ABSTRACT:
A reactor for carrying out biological reactions by means of biocatalysts includes a base which houses an agitator unit and suitable monitor and control devices and a securely attachable lid. Interposed between the lid and the base is an intermediate part in form of a vat which for application as fluid-bed reactor and/or fixed-bed reactor includes at its lower end a gas bubbles-permeable support for a biocatalyst-laden matrix or biocatalyst matrix. Extending from the upper area of the intermediate part toward the base is a circulation line which cooperates with the agitator unit which is designed as circulating pump.
