Sintered Microsparger in Bioreactor System for Green chemistry industry
The importance of aeration and gas dispersion to achieve good oxygen mass transfer cannot be understated. This is at the heart of the ability of microbial systems and to a lesser extent cell culture systems to provide the necessary respiration for active cell growth and metabolism.
The micron sparger ring is equipped with 20 micron (or choose smaller micron ) micro spargers for a maximum flow of 0.1 VVM air and 0.1 VVM oxygen. These micro spargers provide small bubble size under the pitched blade impeller where they are mixed into the broth to achieve homogenous dispersion and maximize availability of oxygen for mass transfer into the cells.
