Summary
An Apple IIe microcomputer with an Isaac analog-digital package has been interfaced to Tylan proportionating mass flow gas controllers to regulate three substrate gases which are introduced into an anaerobic bioreactor. Advantages of the system include: straightforward interfacing and programming, accurate monitoring and controlling, and advanced real time control capabilities.
