Cultivation of Methylococcus capsulatus for SCP production is a highly exothermic process which is limited by oxygen transport from gas to liquid phase when it is conducted in a conventional fermenter. This motivated the design of the U-loop reactor which enhances heat and mass transport through the integration of functions.
As a consequence of intensification, the operability of the system become an issue. In order to understand the system behavior and investigate operability, a systematic model analysis is performed. It results in the design of a control structure which facilitates the reactor start-up and enables stable operation..
