500L to 2000L Bio-Fermentation Reactor Tank for Processing Line 1000L Option Available
Fermentation tank, also known as fermentation tank or bioreactor, is a type of container equipment widely used in industries such as brewing (such as beer, wine), food processing, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and chemical industry. Its main function is to support the growth and metabolic processes of microorganisms (such as yeast, bacteria) or cells (such as animal cells, plant cells) under controlled conditions, in order to produce specific products such as alcohol, enzymes, antibiotics, biofuels, vaccines, etc.
The design of a fermentation tank usually includes the following key parts:
1.
Tank body: Provides a closed environment, with sizes ranging from a few liters to thousands of cubic meters, typically made of stainless steel to ensure sterility and corrosion resistance.
2.
Stirring system: used to mix materials inside the tank, ensuring uniform distribution of nutrients, oxygen (or carbon dioxide), and promoting microbial growth and product formation. There are various designs for mixers, including turbine and paddle types.
3.
Temperature control system: Maintaining an appropriate fermentation temperature is crucial for the activity of microorganisms. This is usually achieved through jacket heating or cooling coils and temperature control systems.
4.
Ventilation and defoaming system: For aerobic fermentation processes, provide sterile air or oxygen and effectively eliminate the generated carbon dioxide and other gases. At the same time, reduce foam in the fermentation process through defoamer or specially designed defoamer.
5.
Sensors and control systems: Monitor and control various parameters during the fermentation process, such as pH value, dissolved oxygen (DO), temperature, pressure, etc., to ensure that the fermentation conditions are stable in the optimal state.
6.
Sampling and feeding ports: facilitate sampling and analysis during the fermentation process, as well as adding nutrients, acid-base adjustment solutions, etc. as needed.
7.
Sterilization and cleaning system: Thoroughly sterilize and clean the fermentation tank before and after each use to prevent contamination and maintain consistency between batches.
Modern fermentation technology is highly automated, and many fermentation tanks are integrated with advanced monitoring and data acquisition systems (SCADA), which can remotely monitor and manage the fermentation process, improve efficiency and product quality.

The process of customizing yeast fermentation tanks involves multiple steps to ensure that the quality and performance of the final product meet specific requirements. Here are some key steps and considerations to guide how to customize yeast fermentation tanks:
Determine requirements: Firstly, it is necessary to clarify the specific requirements for customizing fermentation tanks, including capacity, material, design features, etc. For example, the capacity of fermentation tanks can range from 100L to 7000L, and the appropriate capacity can be selected based on production scale and budget.
Material selection: The material of the fermentation tank is also an important factor to consider when customizing. Stainless steel is a common material choice due to its excellent corrosion resistance and easy cleaning properties. In addition, other materials such as food grade stainless steel can be selected according to specific needs to ensure the safety and hygiene standards of the product.
Design features: According to the production process requirements, special designs may be needed for the fermentation tank, such as heating and cooling systems, stirring devices, sampling ports, etc. These design features can greatly improve the efficiency of the fermentation process and product quality.
Customized production: Once the requirements and design features are determined, customized production can begin. This includes selecting or designing appropriate heating and cooling systems, as well as ensuring compatibility and safety of all components and systems. Meanwhile, it is also necessary to consider how to facilitate cleaning and maintenance.
Quality control: Strict quality control is required during the production process to ensure that the performance of all components and systems meets expectations. This may include testing of materials, functional testing of systems, etc.
After sales service: After customization is completed, necessary after-sales services such as operation training, maintenance guidance, etc. need to be provided to ensure that users can use the customized yeast fermentation tank correctly and efficiently.
Through the above steps, suitable yeast fermentation tanks can be customized according to specific needs, thereby improving production efficiency and quality.
