An Introduction to Bioreactor Hydrodynamics and Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer

Beschreibung

This book provides an overview of hydrodynamics and gas-liquid mass transfer operations for various bioreactor configurations. It details a summary of the available information for various bioreactors, reviews the relevant theories and experimental procedures, and provides a procedure for bioreactor selection. The book reviews the problems of bioreactor selection globally while considering all bioreactor options rather than concentrating on one specific bioreactor type. As such, the book has numerous uses ranging from providing introductory material for those new to bioreactor applications to summarizing the various options for improved bioreactor operations and selection for those designing bioreactor applications. Finally the book explains hydrodynamics and gas-liquid mass transfer operations in various bioreactors and how bioreactor design can influence desired outcomes.
Reviews and compares the major types of bioreactors, defines their pros and cons, and identifies research needs and figures of merit that have yet to be addressed * Describes common modes of operation in bioreactors * Covers the three common bioreactor types, including stirred-tank bioreactors, bubble column bioreactors, and airlift bioreactors * Details less common bioreactors types, including fixed bed bioreactors and novel bioreactor designs * Discusses advantages and disadvantages of each bioreactor and provides a procedure for optimal bioreactor selection based on current process needs * Reviews the problems of bioreactor selection globally while considering all bioreactor options rather than concentrating on one specific bioreactor type
