Abstract

A recirculation loop and device for movement of contents of a bioreactor vessel is described. The recirculation loop provides distinct zones of temperature, gas extraction and/or gas infusion control of the bioreactor contents during passage through the loop. The recirculation conduit within the distinct temperature, gas extraction and/or gas infusion control zones of the recirculation loop may contain a high surface area to volume aspect ratio thereby facilitating heat transfer as well as gas extraction and infusion. The recirculation loop device provides independent control of at least these three process control variables of a biochemical reaction, namely reactant dispersion, reactant temperature, and reactant gas concentration, in aerobic and anaerobic biochemical reaction processes.
