Product introduction of Stainless Steel Pressure Tank
The stainless steel pressure tank is a high-performance fermentation and processing vessel widely used in beverage brewing, food production, and chemical processing industries.
It supports controlled fermentation processes including wine fermentation, enzymatic hydrolysis, cold immersion, and microbial cultivation. With integrated temperature control and automatic monitoring systems, it ensures stable production conditions and consistent product quality.
The tank is available in multiple capacities for laboratory, pilot and industrial-scale production.


Working principle
Step 1. Raw liquid materials are fed into stainless steel tank
Step 2. Automatic control system monitors pressure, temperature and pH
Step 3. Jacket system regulates heating or cooling based on process stage
Step 4. Fermentation process is maintained under controlled conditions
Step 5. In-situ sterilization system ensures hygienic environment
Step 6. Final fermented product is discharged for next processing stage
