The pilot bioreactor with total volume of 30 liters is a bioreactor for classical microbiological processes with special cultivation conditions. The main features of this bioreactor are operation under vacuum and under overpressure (operating pressure from -1 to 3 bar), the use of load cells for vessel weighting control and optical density sensor.
Main Features of this bioreactor:
– sensors used: Pt100 temperature sensor, sterilizable pH sensor, sterilizable pO2 sensor, defoaming sensor with height adjustment of the electrode, pressure sensor, optical density sensor, load cells
– electrical lid lifting system
– air supply to the bioreactor through a rotameter, as well as through an automatic mass flow meter (MFC)
– condenser for condensation of evaporated moisture, a sterilizable filter, and heating of the exhaust gas filter on the gas outlet line from the bioreactor.
– automatic cascade control of the dissolved oxygen level – through changing the speed of the agitator, the air supply speed.
– Operator’s workplace (remote) with a personal computer
