BioBook Compact Benchtop Bioreactor
The BioBook Compact is a space-efficient benchtop bioreactor and fermentor system developed by Kbiotech for laboratory research, process development, and small-scale GMP production. Designed to accommodate glass, stainless steel, and single-use polycarbonate vessels from 50 mL to 25 L working volume, it operates in both single and Twin parallel configurations. Its compact footprint of 280×400×600 mm makes it well suited for laboratories where bench space is at a premium.

Working Principle
The BioBook Compact operates through an FPGA PLC controller integrated with Bioflex SCADA software, enabling precise monitoring and regulation of pH, dissolved oxygen, temperature, foam, level, and redox. Variable speed peristaltic pumps handle liquid additions from 0.05 mL to 200 mL/min, while individual mass flow controllers govern gas delivery across Air, O2, CO2, N2, and H2 lines. A thermo-chiller module provides automated heating and cooling between +15°C and +90°C with 0.1°C precision. The system supports batch, fed-batch, and continuous operation modes, with automated sensor detection and online data recording throughout.
Key Features
Built on industrial-grade control architecture, the BioBook Compact delivers consistent bioprocess performance across microbial fermentation, cell culture, and biocatalysis applications. Interchangeable vessels allow rapid format switching without changing the control unit. Documentation packages support cGMP qualification, and online remote diagnostics with zero-downtime module replacement ensure uninterrupted laboratory productivity.
