Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of microbial culture, in particular to an on-site large-scale culture device suitable for MICP microbial fermentation. Background Art
[0002] MICP (Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation) technology is widely used in fields such as soil reinforcement and concrete remediation. Existing technologies primarily rely on laboratory-based microbial culture equipment. These technologies are characterized by: fixed laboratory equipment, such as fermentation tanks and shakers, which require a stable power supply and temperature control; small-scale culture models, which are large and complex, making them difficult to apply directly to construction sites; manual operation, which requires frequent monitoring of pH, temperature, and bacterial activity, and is unsuitable for continuous on-site operations; and outdoor microbial culture, which is often performed manually in traditional fermentation tanks with overhead agitators or air pumps for aeration. This results in easy sedimentation of the bacterial solution at the bottom, low mixing efficiency, and limited control over bacterial activity.
[0003] In summary, existing microbial cultivation equipment has the following disadvantages:
[0004] (1) Inability to apply on-site on a large scale: Laboratory equipment is large in size, consumes high energy, and relies on fixed infrastructure (such as constant temperature air conditioning), making it difficult to deploy in the wild or in an environment without power supply.
[0005] (2) Uneven mixing of bacterial liquid: Traditional stirring devices cannot avoid sedimentation, resulting in uneven distribution of bacterial liquid activity at the bottom and unstable quality during large-scale culture (structural defect: the stirrer is located at the top of the container, making it difficult to stir the sediment at the bottom).
[0006] (3) Inaccurate temperature control: External heating methods respond slowly and are difficult to control temperature evenly (principle defect: relying on an external heat source and not in direct contact with the bacterial solution).
[0007] (4) Lack of monitoring of bacterial liquid activity: There is a lack of real-time monitoring methods such as conductivity. Manual detection of parameters such as pH and activity cannot provide real-time feedback, which affects the culture quality.

[0043] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0044] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
[0045] For example, please refer to Figures 1 to 8 As shown:
[0046] To solve the problems mentioned in the technical solution, the embodiment of the present application provides an on-site large-scale culture device suitable for MICP microbial fermentation, including a fermentation barrel 1, an oxygen pump 11 is evenly arranged at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, a twin-screw pump 12 is symmetrically arranged in the middle of the fermentation barrel 1, an intelligent control box 13 is installed on the twin-screw pump 12, an exhaust pipe 14 is opened on the upper surface of the fermentation barrel 1, a two-way valve 15 is installed on the outer surface of the middle of the fermentation barrel 1, and further includes a multi-point monitoring aeration mechanism 2 and a reflux regulation mechanism 3;
[0047] The multi-point monitoring aeration mechanism 2 is arranged at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, and the multi-point monitoring aeration mechanism 2 is used to precipitate, stir and uniformly aerate the culture solution at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1;
[0048] The reflux regulating mechanism 3 is arranged above the multi-point monitoring aeration mechanism 2 and is used for dynamic detection of the culture solution and prevention of precipitation;
[0049] Among them, the inner wall of the fermentation barrel 1 is embedded with a resistance wire, and the intelligent control box 13 is equipped with a pH sensor, a temperature sensor, a control logic unit adaptive adjustment algorithm, and a conductivity sensor. The conductivity sensor is used to quantitatively evaluate the activity of microorganisms. The twin-screw pump 12 is provided with a resistance wire and a temperature sensor inside the pump body to achieve rapid preheating of the bacterial solution.
[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, this solution provides a heat exchange chamber on the inner wall of 12, and a temperature sensor is installed in the heat exchange chamber, and a resistance wire is installed in the heat exchange chamber. The temperature sensor can control the heating of the resistance wire, and the hot water can be added to the heat exchange chamber through the sealing cover that can be threaded and rotated on the side of the drive motor above 12. The heating of the hot water by the resistance wire can achieve heat exchange with the bacterial liquid through the inner wall of the twin-screw pump 12 after the heated water is heated, so that the temperature of the bacterial liquid can be controlled more accurately. The temperature of the culture liquid can be controlled at all times by the twin-screw pump 12 and the temperature control device inside the fermentation barrel 1, and the bacterial liquid can be maintained at a constant temperature of ±1°C in an environment of -10°C to 40°C, adapting to extreme temperatures in the field.
[0051] The specific temperature control process is as follows Figure 8 shown.
