Abstract
Description
@@@@@I@@@ICM
La présente invention a pour objet le contrôle des ferme@ta- tions produisant des gaz.@@@@@ I @@@ ICM
The present invention relates to the control of farms producing gas.
Par contrôle, on e@tend ici l'action d'accélérer ou de ralontir à volo@té le déroulement de la fermentation. By control, we e @ tend here the action of accelerating or slowing down by volo @ t the progress of the fermentation.
Nombre de procédés existants de mise en oeuvre de phénom@nes de fermentation ne cherc@e pas à en controler le déroulement, mais à atteindre un certain état final dans les reilleurs conditicns. A number of existing processes for implementing fermentation phenomena do not seek to control the progress thereof, but to reach a certain final state in the general reillers.
D'autres procedes visent a empécher la poursuite de la fermentation (conservation),les moyens utilisés sont essentiellement le contrôle de la température (basse pour les conservations, tempérée et cons- tantes daas les autres cas) et/ ou l'action sur la composition chimique du milieu.Other procedures aim to prevent the continuation of fermentation (conservation), the means used are essentially temperature control (low for conservation, temperate and constant in other cases) and / or action on the chemical composition of the medium.
flans les techniques connues concernant les fermentations pro duisant des Uaz, les ingrédients de la réaction sont retenus dans une enceinte qui, généralement, laisse continuellement échapper le gaz produit. In known techniques concerning fermentations producing Uaz, the ingredients of the reaction are retained in an enclosure which, generally, continuously lets out the gas produced.
flans certains cas, par contre, l'enceinte est scellée, mais seulement quand la fermentation a atteint un stade tel que la quantité de gaz restant à produire est faible (exemple du cidre bouché non pasteurisé). in some cases, on the other hand, the enclosure is sealed, but only when the fermentation has reached a stage such that the quantity of gas remaining to be produced is low (example of unpasteurized cider cider).
La présente invention retient de ces derniers cas le fait que les fermentations peuvent se produire sous pression supérieure à l'atmosphérique. The present invention retains from these latter cases the fact that fermentations can occur under pressure greater than the atmospheric.
@insi, lton sait que les putréfactions, catégorie de fermentation produisant du gaz carbonique, peuvent se produire drns les profondeurs abyssales où la pression totale peut atteindre plusieurs centaines de fois l'atmosphérique. encore faut-il,-dans ce cas, distinguer de la pression totale la pression partieile de l'espèce chimique produite, le gaz carbonique : cette pression partielle est peu différente de celle qui règne au voisinage de la surface. So we know that putrefaction, a category of fermentation producing carbon dioxide, can occur in abyssal depths where the total pressure can reach several hundred times the atmospheric. still it is necessary, in this case, to distinguish from the total pressure the partile pressure of the chemical species produced, carbon dioxide: this partial pressure is little different from that which prevails in the vicinity of the surface.
L'invention est fondée sur le fait qu'une élévation de la pression partielle du gaz produit ralentit la fermentation alors qu'une diminution de cette pression l'accélère, toutes choses égales par ailleurs. @lus précisament, l'invention concerne un procédé caractérisé par le fait que on utilise un agent de pression pour contrôler la cinétique de la fermentation produisant du gaz en fonction des besoins, le champ de pression ainsi crée permettant à lui seul d'accélérer ou de ralentir à volonté la réaction, le dit agent contenant au moins les mêmes espaces chimiques que le gaz généré par la fermentation. The invention is based on the fact that an increase in the partial pressure of the gas produced slows down the fermentation while a decrease in this pressure accelerates it, all other things being equal. @more precisely, the invention relates to a process characterized by the fact that a pressure agent is used to control the kinetics of the fermentation producing gas as required, the pressure field thus created allowing it alone to accelerate or to slow down the reaction at will, the said agent containing at least the same chemical spaces as the gas generated by the fermentation.
Le procédé de l'invention peut présenter on outre l'une au moins des caractéristiques suivantes
- l'agent do pression contient des quantités de gaz produites par la fermentation
- les variations du champ de pression sont obtenues en agissant sur 1 ' évacuation des gaz produits.The method of the invention can have, in addition, at least one of the following characteristics
- the pressure agent contains quantities of gas produced by fermentation
- The variations in the pressure field are obtained by acting on the evacuation of the gases produced.
L'invention concerne aussi un dispositif de mise en oeuvre du procédé caractérisé par le fait que l'enceinte qui renferme pour un temps les matières intervenant dans la fermentation est construite pour résister a une pression telle que, cette pression une fois atteinte, la fermentation soit do ce seul fait sensiblement ralentie. En variante, l'enceinte est munie d'un moyen variable d'évacuation des gaz permettant de faire varier la pression dans Itonceinte, dans les limites requises. The invention also relates to a device for implementing the process, characterized in that the enclosure which for a time contains the materials involved in the fermentation is constructed to withstand a pressure such that, once this pressure is reached, the fermentation either do this fact significantly slowed down. As a variant, the enclosure is provided with a variable means for evacuating the gases making it possible to vary the pressure in Itonceinte, within the required limits.
