Capacity : 3L to 20L
The Laboratory Fermenter is a small and easy-to-use system that helps researchers grow microbes and test fermentation processes on a smaller scale, typically used in academic institutions, research laboratories, and pilot facilities. These fermenters usually have a capacity ranging from 3 to 20 liters and are ideal for studying microbial growth, optimizing fermentation process conditions, testing new media formulations, and producing small quantities of bio-products such as enzymes, antibiotics, and biofertilizers. Laboratory fermenters provide a highly controlled environment where critical parameters like temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, agitation, and aeration can be precisely regulated.
Laboratory-scale fermenters are made of stainless steel or high borosilicate glass, are simple to clean, and frequently have modular designs that provide experiment capacity. They are equipped with digital control systems, integrated sensors, and data logging capabilities, making them suitable for detailed monitoring and analysis. These fermenters serve as essential tools for process development and scale-up, allowing researchers to generate reliable data that can be transferred to pilot or industrial-scale fermenters. Their compact size, user-friendly interface, and versatility make laboratory fermenters indispensable in modern biotechnological and microbiological research.