[0052] In this solution, pulleys are evenly installed on the lower surface of the fermentation barrel 1, and the fermentation barrel 1 can be quickly moved by the pulleys. At the same time, two-way valves 15 are installed on both sides of the fermentation barrel 1. When facing the demand for mixed culture of larger bacterial liquids, it is only necessary to add a fermentation barrel 1 and quickly connect the two-way valve 15. The modular design supports parallel connection of multiple devices in the fermentation barrel 1. The culture capacity of a single set of devices in the fermentation barrel 1 can reach 500L, which can be expanded to thousands of liters after parallel connection. It is detachable and combinable, can adapt to complex on-site working conditions, and meet the needs of the engineering site. At the same time, the temperature of the culture liquid can be controlled at all times by the twin-screw pump 12 and the temperature control device inside the fermentation barrel 1. The bacterial liquid can be maintained at a constant temperature of ±1°C in an environment of -10°C to 40°C, adapting to extreme temperatures in the field.
[0053] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the middle part of the sedimentation scraper 21 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, and the oxygen pump 11 is evenly installed on the sedimentation scraper 21. The middle part of the sedimentation scraper 21 is fixedly connected to the transmission shaft 22, and the outer surface of the transmission shaft 22 is fixedly connected to the first transmission tooth 23, and the tooth surface of the first transmission tooth 23 is meshed with the second transmission tooth 24; the bottom of the second transmission tooth 24 is provided with an inner gear disc 25, and the middle part of the inner gear disc 25 is provided with an engaging groove. The second transmission tooth 24 is evenly rotatably connected to the middle part of the inner gear disc 25, and the tooth surface of the second transmission tooth 24 away from the first transmission tooth 23 is meshed in the engaging groove provided in the inner gear disc 25, and the outer surface of the inner gear disc 25 is evenly installed with an arc-surface pushing plate 26; the arc-surface pushing plate 26 is evenly provided with guide holes.
[0054] A driving motor is installed at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, which drives the middle part of the sedimentation scraper 21 to rotate through the driving motor. The rotation of the sedimentation scraper 21 drives the first transmission tooth 23 to drive the second transmission tooth 24 to rotate in the opposite direction. The rotation of the second transmission tooth 24 drives the inner gear disc 25 to rotate synchronously again. In this scheme, the scraper at the bottom of the sedimentation scraper 21 can be used to scrape the sediment at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1 to prevent uniform sediment from adhering to the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1. The bottom of the fermentation barrel 1 can be stirred by the rotation and scraping of the sedimentation scraper 21 and the inner gear disc 25 rotating in the opposite direction relative to the sedimentation scraper 21. The arc-surface pushing plate 26 uniformly welded on the inner gear disc 25 can accelerate the flow of the bacteria liquid at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1 through the guide holes on the arc-surface pushing plate 26, thereby preventing the sedimentation of the bacteria liquid again.
[0055] Furthermore, the oxygen pump 11 is evenly installed on the sedimentation scraper 21, and the oxygen pump 11 is used to aerate the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1. Compared with the traditional technology of fixing the aeration at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, local aeration of the culture liquid occurs. Through the arrangement of this scheme, the oxygen pump 11 is used to rotate synchronously with the sedimentation scraper 21. When the sedimentation scraper 21 cleans and stirs the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, the oxygen pump 11 can simultaneously aerate the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1. The rotation of the oxygen pump 11 can achieve uniform aeration coverage of the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, thereby reducing the occurrence of local aeration, allowing the bacterial liquid to undergo a more uniform aerobic reaction, and increasing the uniformity of the uniform culture.
[0056] Furthermore, the upper end of the transmission shaft 22 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 27, the inner wall of the fermentation barrel 1 is rotatably connected to a swivel 28, both ends of the connecting plate 27 are fixedly connected to the swivel 28, and the twin-screw pump 12 is symmetrically mounted on the connecting plate 27;
[0057] This solution adopts the method of synchronously driving the rotation of the inner gear disc 25 and the connecting plate 27 through the transmission shaft 22, so that the connecting plate 27 rotates in the opposite direction relative to the inner gear disc 25, and drives the twin-screw pump 12 to rotate evenly in the fermentation barrel 1 through the connecting plate 27. Compared with the fixed twin-screw pump 12 installation, this solution adopts dynamic pumping of the bacterial liquid, so that the twin-screw pump 12 can pump and discharge the bacterial liquid at different positions at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, thereby avoiding the unavoidable precipitation of the traditional stirring device, resulting in uneven distribution of the activity of the bacterial liquid at the bottom. The bacterial liquid at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1 is evenly and dynamically pumped to the top of the fermentation barrel 1 by the twin-screw pump 12, and the twin-screw pump 12 pumps the bacterial liquid at the bottom of the incubator to the upper part, forming an up-and-down circulation mixing mode. This mixing mode can break the concentration gradient in the bacterial liquid, evenly distribute nutrients, oxygen, etc., and improve the growth rate and metabolic activity of the bacteria.
