Bioreactors living cell growth process

A bioreactor is a device that transforms raw materials into products by means of biological processes conducted by enzymes or living cells.Bioreactors are frequently called fermenters when they generate a product by means of microbial cells, because the growth of microbes in a vessel is commonly called fermentation. There are several different bioreactor designs that can be customized to a desired process.The processing conditions in a reactor, such as temperature, pH, and aeration, depend on the aspects of a particular... 

When bioreactor operation relies on the use of living cells for the production of given goods or biomass, cell growth and maintenance requirements have to be considered. These processes are more complex, since they involve simultaneous substrate consumption, product formation, and cell growth, which can be schematically represented as...
