Supercharge Your Sparge: Revolutionizing Amino Acid Production with Advanced Sparging Technology

Is your bio-fermentation process still relying on outdated sparging technology? If you’re in the amino acid production industry, you know that efficiency is everything, especially as demand continues to rise. With growth comes the pressure to cut costs, reduce cycle times, and optimize production. Fortunately, Mott’s innovative Bio-Fermentation Spargers are here to help you meet those challenges head-on.

Here’s how upgrading your sparging system with Mott’s advanced porous metal solutions can supercharge your production:

1. Save Time with Efficient Gas Contacting

At Mott, we’ve engineered spargers that produce the most efficient bubble size for optimal gas-liquid contact. Compared to traditional orifice or drilled pipe spargers, our porous metal spargers deliver significantly higher oxygen rates of rise (O₂ rate-of-rise). This means faster gas absorption and quicker process times, allowing your bio-fermentation system to run at peak efficiency.

By improving the rate at which oxygen dissolves into your liquid, Mott spargers help you reduce cycle times, speeding up production without sacrificing quality.

2. Save Air – Cut Down on Conditioned Gas Usage

While air might seem like an infinite resource, conditioning and purifying it for bio-fermentation can be costly. Mott’s sparging solutions are designed to reduce the amount of air your system uses while still increasing efficiency. Thanks to the optimal gas-to-surface area ratio produced by our finely tuned bubble size, oxygen absorption is much higher compared to conventional sparging methods.

Instead of excess gas rising to the surface and lingering in the headspace of your tank, it is quickly absorbed into the solution. This improved absorption rate means less wasted gas and a more cost-effective use of your resources.

3. Save Energy – Reduce Agitation and Power Usage

In the bio-fermentation industry, high-speed agitation is often seen as essential for proper gas absorption and distribution. However, with Mott’s advanced sparging technology, you can cut your agitation speeds by as much as 50%—or even eliminate the need for agitation altogether!

Our studies show that Mott spargers outperform traditional sparging systems—even those using aggressive agitation—when it comes to gas absorption and distribution. By reducing agitation, you not only save energy but also extend the life of your equipment, leading to further operational cost savings.
