Fed-Batch Reactor
A Fed-Batch Reactor is a type of industrial vessel used to produce products like medicines, enzymes, or biofuels. It starts with initial ingredients, and over time, nutrients or substrates are added gradually without removing contents. This controlled feeding allows microorganisms or cells inside to grow efficiently and produce the desired output. The process offers better control over conditions, leading to higher yields and quality than simple batch processes. It’s commonly used in biotechnology for producing complex substances where precise management of growth conditions is essential.
