“…Ye et al [1] described a novel self-inducing reactor for gas phase substrate utilization to break the barrier on gas-liquid transfer. The gas self-inducing impeller is able to recycle gas in the headspace of a reactor to the liquid bulk without utilization of additional equipment like a gas compressor, and its gas utilization efficiency is significantly enhanced.…”

Traditional bioreactors include enzyme reactors and microbial fermentors, but recent research activities on bioreactors have significantly extended to various scales of them whether in a large natural ecology system or at a micro-scale level of nano sizes. Although bioreactor and bioreactor technology seem to be a traditional area of biochemical engineering and biotechnology, recently some new types of bioreactors have still been developed and applied into industrial practice. New methodology concepts on bioreactor research have also been proposed on the basis of cell biology and metabolic engineering. Therefore, in this context, this special volume is dedicated to bioreactor engineering to make the old new, and six invited chapters ranging from novel design of bioreactors to methodologies of bioreactor/bioprocess analysis and optimization are included.As well know...

Multiple inclined hollow pipes were combined to form a self‐priming jet (SPJ) impeller. The hydrodynamic and mixing characteristics in the tank were studied by numerical simulation. The feasibility of the numerical simulation model was verified by particle distribution experiments. The results showed that the turbulence intensity and vorticity were affected by the installation height and diameter of the impeller; the mixing performance was improved with increasing diameter and installation angle. The study on the enhanced mixing mechanism showed that the self‐priming was generated in the lower part of the impeller, the flow was accelerated in the empty pipe, and the jet was generated in the upper part of the impeller. Self‐priming and jet caused multiple axial internal circulation flows in the SPJ tank.

Packed tower reactors, mechanically stirred reactors, airlift reactors, and gas-self-inducing reactors are frequently utilized among the various types of reactors. Self-inducing reactors exhibit notable advantages owing to their simple structure, effective gas–liquid intermixing, and low energy requirements, rendering them highly suitable for bioengineering endeavors. The purpose of this analysis is to shed light on the use of self-inducing reactors in bioengineering by examining the following five parameters: critical speed, suction rate, volumetric mass transfer coefficient, power characteristics, and gas hold-up. Through a comprehensive analysis of the advancements achieved in these domains, it is possible to determine the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in the realm of bioengineering.
