BIOLOGICAL REACTOR FOR TRANSFORMING GAS-HYDROGEN HYDROCARBONS TO BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE COMPOUNDS Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC C12M1/02 C12M1/04 C12M1/113 C12M1/12 C12M1/36 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: reactor includes a fermentation tank, a heat exchanger, a pump for pumping water from the bottom to the upper cavity of the heat exchanger, a gas permeable polymeric tubular membrane for methane, a gas permeable polymeric tubular air membrane with an aerator function, an air receiver, a methane receiver, a gas-liquid separator, and a control device. Herewith the tubular membranes for methane and air occupy the entire volume of the fermentation tank, are arranged parallel to each other and with a gap between them for a free flow of the working fluid.

EFFECT: increasing the productivity and explosion safety of the biological reactor.
