Defoamers, air bladders, scrubber towers, circulating water pumps

Defoaming agents, air bags, scrubbers and circulating water pumps are commonly used equipment in industrial production, especially in biochemical processes such as fermentation tank areas, where these equipment play a key role. Below, I will give you a detailed introduction to the role and importance of these devices.

Defoaming agent

Defoamer is a chemical specifically designed to eliminate foam. In the fermentation tank area, a large amount of foam will be generated due to the progress of biochemical reactions. These foams may hinder the flow of gas and affect the normal progress of the fermentation process. At this point, the defoaming agent can play its role. Defoaming agents can effectively destroy the surface tension of the foam, causing the foam to burst, thereby eliminating the foam. This can ensure the smooth progress of the fermentation process and improve production efficiency.

Air bag

A gas bag is a device used to store gas. In the fermentation tank area, the treated carbon dioxide gas will first enter the air bag for storage. The main function of the air bag is to initially purify the gas, maintain the pressure balance of the fermentation gas source, and maintain the stability of the suction pressure of the compressor. In addition, the air bag can also play a buffering role in the compressor to avoid damage to the compressor caused by no air intake. When the gas in the air bag reaches a certain amount, it can be connected to the system control center through a contact switch, and the control center will automatically control the start and stop of the entire carbon dioxide recovery system.

Scrubber

A scrubber is a device used for gas scrubbing. In the fermentation tank area, the initially purified carbon dioxide gas needs further washing treatment. At this time, the scrubber plays an important role. The washing tower is equipped with stainless steel packing, which can increase the contact area between gas and water and improve the washing effect. The spray system at the top of the packing system can form a small waterfall of water, allowing carbon dioxide gas to pass through in countercurrent, and the water forms a liquid film on the surface of the packing, thereby removing water-soluble impurities in the fermentation gas in the packing, such as alcohol. The use of a circulation pump can recycle the washing water in the washing tower to achieve the purpose of saving water. After washing pretreatment, in order to make full use of water resources, a tap water unit needs to be used to replenish the washing water.

Circulating pump

A circulating water pump is a device used to transport liquids. In the scrubber, the circulating water pump can transport the wash water from one place to another to maintain water circulation. Through the action of the circulating water pump, the washing water can be continuously circulated in the washing tower to ensure the smooth progress of the washing process. At the same time, the circulating water pump can also control the flow rate and flow of water, so that the water can better contact the gas and improve the washing effect.

In short, equipment such as defoaming agents, air bags, scrubbers and circulating water pumps play an important role in biochemical processes such as fermentation tanks. They each play their own role to ensure the smooth progress of the production process and the quality of the products. In practical applications, the use and maintenance of these devices are also crucial. Only by correctly using and maintaining these equipment can we ensure their long-term stable operation and create greater value for the enterprise.