[0058] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, a servo drive motor is installed on the twin-screw pump 12, and a drive gear 32 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft of the servo drive motor. The inner surface of the filter cover 31 is rotatably connected to an inner gear ring 33. The outer surface of the inner gear ring 33 is provided with a sliding tooth groove, and the tooth surface of the drive gear 32 is engaged with the sliding tooth groove of the inner gear ring 33;
[0059] The servo motor rotates to drive the driving gear 32 to drive the inner gear ring 33 to rotate and adjust in the inner wall of the filter cover 31.
[0060] The inner tooth surface of the inner gear ring 33 is meshed with a third transmission tooth 34, and the third transmission tooth 34 is rotatably connected to the filter cover 31. A guide groove 37 is provided on the circumference of the filter cover 31. An L-shaped multifunctional plate 35 is provided on the circumference of the filter cover 31. Sliding teeth are evenly provided on the L-shaped multifunctional plate 35. The sliding tooth surface of the L-shaped multifunctional plate 35 meshes with the third transmission tooth 34; a fixed block 38 is fixedly connected to the side of the L-shaped multifunctional plate 35 close to the sliding teeth, and the fixed block 38 is slidably connected to the guide groove 37. A scraper 36 is fixedly connected to the end of the L-shaped multifunctional plate 35 away from the sliding teeth, and the scraper 36 slides on the upper surface of the filter hole at the bottom of the filter cover 31;
[0061] Among them, such as Figure 6 As shown, the L-shaped multifunctional plate 35 is arranged in an L-shape. The sliding movement of the L-shaped multifunctional plate 35 controls the size of the liquid inlet of the twin-screw pump 12. Simultaneously, the sliding of the cleaning plate 36 across the surface of the filter screen 31 prevents clogging of the filter screen 31 caused by bacterial liquid accumulation. By controlling the size of the liquid inlet of the twin-screw pump, this solution allows precise adjustment of the bacterial liquid delivery rate to meet the needs of different culture stages. In the early stages of culture, the liquid inlet size can be reduced to avoid excessive shear forces on the bacteria. In the later stages of culture, the liquid inlet size can be increased to accelerate mixing. Mixing by the twin-screw pump 12 prevents bacterial sedimentation at the bottom of the incubator, reducing bacterial death and degradation.
[0062] The specific implementation steps in the above embodiment are as follows:
[0063] Step 1: assemble and start the fermentation barrel 1 on site; transport the culture unit of the fermentation barrel 1 to the project site, connect the pipeline, power supply and control module through the two-way valve 15 quick interface; inject preheated water into the twin-screw pump 12, set the initial temperature according to the environment, and start the internal circulation.
[0064] The specific steps are as follows:
[0065] First, start the drive motor installed at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, and then start the drive motor to drive the Figure 3The sedimentation scraper 21 shown starts to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the sedimentation scraper 21 can clean the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1 to prevent the bacterial liquid from depositing and adhering to the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1. At the same time, the transmission shaft 22 drives the inner gear disc 25 through the engagement of the second transmission gear 24 to drive the cambered surface flow-pushing plate 26 to rotate in the opposite direction relative to the sedimentation scraper 21. The rotation of the cambered surface flow-pushing plate 26 can accelerate the stirring of the bacterial liquid at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1. At the same time, the flow guide holes evenly opened on the cambered surface flow-pushing plate 26 can accelerate the flow of the bacterial liquid at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1. At the same time, the transmission of the transmission shaft 22 can synchronously drive the connecting plate 27 to drive the twin-screw pump 12 to rotate in the fermentation barrel 1, and drive the connecting plate 27 to drive the The twin-screw pump 12 rotates evenly in the fermentation barrel 1. Compared with the fixed twin-screw pump 12 installation, this solution adopts dynamic pumping of the bacterial liquid, so that the twin-screw pump 12 can pump and discharge the bacterial liquid at different positions at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, thereby avoiding the precipitation that cannot be avoided by the traditional stirring device, resulting in uneven distribution of the activity of the bacterial liquid at the bottom. The twin-screw pump 12 uniformly and dynamically pumps the bacterial liquid at the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1 to the top of the fermentation barrel 1, and the twin-screw pump 12 pumps the bacterial liquid at the bottom of the incubator to the upper part, forming an up-and-down circulation mixing mode. This mixing mode can break the concentration gradient in the bacterial liquid, make nutrients, oxygen, etc. evenly distributed, and improve the growth rate and metabolic activity of the bacteria.
[0066] Step 2: Bacterial liquid loading and expansion.
