PH_CO2_BASE_CTRL

Bioreactor pH split-range control by CO2 sparge downwards and metered base upwards, with a cumulative base cap.

When to use it

Use PH_CO2_BASE_CTRL when a bioreactor holds pH between a CO2 sparge that acidifies and a base addition that alkalises, and the total base delivered over the batch has to be capped because it is also an osmolality addition.
