Loop reactors are used in place of batch stirred tank reactors in a variety of applications including chlorination, ethoxylation, hydrogenation and polymerization. A loop reactor is typically much smaller than a batch reactor producing the same amount of product.

See lessIn an airlift bioreactor, the spent gases released from the liquid are called
Airlift reactors (ALRs) are pneumatically agitated bioreactors where the injection of a gas stream into a specific reactor compartment, the riser, causes the reaction broth to circulate between the riser and an interconnected downcomer compartment containing a smaller (or negligible) gas phase.

See lessWhich of the following is correct for the prediction of time requirement in a batch fermenter?
Batch fermentation is what is described as a 'closed system', whereby the substrate and producing microorganism are added to the system at time zero and are not removed until the fermentation is complete. This represents the simplest and most commonly employed method of fermentation for the productiRead more

See lessThe increased air flow rate in bubble column fermenter can cause excessive foaming and high retention of air bubbles in the column which
Aerobic fermentations are known to be prone to excessive foaming due to surface-active substances in the culture broth

See lessThe region of an airlift bioreactor in which the liquid travels in a downward direction is called the
The disengagement zone can add volume to the reactor, reducing the foaming to minimize recirculation of bubbles through the down-comer. The sudden widening at the top of the reactor slows the bubble velocity and thus disengages the bubbles from the liquid flow.