[0067] Inject bacterial liquid and culture medium into the first set of fermentation barrels 1, gradually connect the new units of fermentation barrel 1 through the two-way valve 15, the system automatically balances the flow of each unit, pours culture medium into the new fermentation barrel 1, opens the two-way valve 15 between the first set of fermentation barrels 1 and the new fermentation barrel 1, and transfers the cultured bacteria in the first set of fermentation barrels 1 to the new fermentation barrel 1. The cycle continues until the fermentation barrels 1 are full of bacteria. At this time, bacteria with different activities can be obtained, and bacteria with the same activity can be obtained at different time periods.
[0068] Step 3: Intelligent control example.
[0069] The resistance wire embedded in the inner wall of the fermentation barrel 1 is started to heat the ambient temperature. When the ambient temperature reaches the specified temperature, the control unit increases the power of the resistance wire and simultaneously speeds up the flow rate of the twin-screw pump 12 to balance the heat.
[0070] The specific operation process is as follows by controlling the size of the liquid inlet at the bottom of the twin-screw pump 12:
[0071] First, the control system in the intelligent control box 13 is used to control the servo motor installed on the twin-screw pump 12 to start. At this time, the rotation of the servo motor can drive the driving gear 32 to drive the inner gear ring 33 to rotate. When the inner gear ring 33 rotates, the inner tooth surface of the inner gear ring 33 and the L-shaped multi-function plate 35 engage with each other, and the rotation of the inner gear ring 33 can drive the third transmission gear 34 to drive the L-shaped multi-function plate 35 to slide on the filter cover 31. By controlling the sliding between the L-shaped multi-function plates 35, the size of the liquid inlet between the L-shaped multi-function plate 35 and the twin-screw pump 12 can be controlled. By controlling the size of the liquid inlet of the twin-screw pump, the delivery amount of the bacterial liquid can be accurately adjusted to meet the needs of different culture stages; in the early stage of culture, the size of the liquid inlet can be reduced to avoid excessive shear force on the bacteria; in the later stage of culture, the size of the liquid inlet can be increased to speed up the mixing speed. Mixing by the twin-screw pump 12 can prevent the bacteria from depositing at the bottom of the culture vessel and reduce the death and degradation of the bacteria.
[0072] Furthermore, buffer solution is automatically injected when pH exceeds the limit; the oxygen meter is started at the bottom of the fermentation barrel at regular intervals to enhance bacterial activity. When the conductivity needle detects a decrease in activity, the oxygen pump 11 is automatically triggered for pressurized aeration. Since the oxygen pump 11 is installed on the sedimentation scraper 21, the rotation of the sedimentation scraper 21 can synchronously drive the oxygen pump 11 to start rotating. In this solution, the oxygen pump 11 is rotated synchronously with the sedimentation scraper 21. When the sedimentation scraper 21 cleans and stirs the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1 can be aerated synchronously through the oxygen pump 11. The rotation of the oxygen pump 11 can achieve uniform aeration coverage of the bottom of the fermentation barrel 1, thereby reducing the occurrence of local aeration, allowing the bacterial liquid to undergo aerobic reaction more evenly, and increasing the uniformity of uniform culture.
[0073] like Figure 8 As shown, when a sensor installed in the heat exchange chamber (12) detects that the bacterial solution has not reached the appropriate temperature, the system automatically starts to read the real-time temperature of the current temperature sensor. At this time, the control circuit in the system compares the received electrical signal with a preset temperature value, which is set according to the needs of bacterial culture and is usually a constant value. When the control circuit detects that the actual temperature of the bacterial solution is lower than the preset temperature, it sends a control signal, which activates the resistance wire to heat the water in the heat exchange chamber. The heat generated by the resistance wire is transferred to the water in the heat exchange chamber. Through the heat exchange between the water and the inner wall (12), the inner wall (12) controls the temperature of the bacterial solution, thereby gradually increasing the temperature of the bacterial solution.
[0074] During the heating process, the temperature sensor continuously monitors the temperature of the bacterial solution. When the temperature approaches the preset value, the temperature sensor feeds this information back to the control circuit. The control circuit then adjusts the heating power of the resistance wire based on this feedback signal to ensure that the temperature of the bacterial solution remains stable near the preset value. Through the temperature sensor's continuous monitoring and the control circuit's adjustment, the temperature of the bacterial solution will eventually stabilize near the preset value, creating a stable temperature control environment.
[0075] Step 4: Exhaust treatment.
[0076] A silent fan is installed in the exhaust pipe 14. The silent fan adjusts its speed according to the gas sensor data, and the exhaust port is connected to an extension pipe to an unmanned area 30 meters away.
