Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention provides a photo bioreactor comprising an aqueous liquid comprising a photosynthetic culture and light distributors (30). Each light distributor has a surface arranged to receive light and a tapered surface arranged to emit at least part of the received light. At least part of the tapered surface is submerged in the aqueous liquid comprising the photosynthetic culture. Light may be distributed efficiently in the aqueous liquid comprising the photosynthetic culture by relatively simple and cheap means. The reactor allows a high illuminated volume fraction.
