Shop used, secondhand and surplus fermenters from IPP – in stock and ready for pharmaceutical, biotech and food production

Boost efficiency and reduce capital costs with IPP’s ready-to-ship fermenters for pilot, production and sanitary bioprocessing

Used fermenters are essential in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and food manufacturing, providing a sterile environment for microbial growth, enzymatic reactions, or cell culture processing. Designed for precise control of temperature, agitation, pH, and dissolved oxygen, fermenters are key to consistent batch quality and regulatory compliance. With more than 47 years of experience, IPP supplies used, surplus and secondhand fermenters from 20 global plant sites and maintains an unmatched inventory of 15,000+ process systems.

From stainless steel production-scale units to glass-lined pilot vessels, IPP’s inventory supports a wide range of fermentation applications—from antibiotics and biofuels to cultured proteins and enzymes.

Primary uses across industries

  • In pharmaceutical and biotech, for fermentation of antibiotics, vaccines, and therapeutic proteins
  • In nutraceuticals and food, for producing probiotics, amino acids, yeasts and flavor enhancers
  • In industrial biotech, for biosynthesis of enzymes, biofuels and organic acids

Types of materials processed

  • Microbial, bacterial and yeast cultures
  • Mammalian cell cultures in sterile environments
  • Media containing sugars, proteins, or specialized nutrients

Common materials of construction

Fermenters are engineered to meet cleanroom and cGMP requirements:

  • 316L stainless steel for sanitary pharmaceutical and food-grade operations
  • Glass-lined steel for corrosion resistance in acidic or highly reactive media
  • Jacketed vessels for precise temperature control

Key features of industrial fermenters

  • CIP/SIP (clean-in-place / steam-in-place) systems for sterility
  • Integrated pH, DO, temperature and pressure control
  • Top- or bottom-mounted agitation with low-shear options
  • Sampling ports, spray balls and sterile air spargers
  • PLC automation and SCADA-ready systems for batch tracking
