HyPerforma™ Single-Use Fermentor (S.U.F.)
The S.U.F. is engineered for optimal oxygen mass transfer, mixing, and temperature control, and performs comparably to traditional stainless steel systems. Using traditional, fundamental engineering principles, scale-up and process development work is streamlined – offering you cost savings and efficiency.
Some of the key features of the Single-Use Fermentor (S.U.F.) include:
Microbial Fermentation & Biological Fermentation
The S.U.F. is the first specifically engineered fermentor for scale up and production and is available in 30 L and 300 L sizes. It has been optimized oxygen mass transfer, mixing, and temperature control, and performs comparably to traditional stainless steel systems. Using traditional, fundamental engineering principles, scale-up and process development work is streamlined – offering you cost savings and efficiency.
Stainless steel performance, single-use benefits
The S.U.F. has been developed on standard stainless steel fermentation design geometry (3:1 height to diameter, 5:1 turndown ratio), making scale-up and process development activities easy. The single-use format helps reduce batch turnover activities, including the time-consuming clean-in-place and sterilization-in-place cycles, which helps to decrease costs and increase productivity.
