Product description

This 5000L stainless steel bioreactor is built for industrial fermentation and extraction processes where pressure integrity and material purity are non-negotiable. We manufacture this vessel for production environments that require consistent thermal control, reliable agitation, and a cleanable internal surface.

The vessel body is constructed from stainless steel with a polished internal finish to minimize bacterial adhesion and simplify CIP/SIP cycles. Welds are fully penetrated and ground smooth at the joints, which matters more in fermentation duty than in simple storage applications. The pressure vessel design means the tank can handle both positive pressure and vacuum conditions, depending on your process configuration.

The integrated motor and agitator assembly is sized for typical fermentation broths with moderate solids content. We fit a mechanical seal on the agitator shaft to prevent contamination and leakage during extended operation. Jacket heating and cooling are provided through the external shell, and the internal coil option can be added when faster heat transfer is required.

Industries that commonly specify this type of reactor include pharmaceutical intermediate production, enzyme manufacturing, biofuel pilot plants, and food ingredient processing. Each application has different demands regarding agitation speed, temperature uniformity, and cleaning frequency, so we leave the mixing configuration adaptable.

FAQ

Q: What is the working volume versus total volume?
The working volume is typically 80% of the total capacity to leave headspace for foaming and gas expansion during fermentation.

Q: Can I use this for viscous materials?
Yes, but we need to know the viscosity range to select the right impeller type and motor power. High-viscosity broths require anchor or helical ribbon agitators.

Q: What cleaning method is recommended?
CIP spray balls are recommended for routine cleaning. The mirror-polished interior reduces residue buildup, and the vessel is designed to be fully drainable.

Q: Is the pressure rating fixed?
No. We build to your specified design pressure and can certify the vessel accordingly.

When you request a quote, include the following details: the chemical composition of your material, batch volume, operating and design temperature, working pressure, viscosity, and the type of mixing you need. With that information, our engineers will confirm the wall thickness, agitator configuration, and seal type before we send a proposal.

Customer Review

We ordered a complete peanut butter processing line, and overall we’ve been very happy with it. The equipment arrived well packed and everything was installed and tested without major issues. The line runs smoothly, and the mixing and processing have been consistent. Our peanut butter comes out with a good texture, and the equipment is not difficult for our operators to use and clean. The support from the supplier was also helpful during setup. So far, it has been a good investment for our production.
