Bioreactor Diagram - Lab Equipment for Cell Culture and Fermentation #3858982 (License: Personal Use)

This diagram illustrates a standard stirred-tank bioreactor, featuring a cylindrical vessel with a central impeller for mixing, a gas inlet at the top (often for oxygen or sterile air), and ports for sampling, pH/DO monitoring, and temperature control. The vessel walls include jacketed sections for thermal regulation, and the liquid phase represents nutrient-rich medium supporting microbial or mammalian cell growth. Such reactors are foundational in biopharmaceutical production, biofuel synthesis, and academic research.

Used in educational materials, technical documentation, and biotech company websites to explain fermentation systems; targets students, researchers, and engineers seeking visual understanding of bioreactor operation and design.
