[0043] As Figures 1 to 8 shown, the present application provides an aerobic fermentation device for vegetable tail vegetables, comprising
[0044] The fermentation tank 100 is an open-top container.
[0045] The hollow tray 200 is arranged at the bottom of the fermentation tank 100 and divides the fermentation tank 100 into upper and lower spaces. The upper space is used to hold the fermentation material, and the lower space is a leachate collection chamber.
[0046] The aeration pipes are installed above and below the hollow tray 200, forming an upper aeration pipe group 310 and a lower aeration pipe group 320.
[0047] The fan 380 is used to supply air for aeration of the aeration pipes.
[0048] The leachate reflux mechanism 400 is used to return the leachate in the leachate collection chamber to the top of the fermentation tank 100.
[0049] The present application sets two groups of aeration pipes in the fermentation tank 100, uses the fan 380 to blow air into the fermentation material, which can not only supply oxygen to all parts of the fermentation material in time, but also reduce the fermentation temperature to prevent local temperature from being too high and causing uncontrolled aerobic fermentation. The present application can efficiently perform aerobic fermentation without stirring, greatly reducing the fermentation cost. The present application uses the leachate reflux mechanism 400 to return the leachate in the leachate collection chamber for reuse, so that the microorganisms carried by the leachate flow back into the fermentation material from top to bottom, and the microorganisms are evenly distributed in the fermentation material during the flow process, effectively avoiding uneven fermentation and improving the overall fermentation efficiency.
[0050] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the aerobic fermentation device further comprises a walking carrier 500, and the fermentation tank 100 is installed on the walking carrier 500. The aerobic fermentation device can be moved by the walking carrier 500, has mobility, can use single fermentation or row fermentation, and can start multiple fermentation tanks 100 according to the amount of solid waste generated in the park.
[0051] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the walking carrier 500 is a trolley, which comprises a frame 510, a handrail 520 installed on one side of the frame 510, and universal wheels 530 installed at the bottom of the frame 510. The frame 510 is used to carry the fermentation tank 100. The trolley has high flexibility and low cost.
[0052] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the upper aeration pipe group 310 is installed in the middle of the fermentation tank 100 by the aeration pipe support 360, which supports and shapes the upper aeration pipe group 310, prevents the aeration pipe from being dislocated when the fermentation material is filled, and thus reduces the aeration effect.
[0053] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the aeration pipe support 360 is detachably installed on the hollow tray 200 by several vertical rods 370, which are supported by 4 vertical rods 370 in this embodiment. Thus, the tank body of the fermentation tank 100 does not need to be opened or connected, which does not affect the safety of the tank body structure, is easy to clean, and the aeration pipe support 360 is easy to take and place. In addition, different sizes of aeration pipe supports 360 can be replaced according to different fermentation materials to adapt to the needs of high-efficiency aeration. For example, the height of the aeration pipe support 360 is about 50 cm by adjusting the height of the vertical rod 370.
[0054] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the pipe lines of the upper aeration pipe group 310 and the lower aeration pipe group 320 are in a concave shape on the water surface, and the concave directions of the two aeration pipe groups are opposite. The lower aeration pipe group 320 can be directly tied on the bottom of the hollow tray, and the upper aeration pipe group 310 is tied on the aeration pipe support 360. The aeration pipe support 360 can be a steel pipe support to meet the impact resistance requirement when the fermentation material is filled. The aeration pipe support 360 can be composed of four equal-length steel pipes connected end to end to form a square support, and then two cross bars are arranged between the two opposite steel pipes to form a grid-shaped support.
[0055] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the outlets of the fan 380 are connected to the upper aeration pipe group 310 and the lower aeration pipe group 320 through the gas conveying pipe 330, respectively. The gas conveying pipe 330 connected to the upper aeration pipe group 310 is provided with a first control valve 340, and the gas conveying pipe 330 connected to the lower aeration pipe group 320 is provided with a second control valve 350. The two control valves can be used to control whether the upper aeration pipe group 310 and the lower aeration pipe group 320 participate in aeration, respectively, to adapt to the needs of the fermentation process.
[0056] It should be noted that the aeration pipe can be made of soft plastic pipe or hard plastic pipe, which can be selected according to the construction difficulty and cost. For example, the aeration pipe is a micro-porous nanometer aeration pipe, which has uniform gas outlet and good anti-blocking property.
[0057] In some embodiments, the fermentation tank 100 can be made of metal or plastic. Of course, considering the anti-corrosion requirement, the plastic or glass steel material is preferred. The top edge of the fermentation tank 100 is provided with a folded edge 130 to increase the strength of the opening thereof.
