The individual parts of a bioreactor include:
1. Agitator system: This consists of a central driveshaft with impeller blades. The size and design of the blades depend on the product being processed. Baffles are also installed to break the flow caused by the rotating agitator.
2. Foam control system: This helps to control and prevent foam formation during the bioreactor process.
3. Baffles system: Baffles are stationary blades that are installed to break up flow and improve mixing within the bioreactor.
4. pH & temperature control system: This system regulates and maintains the pH and temperature levels within the bioreactor to create optimal conditions for the chemical reaction.
5. Fermenter vessel: This vessel houses the chemical reagents and provides the necessary conditions for the chemical reaction to occur.
6. Aeration system: This system supplies the bioreactor with the necessary oxygen for the growth and metabolism of microorganisms.
7. Impeller system: This is part of the agitator system and consists of impeller blades mounted on the driveshaft. The design and size of the impeller blades vary depending on the product being processed.
These individual parts work together to ensure proper mixing, temperature control, and oxygen supply within the bioreactor, creating optimal conditions for the desired chemical reaction to take place.
