[0002] Microbial fermentation refers to the process of using microorganisms to convert raw materials into products needed by humans through specific metabolic pathways under suitable conditions. The level of microbial fermentation production mainly depends on the genetic characteristics of the strain itself and the culture conditions.

[0004] While the microbial fermentation tank is in use, air can be introduced into the fermentation tank, but the air can only be introduced into the fixed layer area of the fermentation tank, resulting in slow contact of microorganisms in other layers of the fermentation tank, causing poor microbial fermentation effect. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the utility model provides a biological science microbial fermentation tank, which solves the problem that air can only be introduced into the fixed layer area of the fermentation tank, resulting in slow fermentation contact of microorganisms in other layers of the fermentation tank.

[0011] Preferably, valves are provided on the surfaces of the feed pipe and the discharge pipe. Beneficial effects

[0012] The utility model provides a biological science microbial fermentation tank. Compared with the existing technology, it has the following advantages:

[0013] (1) The utility model extracts oxygen by controlling the air inlet pipe on the vacuum pump, discharges the oxygen to the rotating pipe through the air outlet pipe, and makes the rotating pipe enter the jet pipe through the vent pipe, so that the multiple air outlets on the jet pipe spray oxygen into the layered areas at different heights.
