Equipment Composition Of The Fermentation System

The fermentation system is mainly composed of the following key equipment:

‌Fermentation tank‌: The fermentation tank is the core equipment of the fermentation system and is used to hold the fermented material. Its shape and size can be designed according to different fermentation requirements. The material of the fermentation tank is usually stainless steel or fiberglass, which has good corrosion resistance and operability. The larger the volume of the fermentation tank, the stronger the fermentation capacity.

‌Mixing system‌: The stirring system is used to maintain the uniformity of the fermented material, which helps to maintain a relatively balanced number of microorganisms in the fermented material, thereby improving the fermentation efficiency. There are many forms of stirring systems, such as mechanical stirring, gas stirring, etc., and the appropriate stirring method should be selected according to different fermentation processes.

‌Ventilation system‌: The ventilation system is used to adjust the atmosphere inside the fermentation tank, provide the oxygen required for microbial fermentation, and regulate the emission of waste gases such as carbon dioxide in the tank. The ventilation system is divided into two modes: mechanical ventilation and airflow regulation. The appropriate ventilation method should be selected according to the specific fermentation process.

‌Temperature control system‌: The temperature control system is responsible for maintaining the temperature in the fermentation tank to ensure that the growth and metabolism of microorganisms are carried out at a suitable temperature. The temperature control system can monitor and flexibly adjust the temperature in the fermentation tank in real time to ensure the smooth progress of the fermentation process.

‌Air treatment system‌: including air compressor, air cooling and heating equipment, main filter, etc., responsible for providing sterile air to ensure the sanitary conditions of the fermentation process.

‌Steam purification system‌: used to purify steam to ensure its safe use during the fermentation process.

‌Electrical control system‌: responsible for the electrical control of the entire fermentation system, including on-site PLC control system and secondary instruments, etc.

‌Pipeline, valve, auxiliary system‌: including various pipelines, valves and auxiliary equipment to ensure the smooth operation of the system.

‌Sensor and primary instrument system‌: used to monitor various parameters in the fermentation process in real time, such as pH, dissolved oxygen, temperature, etc.

‌Lower computer control system‌: on-site PLC control system and secondary instruments, responsible for on-site data acquisition and control.

‌Upper computer system‌: used to remotely monitor and manage the entire fermentation process.

These devices work together to ensure the efficiency, stability and reliability of the fermentation process.
