The GEA kytero® single use separator series is available for batch processing (fed-batch) in a GEA kytero® 500
version that can process 500 L of input feed in a single batch, and in a GEA kytero 2000 version for upscaling to larger
quantities. Use the kytero® 500 for R&D and small-batch processing and go into production with the kytero® 2000.
Success is as simple as that.
