Versatile: can be
used for different
reactions every
day.
Safe: can be
properly
Batch
sterilized.
Little risk of
infection or strain
mutation
Complete
conversion of
substrate is
possible
Works all the
time: low labor
cost, good
utilization of
reactor
Often efficient:
due to the
autocatalytic
Continuous nature of
microbial
reactions, the
productivity can
be high.
Automation may
be very appealing
Often disappointing:
promised continuous
production for months
fails due to a. infection.
b. spontaneous
mutation of
microorganisms to non
producing strain
Inflexible: can rarely be
used for other
productions without
substantial retrofitting
Constant product
quality
