Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fermentation tanks, in particular to a heat-insulating biogas anaerobic fermentation tank. Background Art

[0002] Biogas fermentation, also known as anaerobic digestion or fermentation, refers to the process by which organic matter, under certain conditions of moisture, temperature, and anaerobic conditions, is broken down and metabolized by various microorganisms to form a combustible mixture of gases, such as methane and carbon dioxide. Due to the different operating environments of fermentation tanks, in cold weather, insufficient insulation may lead to insufficient biogas fermentation. Furthermore, after the fermentation material reacts, it tends to accumulate and sink to the bottom, resulting in incomplete and slow fermentation. Therefore, we have designed an insulated biogas anaerobic fermentation tank to improve the fermentation rate and efficiency. It promotes material mixing, ensuring full contact between the fermentation materials and microorganisms, ensuring that the microorganisms can evenly act on the organic matter and improve reaction efficiency. It also improves mass transfer, facilitating the transfer of nutrients, intermediates, and gases, avoiding localized over- or under-concentrations and creating a more favorable growth environment for microorganisms. It prevents stratification and sedimentation, maintaining a uniform state of the fermentation material and preventing solid precipitation and stratification, thereby ensuring the uniformity and stability of the entire fermentation system. Furthermore, it releases gases promptly to prevent gas accumulation from inhibiting the fermentation process. Utility Model Content

[0021] In order to further understand the content of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an insulated biogas anaerobic fermentation tank, including a stirring tank body 1, an insulating tank body 2 is fixedly arranged on one side of the stirring tank body 1, a monitoring tank body 3 is fixedly arranged on the side of the insulating tank body 2 away from the stirring tank body 1, the upper end of the insulating tank body 2 is fixedly arranged with a feed port 4, the stirring tank body 1 includes an outer shell 11, a stirring rod assembly 12 is penetrated inside the end of the outer shell 11 away from the insulating tank body 2, the other end of the outer shell 11 is fixedly connected to the insulating tank body 2, and an air valve 13 is fixedly arranged on the end of the outer shell 11 away from the insulating tank body 2. When the fermentation raw materials and microorganisms are fully in contact for fermentation, the sediment raw materials generated cannot fully contact with the microorganisms. By starting the stirring rod assembly 12, the insulating tank body 2 is slowly stirred, so that the microorganisms and the raw materials are fully in contact for fermentation, and the waste gas generated at the beginning can be discharged through the air valve 13.

[0023] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 4 , an insulated biogas anaerobic fermentation tank, the stirring rod assembly 12 includes a servo motor 121, the driving end of the servo motor 121 is fixedly mounted on the shell 11, the driving end of the servo motor 121 is fixedly mounted with a turntable 122, and the turntable 122 is movably mounted inside the shell 11, and a connecting rod 123 is fixedly provided on the end of the turntable 122 away from the servo motor 121, and a rotating frame 124 is fixedly provided on the end of the connecting rod 123 away from the turntable 122, and a plurality of stirring rods 125 are fixedly provided on the outer side of the two ends of the rotating frame 124 away from the connecting rod 123, and a rotating paddle 126 is arranged around the outer side of the two ends of the rotating frame 124 away from the connecting rod 123. The stirring of the raw materials is driven by the servo motor 121 to rotate the rotating frame 124, so that the stirring rod 125 stirs the bottom raw materials. Since some dead corners cannot be stirred, the rotation of the rotating paddle 126 makes the stirring of the raw materials more uniform.

[0024] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2, an insulated biogas anaerobic fermentation tank, the insulated tank body 2 includes an external tank body 21, one end of the external tank body 21 is fixedly connected to the stirring tank body 1, and the other end of the external tank body 21 is fixedly connected to the monitoring tank body 3, a heating ring 22 is fixedly provided on the inner side of the external tank body 21, and an internal tank body 23 is fixedly provided on the inner side of the heating ring 22, at least four supporting legs 25 are provided at the lower end of the outer side of the external tank body 21, a discharge port assembly 24 is penetrated at the lower end of the external tank body 21, and a discharge port assembly 24 is penetrated at the lower end of the internal tank body 23. The fermentation tank has high requirements on the temperature and thermal insulation of objects. The temperature is maintained by the heating ring 22 between the external tank body 21 and the internal tank body 23, which guides the fermentation of microorganisms, and the fermented waste residue is discharged through the discharge port assembly 24.

[0025] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 6 , an insulated biogas anaerobic fermentation tank, the discharge port assembly 24 includes a bolt 241, a threaded rod 242 is provided on the inner side of the bolt 241, the threaded rod 242 is threadedly connected to the bolt 241, and the waste is moved out by rotating the threaded rod 242, so that it is discharged from the discharge port assembly 24.

[0026] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 5 An insulated biogas anaerobic fermentation tank, the monitoring tank body 3 includes an outer shell 31, an exhaust pipe 34 is provided inside the end of the outer shell 31 away from the insulated tank body 2, and a valve 35 is provided at the output end of the exhaust pipe 34. An observation port 32 is fixedly provided at the end of the outer shell 31 away from the insulated tank body 2, and an air pressure monitoring sensor 33 is fixedly provided at the end of the outer shell 31 away from the insulated tank body 2. We judge whether stirring is needed by observing at the observation port 32, and judge whether the gas needs to be discharged through the exhaust pipe 34 by the air pressure monitoring sensor 33.

[0028] Working principle: When the fermentation raw materials and microorganisms are in full contact for fermentation, the sedimented raw materials produced cannot fully contact with the microorganisms. We judge whether stirring is needed by observing at the observation port 32, and judge whether the gas needs to be discharged through the exhaust pipe 34 by the air pressure monitoring sensor 33. When stirring is needed, the servo motor 121 drives the rotating frame 124 to rotate, so that the stirring rod 125 stirs the sedimented raw materials in the internal tank body 23. Since some dead corners cannot be stirred, the rotation of the rotating paddle 126 makes the stirring of the raw materials more uniform, and the waste gas generated at the beginning can be discharged through the air valve 13. When we need to set requirements for the temperature and thermal insulation of the fermentation tank, the heating ring 22 between the external tank body 21 and the internal tank body 23 is used to maintain its temperature, which guides the fermentation of microorganisms. The fermented waste residue is discharged through the discharge port assembly 24, and the raw materials are added through the feed port 4.
