In this module, you will start by learning the translation of biotechnological results to different scales to test a given technology. The fundamental principles like geometrical and dynamic similarity and criteria for scale-up will be discussed. Learn dimensionless mixing factor and non-ideal reactors design and analysis.

In this module, learn about the ideal reactors such as plug and mixed flow reactors, the resident time distribution and how to find it by experiment will be discussed. Familiarize yourself with the steady-state assumption of closed vessel boundary and discover how to find out the misbehaving plug and mixed flow systems.
