Abstract

The present invention refers to a reactor for the culture of photosynthetic micro­- organisms or plant cells suspended in a suitable culture medium, comprising a culture chamber made of a material which is transparent to photosynthetically active radiation, a large-meshed grid structure (2) suitable to contain the culture chamber, and an external support framework (1,3).
