5000L SS316L Jacketed Citric Acid Fermentation Tank for Aspergillus Niger Aerobic Fermentation
SS316L Jacketed Citric Acid Fermentation Tank for Aspergillus Niger Submerged Aerobic Fermentation
Vison Chemicals manufactures food-grade SS316L jacketed citric acid fermentation tanks for submerged aerobic fermentation of citric acid, sodium citrate and food acidulant production. Each citric acid fermentation tank is engineered for the Aspergillus niger fermentation process, with a top-entry Rushton turbine agitator and sintered air sparger that maintain the high dissolved oxygen and uniform mixing the fungus culture needs for maximum acid yield. The jacketed vessel holds the exact fermentation temperature, while sanitary SS316L wetted surfaces withstand the acidic broth and support clean batch operation from pilot trials to full commercial citric acid plants.
Key Features
- Food-grade SS316L jacketed citric acid fermentation tank resists the acidic broth while meeting hygienic fermentation standards
- Rushton turbine agitator with VFD delivers high oxygen transfer for Aspergillus niger submerged aerobic fermentation
- Sterile sintered air sparger with in-line air filter and flow control supplies clean air for continuous aerobic acid production
- Jacket heating and glycol cooling with PID control keeps the fermentation broth at the precise temperature for maximum citric acid yield
- Sanitary manway, inoculation port, CIP spray ball and breather support easy cleaning and aseptic operation between batches
- Polyurethane foam insulation with SS304 cladding reduces heat loss and holds stable temperature during the multi-day fermentation cycle
