Abstract: A bioreactor includes a support structure and a translucent liner. A containing system of bioreactors includes a plurality of bioreactors. A contained bioreactor system includes a plurality of containing systems of interconnected bioreactors, an industrial blower, an air filter, a microbial filter, a gas delivery system, and a harvesting station. A method of reducing carbon dioxide emissions includes delivering carbon dioxide to a bioreactor where the bioreactor includes a support structure and a liner where the bioreactor includes media containing microbes. A method of harvesting microorganisms includes emptying the solution and removing a sieve from the harvesting unit.
