Abstract: |
Hairy
roots have been successfully cultivated in a variety of reactor
configurations. Nutrient mist reactors have been found specially suited to
grow these roots because of its easy operation, high oxygen concentration,
lack of shear, low pressure, ease in manipulating the gas composition,
effective gas exchange in a densely growing biomass and ease of scaling up.
In present work, a mathematical model has been developed to study the effect
of variation of packing fraction and liquid film thickness on growth rate,
liquid hold up and held up liquid concentration of nutrients. The simulation
of developed model equations for the nutrient mist reactor is done with the help
of MATLAB software. |
