海洋微生物在进化过程中发挥着高度多样化的作用：它们定义了海洋和大气的化学性质。在过去的几十年中，具有新颖设计的生物反应器已成为研究海洋微生物学和生态学的重要工具，包括：海洋微生物培养和深海生物过程表征;独特的生化产品形成和强化;海洋废物处理和清洁能源生产。本文简要介绍了生物反应器技术在海洋微生物学中的应用现状以及反应器设计中应考虑的关键参数。此外，当我们看到世界沿海地区不断增长的人口和污染时，迫切需要找到可持续的做法，既有利于刺激经济，又有利于自然环境。在这里，我们展望了一些可能性，创新的生物反应器技术可以应用于提高能源生产和粮食生产，而不损害当地的海洋生态系统。
Marine micro-organisms have been playing highly diverse roles over evolutionary time: they have defined the chemistry of the oceans and atmosphere. During the last decades, the bioreactors with novel designs have become an important tool to study marine microbiology and ecology in terms of: marine microorganism cultivation and deep-sea bioprocess characterization; unique bio-chemical product formation and intensification; marine waste treatment and clean energy generation. In this review we briefly summarize the current status of the bioreactor technology applied in marine microbiology and the critical parameters to take into account during the reactor design. Furthermore, when we look at the growing population, as well as, the pollution in the coastal areas of the world, it is urgent to find sustainable practices that beneficially stimulate both the economy and the natural environment. Here we outlook a few possibilities where innovative bioreactor technology can be applied to enhance energy generation and food production without harming the local marine ecosystem.