Revenant à l'exemple du cidre bouché, l'on sait qu'il faut sceller la bouteille quand la concentration en sucres fermentescibles ost descendu à tin niveau précis : trop tard, la quantité restante sera trop faible et le gaz carbonique, produit en quantité insuffisante, ne fera pas pétiller le cidre ; trop tôt, une production trop abondante confinée dans une bouteille relativement fragile la fera eclater. Par contre, selon l'invention, si la bouteille était suffisemment résistante, la pression de gaz carbonique s'y élGverait au point d'arrêter la fermentation avant la consommatio@ complète des sucres. Ce dernier résultat est parfois recherché, mais il est obtenu par d'autres procédés tels que la pasteurisation. Returning to the example of cider cork, we know that we must seal the bottle when the concentration of fermentable sugars is lowered to a precise level: too late, the remaining quantity will be too low and the carbon dioxide produced in quantity insufficient, will not sparkle cider; too early, too abundant production confined in a relatively fragile bottle will burst it. On the other hand, according to the invention, if the bottle were sufficiently resistant, the carbon dioxide pressure would rise there to the point of stopping the fermentation before the complete consumption of the sugars. This last result is sometimes sought, but it is obtained by other methods such as pasteurization.
Ce dernier procédé, cependant, est quasiment irréversible car il détruit les agonts actifs de la fermentation. Ce n'est.pas le cas de la pressente invention, où los agents actifs sont seulement inhibés par l'élévation de la pression partielle du gaz qu'ils produisent, et retrouvent leur activité quahd cette pression s'abaisse. This latter process, however, is almost irreversible as it destroys the active stages of fermentation. This is not the case with the present invention, where the active agents are only inhibited by the increase in the partial pressure of the gas which they produce, and regain their activity when this pressure is lowered.
L'invention est particulièrement utile dans les cas des fermentations dont le produit le plus recherché est le gaz, comme par exemple, la fermentation méthanique produisant le "@iogaz". Dans ces cas, le rythme de la consommation du gaz no coïncide généralement pas avec celui de sa production, ce clui, avec les tochni - ques actuellement connues occasionne des pertes ou des problèmes complexes de stockage. Il serait préférable de stocker les ingrédients de la fermentation et d'agir sur sa cinétique pour adapter la production de gaz aux besoins. 'est ce que l'invention permet de réaliser. The invention is particularly useful in the case of fermentations in which the most sought-after product is gas, such as, for example, methane fermentation producing "@iogas". In these cases, the rate of consumption of gas no generally does not coincide with that of its production, this key, with the currently known chemicals, causes losses or complex storage problems. It would be preferable to store the ingredients of the fermentation and act on its kinetics to adapt the production of gas to needs. is what the invention allows to achieve.
Le cas le plus simple est celui où la consommation ne néces- site qu'une pression faiblement supérieure à l'atmosphérique comme par exemples les usages domestiques des gaz combustibles, alors que la cinétique des fermentations méthanique reste appréciable à des pressions plus élevées. L'installation complète, y compris l'invention dans une de ses variantes, se limite alors à une citerne résistant à la pression interne (entre 10 et 30 fois la pression atmosphérique par exemple) munie d'un détendeur regulant le débit en fonction des besoins (type détendeur de bouteille de gaz ligué fi6), d'une soupape de sécurité, d'un systeme d'introduction et de vidan-ge pour les liquides et solides intervenant dans la réaction et éventuellement d'un chauffage simple. Dans ce cas, la consommation instantanée peut varier de zéro à plusieurs fois ## la production moyenne sans délai et sans perte. The simplest case is that where consumption requires only a pressure slightly higher than the atmospheric one as for example the domestic uses of combustible gases, while the kinetics of methane fermentations remain appreciable at higher pressures. The complete installation, including the invention in one of its variants, is then limited to a tank resistant to internal pressure (between 10 and 30 times atmospheric pressure for example) equipped with a pressure regulator regulating the flow according to the requirements (type regulator gas cylinder ligated fi6), a safety valve, an introduction and draining system for liquids and solids involved in the reaction and possibly simple heating. In this case, instant consumption can vary from zero to several times ## average production without delay and without loss.
Les données pratiques de fabrication et d'installation du dispositif de l'invention (formes, dimensions et pression de calcul de enceinte, conception pratique du système de controle de pression) dépendent des circonstances d'utilisation et ne figurent pas parmi les revendications. The practical data for manufacturing and installing the device of the invention (shapes, dimensions and design pressure of the enclosure, practical design of the pressure control system) depend on the circumstances of use and are not included in the claims.