[0058] In some embodiments, the top of the fermentation tank 100 is covered with a breathable film (not shown in the figure) to ensure air permeability while preventing foreign matter from entering the fermentation tank 100. Figure 1
[0059] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 , the hollow tray 200 includes a hollow plate 210 and a plurality of feet 220 arranged at the bottom of the hollow plate 210. The hollow tray 200 and the plurality of feet 220 can be made and installed in a split type or can be integrally injection molded by plastic. A large number of holes are formed in the hollow plate 210 to allow the liquid to permeate.
[0060] In some embodiments, a filter screen (not shown in the figure) is arranged on the hollow tray 200 to prevent the fermentation material from permeating into the liquid collection chamber. Figure 7
[0061] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 , 2 , 3, 6, the liquid permeation return mechanism 400 includes a collection box 410, a booster pump 420, and a return pipe 430. The collection box 410 is arranged at the bottom of the fermentation tank 100. The bottom of the liquid permeation collection chamber is provided with a liquid outlet 110 leading to the collection box 410. The return pipe 430 is arranged at the top of the fermentation tank 100. The booster pump 420 is used to pressurize the liquid in the collection box 410 and then send it to the return pipe 430 through a delivery pipe 440. In this application, the liquid permeation is collected by the collection box 410, then pressurized by the booster pump 420, and then dripped from the top of the fermentation tank 100, so that the microorganisms in the liquid permeation can be recycled. In this embodiment, the booster pump 420 can be a submersible pump.
[0062] It should be noted that the liquid outlet 110 at the bottom of the liquid permeation collection chamber (the bottom of the fermentation tank 100) can be merged by a collection pipe 120 and then introduced into the collection box 410.
[0063] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 6 , the return pipe 430 is arranged in a horizontal and vertical distribution to form a group of return pipes 430. A plurality of small holes (with a diameter of about 1 mm) for spraying the liquid permeation are formed at the bottom of each return pipe 430. The liquid permeation is uniformly sprayed and dripped through the small holes, and the uniformity of the liquid permeation spraying is improved by the uniform distribution, so that the microorganisms in the liquid permeation can play a role again and promote the uniform fermentation of the fermentation material.
[0064] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 8 The aerobic fermentation device further comprises a temperature monitoring system, which comprises a temperature control box 600 and a plurality of temperature sensors 610. At least one temperature sensor 610 is arranged outside the fermentation tank 100 for monitoring the ambient temperature, and the remaining temperature sensors 610 are distributed in the fermentation tank 100 for detecting the temperature of the material in the fermentation tank 100. The model of the temperature sensor 610 can be PT100. The temperature control box 600 is mainly used for displaying the temperature and performing simple control. For example, the temperature control box 600 contains a temperature controller. When the temperature exceeds the set value (such as 65℃), a start signal is sent to start the fan 380 for 10 minutes through the electromagnetic valve. A timer can also be set in the controller to start the fan 380 at a fixed time. This control part uses existing technology and does not affect the solution of the technical problems of the present application. The start and stop of the fan 380 can also be manually controlled or controlled by a timer.
[0065] As shown in Figure 8 The temperature sensor 610 for detecting the temperature of the material in the fermentation tank 100 can be directly buried in the fermentation material. For example, seven temperature sensors 610 can be arranged on the vertical cutting surface along the central axis of the fermentation tank 100 (on the same horizontal plane).
[0066] The use method of the present application is as follows:
[0067] The crushed vegetables, tail vegetables, straw and the like with a size of 3-6 cm are adjusted to a moisture content of about 60%, and an appropriate amount of microbial agent is added and mixed uniformly with the material, which is then put into the main body of the fermentation tank 100.
[0068] The fan 380 is controlled by temperature and time to start and stop. The first control valve 340 and the second control valve 350 are opened. During the day from 8:00 to 18:00, the valves are opened once every two hours at the whole hour. The ventilation time is 10 minutes. When the temperature of a certain temperature sensor 610 in the fermentation tank exceeds 65℃, the electromagnetic valve controls the fan 380 to start for 10 minutes.
[0069] During the test, when the fermentation material is degraded to a height of 50 cm, the first control valve 340 of the upper aeration pipe group 310 is closed. According to the amount of liquid generated in the collection box 410, the submersible pump is started to return the liquid. Specifically, when the liquid level in the collection box 410 covers the inlet of the submersible pump, the submersible pump is started.
[0070] The above embodiments are only used for describing the present application, and are not used for limiting the present application. Although the present application is described in detail with reference to the embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various combinations, modifications or equivalent replacements of the technical solutions of the present application do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present application, and should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
