First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for processing biogas, wherein the biogas contains carbon dioxide, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a reactor train, wherein the reactor train comprises at least two cylindrical plastic tanks, wherein the tanks contain algae;
dissolving the carbon dioxide into water;
moving the carbon dioxide saturated water through multiple valves, wherein at least one of the valves is operatively connected to a fluid conveying pipe, wherein the pipe is operatively connected to the plastic tanks; and
,converting the carbon dioxide to organic molecules and oxygen by moving the carbon dioxide saturated water through the algae.

Abstract
A plastic, disposable reactor (“PDR”) system is presented that will allow growth of microorganisms at various temperatures and pressures cost effectively. In this invention, the use of the system for aquaculture of algae is presented. The use of the reactor will allow carbon sequestration and significant production of a renewable energy source. The incorporation of recycled materials in various components of the plant also benefits the environment.
