The impact of orbitally shaking bioreactors (OSRs) on the biopharmaceutical industry is becoming increasingly important. In the preliminary exploration of the orbitally shaking bioreactor performance, the vessel wall shape has a crucial influence on the mixing and mass transfer in the bioreactor. However, the shape of OSRs still maintains a cylindrical structure, significantly limiting the advantages of the orbital shaking mixing.
