Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide the title bioreactor so designed that a stationary bed for fixing biocatalyst within a horizontal cylindrical tank, and the tank is revolved around the axis while a culture medium is ensured to flow inwardly to attach the biocatalyst to the entire range of the stationary bed surface, thereby improving productivity. CONSTITUTION:A cylindrical tank 2 is revolved in a horizontal state. A culture medium fed through a feed pipe 9 is fed via a nozzle 28 into a mesh 22 set up concentrically with the tank 2, flows through a carrier packed within the mesh 22 in the radial direction inwardly, and recovered with a recovering pipe 26. As the tank 2 is revolving, a biocatalyst made to flow into the tank 2 together with the culture medium comes into contact with the entire range of the surface area of the carrier (stationary bed) and will adhere thereto uniformly and in high density, thereby enhancing the metabolic activity of the biocatalyst and improving productivity.

Bioreactors for fermentation or culturing of animal and plant cells include a fluidized bed type in which a carrier on which cells, enzymes, yeast, microorganisms, etc. (hereinafter collectively referred to as biocatalysts) are immobilized is maintained in a suspended state; There is a fixed bed type in which a tower or column is filled with a carrier on which is immobilized. Furthermore, fixed bed bioreactors are of the hollow fiber type using so-called hollow fibers such as hollow fibers as carriers, granular carriers such as foam glass, three-dimensional network carriers such as porous ceramics, honeycomb carriers, or multilayer flat plates. It is classified as a packed bed type using a carrier. As shown in FIG. 5, an example of a packed bed bioreactor is a bioreactor in which a cylindrical tank is filled with a granular carrier on which a biocatalyst is immobilized, and a culture medium is supplied upward from the bottom of the tank. In this type of bioreactor, the flow of the medium is close to an extrusion flow, and the packed bed consists of a mobile phase of flowing medium and a stationary phase (filling phase) with no flow at all.

However, in the case of the above-mentioned conventional fixed-bed bioreactor, as shown in FIG. 6, more biocatalysts adhere to the upper side of the support, and the adhesion density of the biocatalyst to the lower side of the support is small. Further, as the outlet of the bioreactor approaches, cell growth is inhibited due to a decrease in the concentration of nutrients and dissolved oxygen in the medium, and an increase in the concentration of waste products. For this reason, there is a problem that the production efficiency of products by the bioreactor is low. Such a problem similarly occurs in a horizontal bioreactor shown in FIG. 5, which is simply oriented horizontally.
