Fermentation Reactor Analysis

 

 

A Batch fermentation Reactor by design concept

can be either homogeneous or heterogeneous. The differentiation of

these two types or modes of operation of fermentation reactors is in

the manner of dispersion of the microbes in the reaction-mixture, broth

or Mash: The reactor design or mode of operation is deemed homogeneous

if the fermentation microbes are simply mixed into the reaction

mixture, and The reactor design or mode of operation is deemed

heterogeneous in the cases for which the microbes are immobilized on an

effective carrier and immersed within in the broth.....As is well known

the adoption of a heterogeneous reactor provides both advantages and

disadvantages.
