Fermenters are complex vessels designed to maintain optimum environmental conditions for the growth of microorganisms. Fermenters are cylinder-shaped containers in which biological processes are carried out under a controlled environment. They are designed to bear high pressure and temperature conditions mediated by the fermentation medium. Furthermore, they are available in different shapes and sizes ranging from a few milliliters to thousands of liters. They are used in a variety of end-use industries from food to pharmaceuticals, from cosmetics and personal care to biofuels.
The key factors that drive the growth of the global fermenters market include an increase in technological innovations and a rise in demand for fermenters in the pharmaceutical and alcohol industries. Moreover, customized solutions according to specific requirements and designs have created new opportunities for market growth.

Executive Summary
According to this report titled, 'Fermenters Market by Process, Application, and Mode of Operation: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2018 - 2025,' the fermenters market size was $1,211.5 million in 2018, and is projected to reach $1,781.3 million by 2025, registering a CAGR of 5.7% from 2018 to 2025. In 2017, the continuous fermentation segment accounted for more than 51% share of the global fermenters market in terms of value.
Fermentation is a metabolic process in which microorganisms convert carbohydrates such as starch and sugar to organic acids, alcohols, and other useful byproducts. This process takes place in a specially designed vessel called fermenter, also known as bioreactors. Fermenters are cylindrical shaped containers in which biological processes are carried out under a controlled environment. They consist of a wide array of instruments to maintain optimum conditions inside the vessel. It mainly consists of sensors, actuators, and control systems to monitor and maintain the desired environment inside the fermenter.
Fermenters are used for the controlled cultivation of fungi, yeast, and bacteria to generate products such as organic acids, enzymes, starter culture, insulin, and vaccines. They are also designed to process insect, mammalian, and hybridoma cells for the production of monoclonal antibodies hormones, vaccines, etc.
The rise in demand for advanced vaccinations and expansion in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries is expected to exhibit a high demand for fermenters in the future. In addition, the inclusion of technically advanced fermenters such as miniaturized fermenters, fermenters with smart technology and rise in the demand for beer and wines further propel the fermenters market growth in the future, which in turn is expected to fuel the growth of the fermenters market.
On the other hand, fermenters are very costly owing to the presence of advanced technological devices such as sensors, actuators, and control systems to name a few. The high cost of fermenters is expected to impend market growth. In addition, the optimization and integration of large-scale fermenters are major concerns for stakeholders in the fermenters industry. Manufacturers of fermenters are continuously engaged in the development of commercially viable fermenters at a very large scale in order to cater increase in demand for large-scale fermenters, especially from the food & beverage industry. As the global demand for fermenters continues to expand, engaged stakeholders will be challenged to continue to improve the efficacy and yield of fermenters. Furthermore, adapting to evolving customer demand will require collaboration throughout the value chain
