Abstract From the Canadian patent

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.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed January 15, 1992 and granted May 28, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended January 15, 2012.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by January 15, 2014.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
