Enzymatic Hydrolysis Tank

Overview and Definition

Our company specializes in the design and production of enzymatic hydrolysis tanks, stainless steel enzymatic hydrolysis tanks, and fully automatic enzymatic hydrolysis equipment. We hold the design and manufacturing qualifications for Class I and II pressure vessels, and have food/dairy engineering technicians with years of industry experience, as well as pharmaceutical process personnel with many years of design and installation experience. Welcome to call for consultation and discuss cooperation.

Enzymatic hydrolysis tank, also known as enzymatic hydrolysis reactor or bio-enzymatic hydrolysis reactor, is a stainless steel container that provides the temperature required for enzymatic hydrolysis, adjusts pH value, and offers stirring and mixing functions to maintain enzyme activity, facilitate enzymatic reactions, and accelerate and complete the biological reaction process.

 

Bio-enzymatic hydrolysis technology uses appropriate biological catalysts, namely bio-enzymes, to decompose substances, accelerate the decomposition and transformation process, and turn them into substances that are easy to utilize, thus achieving the desired goals of experiments or production processes. It is widely applied in fields such as textile dyeing and finishing, enzymatic hydrolysis and transformation of proteins, and biodegradation of wastewater.

 

Enzyme engineering is also a scientific technology that utilizes the biological catalytic function of enzymes and converts corresponding raw materials into useful substances through engineering means for application in social life. It includes the preparation of enzyme preparations, enzyme immobilization, enzyme modification and transformation, and enzyme reactors. The application of enzyme engineering is mainly concentrated in the food industry, light industry and pharmaceutical industry.

Composition and Functions

The main tank body of the enzymatic hydrolysis tank is welded with three layers of stainless steel. The inner tank is made of high-quality SUS316L stainless steel, and the inner tank is polished to meet the hygienic requirements of food and pharmaceutical industries. The interlayer is made of SUS304 stainless steel, and a stainless steel deflector is installed in the interlayer to facilitate the diversion of steam and circulating water. The outer layer is welded and filled with stainless steel for heat preservation, which is conducive to the realization of the enzymatic hydrolysis process.

 

The enzymatic hydrolysis system mainly includes enzymatic hydrolysis tank, steam heating system, circulating cooling system, stirring system, pH adjustment system, feeding system, discharging system, filtering system, cleaning system, electric control, preparation tank and other parts.
The enzymatic hydrolysis tank is equipped with heating, cooling, heat preservation and stirring functions. The tank body is designed with process nozzles such as material inlet, pure water inlet, discharge outlet and sampling port, which can provide conditions for the enzymatic hydrolysis process. After the enzymatic hydrolysis, the jacket can be opened to directly pass through steam to achieve enzyme inactivation function. After enzyme inactivation, the material can be cooled down and then the discharge valve can be opened for discharging. The enzymatic hydrolysis tank can be designed with an automatic control system, including process control of feeding, discharging, temperature control, stirring, pH adjustment, etc., which reduces labor intensity and enables fully automatic control of the enzymatic hydrolysis process.

Structural Features

  1. Capable of online CIP (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Sterilization-in-Place).
  2. Welds are polished and smoothed, with a flared design for welding, meeting hygienic requirements.
  3. The jacket is designed with a circulating deflector to facilitate heating and cooling processes with steam and circulating water.
  4. The inner tank is equipped with baffles to ensure sufficient reaction.
  5. The tank is designed with a stainless steel insulation layer, and the insulation medium adopts polyurethane foam. This is beneficial for temperature control during the enzymatic hydrolysis process, while reducing heat source loss and preventing safety accidents such as scalding.
  6. The inner tank features mirror polishing with Ra ≤ 0.4, ensuring hygienic conditions with no dead corners. The outer tank undergoes 2B and wire drawing treatment.
  7. The nozzles adopt a stretched flanging process with arc transitions, which are smooth and easy to clean without dead corners, ensuring the reliability and stability of the production process and meeting GMP requirements.

Nozzle Configuration

The tank is equipped with process nozzles such as manhole, feed inlet, discharge outlet, sight glass, spotlight, breather port, CIP (equipped with sanitary universal cleaning ball), SIP port, sterile sampling port, pH meter interface (supporting SIP), thermometer, temperature sensor, and cold and hot medium inlets and outlets.
The nozzles can be designed and manufactured according to the process requirements.
