Definitions
- photosynthetic organisms comprising:
- At least two agitators rotate in opposing directions. This allows for better mixing and light distribution.
- At least one agitator and desirably each agitator may have an agitator body with a substantially continuous surface that is substantially the same height as the tank. This allows for mixing and light distribution throughout the depth of the tank. At least one agitator and desirably each agitator may have an agitator body with a substantially continuous surface that is substantially the same length as a radius of the tank. That is the agitator extends in a radial direction for a length that is substantially the same as a radius of a tank.
- each agitator has an agitator body which emits light for promoting growth of photo synthetic organisms.
- each agitator may have an agitator body that is made of a substantially light transparent material.
- the agitator body may comprise, for example may be covered with, a light emitting material.
