Abstract
A bioreactor for growing micro-organisms, has a reaction chamber containing a reaction mixture with a reaction medium and micro-organisms. A draft tube is arranged inside the reaction chamber, which has a gas inlet, an inlet for the reaction mixture at its first end, and an outlet for the reaction mixture at its second end. The bioreactor includes means for generating flow of the reaction mixture within the reaction chamber and a first blade structure arranged inside the reaction chamber, surrounding the draft tube. The first blade structure has blades arranged at, at least one of an angle α1 with respect to a direction defined by the height of the reaction chamber, or an angle α2 with respect to a direction defined by the height of the reaction chamber. The bioreactor also includes an inlet for reaction medium and an outlet for withdrawing medium with grown micro-organisms.
