In this module, you will study the definition of the bioreactor, its basic features, and identify consumer products made by biotechnology. The advantages of biotechnology over chemical synthesis, efficient bioprocess, and various considerations in bioreactor design are all covered in this section.

In this module, discover how to measure cell concentration using direct and indirect methods of growth kinetics. Also, learn to determine the productivity of a given reactor volume. Unstructured and distributed empirical model and the different phases of batch growth kinetics will also be explained.

This assessment will enable you to review your learning so you can determine your knowledge and understanding of module 1 - 2 of the course: - Diploma in Bioreactor Design

Discover how to design a simple fed-batch process, the advantages of fed-batch reactors, and the objective of running a fed-batch operation. You will be able to determine the reactor volume, product concentration, dilution rate, and amount of biomass and more.

In this module, you will learn how to design ideal continuous stirred tank reactors, and compare the productivity between a batch and continuous bioreactor. The relationship between cell density, nutrient concentration, and dilution rate will be explained.

This assessment will enable you to review your learning so you can determine your knowledge and understanding of module 4 - 5 of the course: - Diploma in Bioreactor Design
