Fermenters for every application
The pharmaceutical fermentation process requires the very highest quality of all the materials and vessels used to provide the necessary long-term sterility and ensure that all the many standards, statutory provisions and regulatory requirements are met.
As a result, pharmaceutical manufacturers demand the highest standards with regard to their fermentation systems. Every function, every component and every detail has to comply 100 % with the relevant quality standards. The use of a high-performance and reliable fermentation system will in itself ensure that many of these conditions which are essential to safe and high-quality production, are fulfilled.
GEA Diessel has been developing and building fermentation systems for the cultivation of microorganisms and human or animal cells for over 20 years. Whether for individual fermenters or multi-stage fermentation systems, manufacturers trust in GEA Diessel's efficient customised plant.
Single-stage and multi-stage production plant
Fermentation process
Whatever it is you want from your fermentation plant – to manufacture recombinant genetic products for therapeutic purposes (TPA, interferon, insulin, h-Factor VII) or growth hormones and enzymes, or for diagnostic purposes (monoclonal antibodies) – our wide range of plant concepts will provide the equipment you need to meet any requirements or conditions.
We use the latest components and valve technologies to produce high-performance fermenters and skids. Together, we will find the most appropriate solution to meet all your requirements. Our fermenters show excellent long-term sterility during operation, aeration, sampling, media addition, exchange and transfer. A precise temperature control, a dead-leg free design and customized agitators for optimal oxygen transfer and mixing guarantee a smooth operation.
Automated system
GEA Diessel provides for all important parameters to be monitored by a high-performance control system, with all processes being visualised. The control system automatically regulats all parameters and records and documents all data, steps and parameters that are important to the process. According to your requirements, you control the plant from a central point or at each fermenter separately.
