It belongs to the category of microbial ecological engineering. There are many types of microbial mixed culture, such as combined mixed culture, sequential mixed culture, co-immobilized cell mixed culture and mixed immobilized cell mixed culture. For example, a mixing device for microbial fermentation recorded in the patent with patent announcement number CN216359007U achieves the effect of reducing the strain transfer process and avoiding the strain from being contaminated by external bacteria through the mutual cooperation between the main tank, auxiliary tank, support foot, motor seat, motor, connecting shaft, main stirring shaft, main gear, auxiliary stirring shaft, slave gear, rotating shaft, transmission gear, adjusting rod, partition, through hole, connecting pipe and slide groove, which solves the problem that the strain may be contaminated by external bacteria during the transfer process of mixed bacteria culture.
