During daily monitoring, the probe is inserted into the fermentation broth. When the pH detector detects that the pH exceeds the monitoring range, the pH detector will automatically respond, the connecting rod of the pH monitoring probe will rise, and the automatic spraying device and the stirrer will start working. When the space inside the tank body is sufficient, the pH monitoring probe can remain stationary, and the pH change of the fermentation broth can be monitored in real time.
[0028] Further, the tank body 1 is provided with a stirrer, which is arranged at the bottom of the tank body. The inner top of the tank body 1 is provided with an automatic spraying device, and the pH online monitoring device, the stirrer and the automatic spraying device are respectively connected with a controller. The stirrer can be arranged in multiple according to the size of the tank body, and is connected by a belt, so that only one stirrer needs to be driven to rotate to realize the rotation of all the stirrers at the same time for stirring operation. The stirrer mainly mixes and reacts the fermentation broth with the reagent in the feeding tank, and the automatic spraying device automatically sprays the reagent in the feeding tank into the tank body according to the monitored pH value.
[0029] Further, the stirrer includes a rotating shaft 9, which is arranged through the bottom of the tank body 1 and fixed by a bearing. The end of the rotating shaft 9 extending into the tank body 1 is provided with a blade 10 around the circumference, and the end of the rotating shaft 9 extending out of the tank body 1 is sleeved with a grooved wheel 11. The grooved wheel 11 is connected with a motor 12 through a belt, and the blade is driven to rotate by the motor to realize the stirring effect.
[0030] Further, the stirrer is arranged in multiple, and the stirrers are connected in sequence. The motor 12 is connected with one of the stirrers through a belt. As shown in Figure 3 , one stirrer is driven to rotate, thereby driving other stirrers to rotate, increasing the mixing efficiency of the fermentation broth and the reagent. The grooved wheel on the stirrer connected with the motor is operated in multiple to realize the belt connection of the stirrer with other stirrers and the motor at the same time.
[0031] Further, the automatic spraying device includes a feeding tank 2 arranged on the top of the tank body 1.

The pump pumps the reagent in the feeding tank into the spraying pipe to spray the reagent into the tank body, and the flow meter counts the use of the reagent.
[0032] Further, in order to realize uniform spraying of the reagent in the tank, one end of the pipeline 3 extending into the tank 1 is connected with a multi-channel rotary joint 13, the spraying pipe 14 is annular, a plurality of spray holes are arranged on the spraying pipe, the multi-channel rotary joint 13 is located at the center of the spraying pipe 14, a branch pipe 15 is connected to the liquid outlet on the side wall of the multi-channel rotary joint 13, and the other end of the branch pipe 15 is in communication with the spraying pipe 14. The number of branch pipes is determined according to the number of liquid outlets on the side wall of the multi-channel rotary joint 13, and meanwhile, the multi-channel rotary joint 13 with the required number of liquid outlets is selected according to requirements.
