Bioreactors were first used in the fermentation industry. The bioreactor used in the fermentation industry is actually a fermentor. The other is an enzyme reactor with immobilized enzyme or immobilized cell as catalyst. The world's largest fermentor is 100 meters high, 7 meters in diameter and 4,000 cubic meters in volume. Seen from a distance, it looks like a spectacular circular tower.

Can be used for preparing interferon, insulin, biological steel and human growth hormone. ......

I'm not sure what the benefits are.

Bioreactor is a device which provides a good reaction environment for cell culture (or fermentation) or enzyme reaction by using biocatalyst, and is usually called fermentation tank or enzyme reactor. The aeration tank or anaerobic digestion tank used for biological treatment of sewage can also be used as a kind of bioreactor. Bioreactor is the key equipment in the process of biological reaction, and its structure, operation mode and operating conditions are closely related to the quality, conversion rate and energy consumption of biotechnology products.

The bioreactor sounds strange, but the basic principle is quite simple. The stomach is a complex bioreactor, which is used to process food in the human body. Food is digested by various enzymes in the stomach and becomes nutrients that we can absorb. Bioreactor in bioengineering is a reaction device designed to produce or detect various chemicals by simulating the functions of organisms in vitro. In other words, a bioreactor is a device system that uses the biological functions of enzymes or organisms (such as microorganisms) to carry out biochemical reactions in vitro, and it is a biological function simulator, such as fermentor, immobilized enzyme or immobilized cell reactor.

Based on the extensive application of immobilized enzyme, it is found that natural cells themselves have multifunctional series reaction systems. It is a shortcut to immobilize cells by physical or chemical methods with enzymes or enzyme systems. Immobilized cell reactor is like a "life activity function propeller". Immobilized cell technology began in 1970s, and its practical application has surpassed that of immobilized enzyme. For example, the United States, Europe and Japan all adopt immobilized bacteria column bed process to produce high-fructose syrup on a large scale.
