Pilot and Industry Scale Airlift Fermentor

Pilot and Industry air lift Fermentor for vinegar , sauce or fruit fermentation.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Airlift Reactor (ALR) is one of the most widely-used bioreactors.

Airlift fermenter

The airlift fermenter is a new-type bioreactor developed and put into application at the end of last century. Without mechanical stirring assemblies, it minimizes contamination risk and mechanical shear force. It is especially suitable for various fungi with long mycelia. Sufficient gas-liquid mixing inside the airlift fermenter greatly improves oxygen transfer and utilization efficiency, making it ideal for high-viscosity culture media and products with high dissolved-oxygen requirements. It can be designed as internal-loop or external-loop types according to customer requirements. It can also be adapted for manufacturing light-duty bioreactors, and is widely applied in the cultivation of photosynthetic bacteria and algae.

Features

The core feature of the airlift fermenter is that static mixing components replace conventional dynamic stirring devices combined with the airlift principle, bringing the following advantages:

· Compared with Mechanically-Agitated Fermenters, it saves 70%-80% of power consumption and reduces operating costs.

· High reliability for aseptic operation. Free of dynamic sealing units, the equipment avoids leakage and dead corners, enabling thorough sterilization and greatly lowering the risk of bacterial contamination.

· High heat-transfer and oxygen-mass-transfer efficiency, meeting fermentation production demands of diverse aerobic microorganisms across all regions and seasons.

· Improved yield and conversion rate: Low mechanical shear causes little damage to microorganisms. Coupled with sufficient dissolved oxygen and timely heat dissipation, it creates favorable growth conditions for microbes, effectively boosting metabolism and accelerating product accumulation, so as to achieve remarkable improvements in product yield and conversion rate.

· Easy for large-scale automation. Available volumes range from 0.2 m³ to 200 m³. It poses no difficulties in fabrication, installation, operation and maintenance. With fewer control parameters than stirred-tank fermenters, it facilitates automatic control.
