BIOLOGICAL LOADING UNIT Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC C02F11/04 C02F3/10 

FIELD: biotechnology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to biotechnology and can be used as biomass carrier mainly in anaerobic bioreactors intended for processing organic wastes of animal and vegetable origin to produce organic fertilizers and biogas production. Unit contains modules for populating with microorganisms, which are formed from vertically oriented tubular elements fastened along longitudinal surfaces. Modules are arranged in layers. Elements of modules located in adjacent layers are offset in horizontal plane by half of transverse dimension of element and have gap between layers. Effective mixing of biomass due to spreading of raw material in the gap between modules, as well as due to separation of raw materials into partial flows when ingress of raw materials in elements of lower layer, located with axial displacement. Elements of modules are made of polymer material with microporous structure providing through penetration of microorganisms.

EFFECT: faster process of processing biomass by improving mixing of biomass and increasing the number of microorganisms in the volume of the block.
