Food & Beverage

cell-cultured meat, wine, bioreactor

Food and beverage production requires repeatable and accurate gas flow measurement technology to maximize yields and control production costs. Brooks Instrument mass flow controllers set global standards for reliability, repeatability and long-term stability, ensuring accurate, stable delivery of critical process gas flows to cultivators, fermenters and bioreactors.

Examples of applications:

Wine Producer Improves Sparging Process Using Digital Mass Flow Controllers with EtherNet/IP to Deliver Precise Amounts of Gas Flows for Batch Consistency

A large-scale international producer of wines sought to improve the overall quality and consistency of their wine via their sparging process. Their sparging process required better regulation to control the Nitrogen gas, or at times, Argon or Carbon Dioxide flows used to help purify the wine. Further, they needed to solve a secondary challenge of back streaming, which was damaging their flow control instrumentation when a process failure occurred.

Mass Flow Controllers Deliver Precise Gas Flows to Produce Cell-Cultured Meat

To meet the world’s growing demand for food, the biotech industry is supplementing the global food supply by producing cell-cultured meat. The production of cell-cultured meat is an exact science that requires precise control of gases to create a cultivating environment in a bioreactor or fermenter.
