DEFINITION

Classification: 435/293.1

Tubular or plug flow bioreactor:

(under subclass 289.1) Apparatus wherein fluid or fluidized reagents are continuously pumped through substantially tubular structures.

(1) Note. This form of reactor typically creates unequal conditions between two separated points in the reactor. For example, the concentrations of reactants at the inlet of such a reactor change as the reactants flow through the tubular member.
