Gas fermentation reactors
Purpose-built anaerobic bioreactors — tall bubble-column loop vessels, hollow-fiber cell-retention skids, and multi-stage gas cleanup trains — that let acetogenic bacteria convert steel-mill and refinery waste gas (CO, CO2, H2) into ethanol at commercial scale, one plant already running at 210,000 tonnes/year of biofuel-grade output.
