The fermentation industry is a very broad industry in the light industry ,including food additives, medicine, biological preparations, condiments, alcohol, chemical products, etc. Its products are mainly organic acids, organic acid salts, sugar alcohols and functional proteins.
Many processes in the fermentation industry require evaporation or evaporative crystallization devices, such as fermentation broth concentration, fermentation product extraction, and fermentation wastewater treatment.Actually,the plate evaporator has been widely used in the fermentation industry.
Common processes of plate-type fermentation evaporation include: single-effect evaporation, multi-effect evaporation, TVR evaporation, MVR evaporation, and evaporation-crystallization combined processes.
When the plate evaporator is used in the fermentation industry, because the production scale of its industrial field is generally relatively large, energy saving and consumption reduction are required. Many manufacturers will choose to use three-effect or four-effect evaporation. When the effect number continues to increase, the equipment cost is higher, and the operating cost is not significantly reduced, and the time for the material to flow through the equipment is also longer, so the evaporation effect number should be reasonably selected according to the actual situation.
The materials in the fermentation industry are mostly organic matter and organic acid salts. The boiling point rise is relatively low and there are many heat-sensitive substances. Therefore, MVR plate evaporation and crystallization devices is suitable fo rthe fermentation evaporator.
Fermentation evaporation generally adopts PLC control system, distributed control structure, modular structure connection, simple operation and convenient maintenance. It can be fully automated monitoring and control of agitation, temperature, PH, foaming, feeding, pressure, flow, and other sterilization parameters.
