What is a steam sparge tube?
A steam sparger is a type of direct contact heating device. Steam sparging is considered a traditional heating method, where the input temperature is much higher than the process temperature. Although steam injection is considered more efficient, steam spargers are also used in several industries.
How does a Sparge valve work?
In a sparge valve system, the injection of steam is controlled by a thermostatic valve. The system is designed to maintain the temperature of the feedwater. Some sulfite will still be added to the bottom of the tank to tie up any remaining oxygen and protect the preboiler and boiler from oxygen attack.

How do you size a steam sparger?
Static sparger sizing is based on the steam exit velocity from the porous sparger surface, expressed in feet per minutes (FPM), calculated from cubic feet per minute (CFM) per square foot of sparger surface area (CFM/ft2). Steam volume is calculated at head or liquid pressure at the sparger element.

What is the role of sparger in fermenter?
Sparger is a device for introducing air into fermenter. Aeration provides sufficient oxygen for organism in the fermenter. Large bubbles will have less surface area than smaller bubbles which will facilitate oxygen transfer to a greater extent.
What is sparger and its types?
