Method for propagating photosynthetic microorganisms

Claim 1

A METHOD FOR PROPAGATING UNICELLULAR PHOTOSYNTHETIC MICROORGANISMS COMPRISING PRODUCING AN ELONGATED THIN STREAM OF NUTRIENT SUSPENSION CONTAINING SAID MICROORGANISMS, FLOWING SAID STREAM THROUGH AN ILLUMINATED FIELD OF LIGHTING HAVING A WAVE LENGTH BETWEEN 4,000 AND 7,000 ANGSTROM UNITS THEREBY PRODUCING PERCEPTIBLE LIGHTED AND DARK ZONES IN THE SUSPENSION, AGITATING SAID SUSPENSION TO PRODUCE EDDY CURRENTS TO MOVE PORTIONS OF SAID MICROORGANISMS DIRECTLY INTO CONFRONTATION WITH THE LIGHT IN SAID LIGHTED ZONE FOR ABSORPTION OF THE LIGHT ENERGY, AND TO MOVE OTHER PRTIONS AWAY FROM SAID LIGHTED ZONE THEREBY CAUSING A PERIOD OF DARKNESS FOR THE MICROORGANISM TO EFFICIENTLY UTILIZE THE PREVIOUSLY ABSORBED LIGHT ENERGY, THE CMIROORGANISM WHICH IS THE MEANS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE MICROORGANISMS IN SUSPENSION BEING OUTSIDE THE LIGHTED ZINE FOR AT LEAST TEN TIMES AS LONG AS IT IS WITHIN SAID LIGHTED ZONE.

Claim 2

A METHOD FOR PROPAGATING UNICELLULAR PHOTOSYNTHETIC MICROORGANISMS COMPRISING PRODUCING AN ELONGATED THIN STREAM OF NUTRIENT SUSPENSION CONTAINING SAID MICROORGANISMS, FLOWING SAID STREAM THROUGH AN ILLUMINATED FIELD OF LIGHTING HAVING A WAVE LENGTH BETWEEN 4,000 AND 7,000 ANGSTROM UNITS THEREBY PRODUCING PERCEPTIBLE LIGHTED AND DARK ZONES IN THE SUSPENSION, AGITATING SAID SUSPENSION TO PRODUCE EDDY CURRENTS TO MOVE PORTIONS OF SAID MICROORGANISMS DIRECTLY INTO CONFRONTATION WITH THE LIGHT IN SAID LIGHTED ZONE FOR ABSORPTION OF THE LIGHT ENERGY, AND TO MOVE OTHER PRTIONS AWAY FROM SAID LIGHTED ZONE THEREBY CAUSING A PERIOD OF DARKNESS FOR THE MICROORGANISM TO EFFICIENTLY UTILIZE THE PREVIOUSLY ABSORBED LIGHT ENERGY, THE CMIROORGANISM WHICH IS THE MEANS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE MICROORGANISMS IN SUSPENSION BEING OUTSIDE THE LIGHTED ZINE FOR AT LEAST TEN TIMES AS LONG AS IT IS WITHIN SAID LIGHTED ZONE.
