[0002] Microbial fermentation refers to a process of converting raw materials into products required by human beings through specific metabolic pathways under suitable conditions by using microorganisms. The production level of microbial fermentation mainly depends on the genetic characteristics of the strain itself and the culture conditions. The automatic control production of biological fermentation projects not only improves the production efficiency of the workshop but also guarantees the high quality of the products. The fermentation process is the key to determining the success or failure of the entire fermentation production process and is the most complex and most susceptible to contamination stage in the entire production process. Therefore, the fermentation tank and its process pipeline should be cleaned and sterilized before production, and the culture medium should be added to the tank and then sterilized. At the same time when the sterilization is completed, the control of the process parameters such as the pressure and temperature of the fermentation tank should be started to ensure the sterility in the tank. These process parameters not only affect the efficiency of fermentation but also determine the fermentation effect. However, the traditional microbial fermentation control is mainly manual monitoring and control. When the change of the fermentation environment is monitored, it is determined by human whether the control adjustment of the process parameters is required. However, due to the complexity and uncertainty of the parameters in the fermentation tank during the fermentation process, it is difficult to achieve accurate control of the fermentation process by human regulation, resulting in low fermentation efficiency and poor fermentation effect.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN116144489B discloses a microbial fermentation automatic control system, which comprises: obtaining temperature time series data of a fermentation tank to form a temperature curve and obtaining a plurality of target curve segments; selecting a first temperature curve and a first target curve segment to obtain distance parameters of data points of the first target curve segment and data points of the remaining target curve segments; performing shortest path matching on the first target curve segment and the remaining target curve segments according to the distance parameters to obtain a matching result, and obtaining net heat of the fermentation tank at the time sequence of the first target curve segment according to the matching result; clustering the first target curve segment to obtain a cluster; obtaining a compensation amount of an adjustment amount; and adjusting and compensating the heat of the fermentation tank according to the compensation amount of the adjustment amount to complete the control of the microbial fermentation.

In the initial fermentation stage, the substrate concentration, pH, and cell concentration are relatively low, and the change degree is small, so the corresponding comprehensive reactant coefficient is small, preferably, the comprehensive reactant coefficient range is set to 0.1-0.5. In the middle fermentation stage, as the fermentation reaction occurs, the substrate concentration and pH gradually decrease, and the cell concentration increases, and the change degree is large, so the corresponding comprehensive reactant coefficient is large, preferably, the comprehensive reactant coefficient range is set to 0.8-1.0.

[0093] determining the environmental information adjustment amount based on the key environmental information corresponding to the key microbial growth area;
[0094] Alternatively, the predicted reactant information is determined based on the fermentation coupling model, and the nutrient solution addition parameters including the nutrient solution addition amount and the addition time are determined based on the predicted reactant information.
[0095] Specifically, the control adjustment module determines that the control adjustment mode of the fermentation tank based on the comparison result that the current environment information does not meet the standard fermentation index is the first adjustment mode.
[0096] The first adjustment mode is to determine the environmental information adjustment amount based on the key environmental information corresponding to the key microbial growth area.
[0097] In the implementation, the average value of the air pressure corresponding to the microorganism growth critical zone is determined as the critical air pressure, the average value of the temperature corresponding to the microorganism growth critical zone is determined as the critical temperature, the difference between the critical air pressure and the current air pressure is determined as the air pressure adjustment amount, the difference between the critical temperature and the current temperature is determined as the temperature adjustment amount, and the environmental information adjustment amount includes the air pressure adjustment amount and the temperature adjustment amount.

[0099] The second adjustment mode is to determine predicted reactant information based on the fermentation coupling model and to determine the nutrient solution addition parameter based on the predicted reactant information.
[0100] In the implementation, the predicted reactant information is determined based on the fermentation degree output by the fermentation coupling model and a preset fermentation degree reference table or any prediction model capable of outputting predicted reactant information. The actual implementer can set the preset fermentation degree reference table based on the actual situation.

The comprehensive adjustment coefficient is determined according to the average value of the predicted substrate concentration coefficient, the predicted pH value coefficient, and the predicted cell concentration coefficient. The nutrient solution addition amount is determined according to the product of the comprehensive adjustment coefficient and the standard nutrient solution addition amount. The nutrient solution addition time corresponding nutrient solution addition time length (i.e., the time length of the nutrient solution addition time from the current time) is determined according to the product of the comprehensive adjustment coefficient and the standard nutrient solution addition time corresponding standard nutrient solution addition time length (i.e., the time length of the standard nutrient solution addition time from the current time).

Preferably, the standard nutrient solution addition amount is set to have a value range of 0.1L-0.5L, and the time length of the standard nutrient solution addition time from the current time is set to have a value range of 15min-30min.
[0104] The control adjustment module determines different control adjustment modes by comparing the current environment information and the current reactant information with the standard fermentation index, determines the environment information adjustment amount based on the key environment information corresponding to the key microbial growth area, and can accurately adjust the current environment information that does not meet the standard fermentation index, which helps to quickly restore the stability of the fermentation environment and ensures that the microorganism grows in the most suitable fermentation conditions. The predicted reactant information is determined based on the fermentation coupling model, and the nutrient solution addition parameters are determined based on the predicted reactant information, which can optimize the supply of nutrient solution, avoid the decline of product quality caused by insufficient or excessive nutrients, and improve the fermentation efficiency and fermentation effect.
