Description

FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a cross-sectional view of an extruded media for supporting growth biology within a biological reactor wherein the plane of the cross-sectional view is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and the view is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the cross-sectional view and substantially along the longitudinal axis of the media;

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating the left side view of the extruded media of FIG. 1, the right side view of the media being a mirror image; and,

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an isometric view of the extruded media of FIG. 1; and,

FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a cross-sectional view of a plurality of the extruded media of FIG. 1 wherein the plane of the cross-sectional view is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the media and the view is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the cross-sectional view and substantially along the longitudinal axis of the media.

The broken lines of the left side view, the isometric view, and the plurality of media are included for the purpose of illustration and form no part of the claimed design.

The claimed design is shown fragmented in FIGS. 2 and 3 to indicate indeterminate length.

Claims
