Micro Sparger for Bioreactor
Description
CMI offers a wide range of porous metal spargers tips for laboratory and pilot scale bioreactors and fermenters.
With media grades ranging from 2μm to 15μm, CMI porous spargers offer the flexibility to generate bubble sizes
which are optimal for your specific media, organism and mass transfer requirements. Various specifications and
connections are available.

In many cell culture mediums, oxygen is difficult to be solubilized, which causes difficulty in optimizing the critical
nutrient. CMI micro spargers can significantly improve the mass transfer rates of oxygen or carbon dioxide by
maximizing the surface area between the media and the aeration bubble.

Features
－Precise pore size distributions
－Small gas bubble aerated
－Easily cleaned/back-flushed
－Corrosion/abrasion resistant

Applications
－Conventional Sintered Metal Spargers
 Pure water and mineral water ozone sterilization aeration
 Industrial waste water aeration
 Aeration of domestic sewage treatment aeration tank
 Aeration in high temptation environment

－Special Sintered Metal Spargers

 Oil produced water degreasing aeration
 Industrial waste water degreasing aeration
 Aeration of high viscosity fluid
 Aeration in high temptation environment
 Aeration in easy scaling application

Instruction Manual
－Installation
 Spargers should be horizontal installed.
 The installation spacing should be arranged at a distance of 5-10 times the diameter of the aeration product,
and adjusted appropriately according to the water depth.
 During the installation of the aeration product, it is absolutely forbidden to apply force to the aeration surface
(porous part). Press the edge of the aeration product by hand and tighten it clockwise. If further tightening
is required, use a wrench to tighten it immediately above the thread. Aeration in high temptation
environment.
 Do not smash, drop or knock the porous surface of the aeration product to avoid damage to the aeration
products.

－Operation
 When the aeration product is in use, it should be slowly increased to the working pressure to avoid the
instantaneous pressure from damaging the aeration product.
 The use of low-pressure difference and small air volume aeration can improve the oxygen utilization rate
 Continuous operation is recommended to prevent the settling of pollutants from blocking the aeration
product.
 If continuous operation is not possible, check whether the surface of the aeration product is fouled or blocked
each time before re-operation. If the aeration product is blocked, it should be removed and cleaned in time.

8 / 9
－Cleaning
 In the cleaning process, it is necessary to combine the nature of the pollutants to mix the cleaning liquid.
Generally, it is recommended to use nitric acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid to be ultrasonic cleaned.
 After soaking with cleaning fluid to dissolve the blockage, rinse it with clean water in time and blow it with
pure compressed air
 Concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated hydrochloric acid must not be used to avoid corrosion of porous
parts
