An apparatus, such as a large fermentation chamber, for growing organisms such as bacteria or yeast that are used in the biotechnological production of substances such as pharmaceuticals, antibodies, or vaccines, or for the bioconversion of organic waste.

∙ 13y agoEnzymes bioreactors are reactors in which enzymatic reactions are carried out. Since enzymatic reactions require carefully maintained pH, temperature and substrate level conditions, these bioreactors are equipped with the appropriate instrumentation that allow the operator to monitor all these conditions and ensure timely completion of the reaction to obtain the desired product
Those bioreactors which are based on suspended particles of immobilized enzyme are called enzyme bioreactors. These are designed with the bilogically active speicies either immobilized to porous particles or to the surface of membranes or hollow fibers. The material use for enzyme immobelization is called carrier matrix are usually inert polymer of inorganic amterials.

What are the functions of the deuterium and tritium atoms in nuclear reactors?
All current nuclear reactors are fission reactors, tritium has no function in a fission reactor, in standard water moderated reactors deuterium also has no function, in heavy water moderated reactors deuterium is the moderator. If we are ever able to make a fusion reactor, deuterium/tritium mix will be used as fuel.
What can be found on the moon that can be used for nuclear reactors?
There may be Radium, Thorium, Uranium or even Plutonium which can be used in nuclear reactors.
Isotope of uranium used in nuclear reactors?
Uranium 235 is the most important isotope of uranium; it is a fissionable isotope used in HWR, PWR, BWR, research reactors and other types of reactors. But it is rare, only 0.72% of natural Uranium is this isotope.The more plentiful Uranium 238 isotope is only fertile not fissionable; it can only be used in fast reactors to breed Plutonium, which is fissionable. Isotopes of plutonium 239Pu and 241Pu are highly fissionable and importants for nuclear fuels.
What is the Difference between enzyme and regulatory enzyme?
An enzyme is one kind of protein that can catalyze a specific reaction whereas a regulatory enzyme is the enzyme which can regulate a series of reaction which undergo in the living organism. So we can say every enzyme is not a regulatory one but the regulatory enzymes are obviously a special kind of enzyme.
What mineral is probably the source for radioactive isotopes derived from nuclear reactors?
uranium is probably the source for radioactive isotopes derived from nuclear reactors
How are nuclear reactors used in nuclear reactors?
Well, as nuclear reactors are nuclear reactors, nuclear reactors are not used inside nuclear reactors.
What rhymes with reactors?
factors rhyme with reactors tractors rhyme with reactors actors rhyme with reactors
Do fusion powers nuclear reactors?
No. Our reactors are fission reactors. We haven't yet mastered fusion reactors for power.
Are there more fast breeder or thermal nuclear reactors?
Most nuclear reactors are thermal-neutron reactors. A few fast breeder reactors have been built, but not many.
Are lasers used for nuclear reactors?
No, at least not for power reactors
Is power reactor a thermal reactor?
All power reactors are thermal reactors except few ones that are fast nuclear reactors.
Are all-stars fusion reactors?
Yes, stars are fusion reactors.
What kind of thermal reactors is plasma found in?
Thermal plasma reactors
How many nuclear reactors does France have?
There are 59 nuclear reactors in France.
What process do nuclear reactors use?
Nuclear reactors use nuclear fission.
The country with the most number of nuclear reactors?
The US with 100 (I am uncertain if this is all reactors or just power reactors though, there are several small reactors operated to make medical isotopes, etc. or for research purposes of various kinds).
How many nuclear reactors are in the world?
There are over 400 nuclear reactors around the world.
