AI Technical Summary
The fixed position of the steam delivery pipe in the jacket of the existing steam fermenter makes it difficult for steam to circulate, creating dead zones and affecting the heating effect of the materials inside the fermenter.
A uniform steam distribution mechanism is installed inside the fermentation tank, including a sprocket, an outer sealing ring, an inner sealing ring, and a rotating ring. The push plate has flow holes. The sprocket is driven by a motor to rotate the push plate, which promotes the uniform flow of steam and increases the contact area between the steam and the heat-conducting inner liner.
It improves the uniformity of steam heating, avoids the accumulation of steam in dead corners within the jacket, ensures uniform heating of materials in the fermenter, and the wear-resistant sealing ring material prevents steam leakage.
