Designing Batch Fermentation
Reactors adopts the seemingly rather complex approach of Random
Media Many Body Problem for the design and analysis of bioreactors,
and yet makes the study and undertaking of such endeavor an
interesting, challenging and intellectually stimulating subject that
every bioreactor engineer should find engaging. Furthermore, the
microbial cells are described as Point Sinks -being sinks for
substrates, and as Point Sources -being sources of the metabolic
products, invariably positing the bioreactors as Random Point Sinks
Sources Media, and consequentially developing a design approach
using Random Media Point Sinks Sources Many Body Problem In developing that approach, Designing Batch Fermentation Reactors simultaneously encourages and enables a rethink of the design of bioreactors culminating in constructing a rational approach to the task. In particular, the design approach elicits the procedure for incorporating reaction mechanism and rate equation of Biochemical Pathways descriptive, as well as the physics and biophysics, of microbial metabolic reactions, into the Bioreactor Design Equations of Balance in consistence with the principles of design and analysis of reactors as practiced in the Chemical and Biochemical Reactor Engineering disciplines.
