PureFerm
Get the most out of high-density cell fermentations with PureFerm bioprocessing centrifuges, featuring unique Alfa Laval technologies for continuous solids removal and gentle, foam-free treatment with up to 40% power savings compared to traditional top-fed centrifuges. High product recovery yield and low energy consumption makes PureFerm the ideal harvesting and purification solution for profitable next-generation food manufacturing.
Bioprocessing centrifuges with superior cell separation performance
- Efficient solids handling with continuous solids removal
- Up to 40% lower power consumption with Hermetic Design™
- Hermetic Design™ minimizes shear for gentle cell treatment
- Bowl completely with fluid prevents oxygen pick-up and foaming
- Easy operation: automated process control
Efficient cell culture separation poses significant challenges to profitable bioprocessing. The complex and delicate nature of cells requires careful handling to prevent damage or loss of viability. Scaling up the process while maintaining high productivity can become a hurdle, as filtration and other separation systems may not give satisfactory results.
Through continuous and highly efficient separation of large volumes, PureFerm centrifuges bring improved productivity to next-generation food and other bioprocessing applications. Drawing on unique Alfa Laval technologies such as Hermetic Design™ and Bactofuge® – continuous solids discharge -, the PureFerm platform adds scalability, profitability, and unmatched energy efficiency to your process.
Innovative features of PureFerm separators
Bactofuge®
Alfa Laval Bactofuge® enables gentle and speedy continuous solids removal for high concentrations cultures, resulting in higher yield, with minimum risk of clogging. In addition to higher separation output, Bactofuge preserves the quality of the solids stream, and allows a flexible and controlled operation.
Hermetic Design™
Alfa Laval Hermetic Design™ improves product handling in a wide range of separation applications. The air-tight and bottom-fed bowl enables gentle acceleration of media, with minimal foaming and oxygen pick-up, providing high product yield and low filter costs.
eMotion™
Alfa Laval eMotion™ is a unique energy-saving module, available as an add-on for many of Alfa Laval’s separators. By creating a near-vacuum around the separator bowl, eMotion™ reduces air friction enough to improve energy efficiency. There are additional benefits of eMotion™, such as reduced noise levels, lower cooling requirements, and improved cleanability.
The PureFerm range
PureFerm centrifuges come in different sizes to meet your bioprocessing needs. All provide high-efficiency separation with continuous solids removal, gentle product handling, and minimized oxygen pick-up.
