is made out of a transparent heat-resistant glass. At butts of the fermentative container there are protective screens made out of a perforated hydrophobic material. The invention ensures an efficient mass exchange by a uniform distribution of the aerating gas in the whole volume of the culture broth and also an increase of productivity of the apparatus.

EFFECT: the invention ensures an efficient mass exchange in the whole volume of the culture broth and an increase of productivity of the apparatus.
