Equipment use:

The fermentation tank structure for anaerobic fermentation (such as the production of alcohol, solvent) can be simpler. For the aerobic fermentation (such as the production of antibiotics, amino acids, organic acids, vitamins, etc.) of the fermentation tank due to the need for continuous access to a large number of sterile air tank, and to consider the use of access to air, so the structure of the fermentation tank Complex, commonly used mechanical agitated fermentor, bubbling fermentor and airlift fermentation tank.

Dairy products, alcohol fermentation process is a sterile, non-polluting process, fermentation tank with a sterile system to avoid and prevent the pollution of microorganisms in the air, greatly extending the shelf life of the product and the product of pure, Designed to install a sterile breathing stomata or a sterile positive pressure fermentation system. The tank is equipped with a milo plate or a labyrinth jacket, which can be heated or cooled by heating or cooling medium. Fermentor capacity from 300-15000L a variety of different specifications. Fermentors according to the scope of use can be divided into small laboratory fermentation tank, pilot production fermentation tank, large fermentation tank.

Fermentor is widely used in dairy products, beverages, bio-engineering, pharmaceutical, fine chemicals and other industries, the tank with sandwich, insulation layer, can be heated, cooling, insulation. The tank and the upper and lower filling heads (or tapered) are machined with the spinning angle R, the inner wall of the tank is polished by mirror, no sanitary dead ends, and the fully enclosed design ensures that the material is always mixed and fermented without fermentation. Air breathing holes, CIP cleaning nozzle, manhole and other devices.

Fermentor classification: According to the fermentation tank equipment, divided into mechanical mixing ventilation tank and non-mechanical mixing ventilation fermentation tank;

In accordance with the needs of microbial growth and metabolism, divided into good gas fermentation tank and anaerobic fermentation irrigation.

Fermentor is a kind of equipment for mechanical stirring and fermentation equipment. The device uses the internal circulation method, with the stirring blade to disperse and break the bubble, it dissolves oxygen rate is high, the mixing effect is good. The tank is made of SUS304 or 316L stainless steel, the tank is equipped with automatic spray cleaning head to ensure that the production process in line with GMP requirements.

maintenance:

1, such as the inlet and outlet fittings leak, when the tightening joints do not solve the problem, should be added or replaced packing.

2, the pressure gauge and safety valve should be regularly checked, if the failure to timely exchange or repair.

3, when cleaning the fermentation tank, please use a soft brush to brush, do not use a hard device to scratch, so as not to damage the surface of the fermentation tank.

4, supporting the instrument should be verified once a year to ensure the normal use.

5, electrical appliances, meters, sensors and other electrical equipment is strictly prohibited directly with water, steam contact to prevent moisture.

6, the equipment to stop using, should be promptly cleaned, exhausted fermentor and the remaining water in the pipeline; release the fermentor tank cap and hand hole screws to prevent the permanent deformation of the ring.

7, operating platform, constant temperature water tank and other carbon steel equipment should be regularly (once a year) brush paint to prevent corrosion.

8, often check the reducer oil level, such as lubricating oil is not enough to be increased.

9, regularly replace the reducer lubricants to extend its service life.

10, if the fermentation tank is temporarily not used, you need to empty the fermentation tank, side by side and the tank within the water.

Precautions:

1). Before the tank is sterilized, check the height of the liquid level, requiring all the electrodes not to be below the liquid level.

2). Before opening the fermenter, check that the cooling water is open and the temperature probe is inserted into the tank. Otherwise, the heating circuit will be burned out.

3). During the fermentation process must keep the table clean, used culture bottles and other items in time to clean up, because the spilled acid or water should be immediately dry.

4). Be especially careful about the easy and expensive parts of the pH electrode and the tank when installing, removing and sterilizing the tank.
