Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fermentation technology, and in particular to an auxiliary material addition device for fermentation. Background Technology

[0002] Fermentation technology is widely used in food, beverage, biopharmaceutical, feed and chemical industries. Through the metabolic activities of microorganisms under specific conditions, raw materials are transformed into products with specific flavors, functions or activities. In order to ensure the growth status and metabolic efficiency of microorganisms during the fermentation process, it is often necessary to add a variety of auxiliary materials to the fermentation system at appropriate times, such as nutrients, pH adjusters, defoamers, enzyme preparations, mineral salts and trace elements. The amount, time and method of adding these auxiliary materials directly affect the stability of the fermentation process and the quality of the product.

[0003] When adding existing fermentation additives, they are usually poured directly onto the surface of the raw materials and mixed into the raw materials using a stirring device. This process takes a lot of time and is inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content
