Project Overview
Core Technology
Precision Environmental Control Unit: Integration of high-precision constant temperature & humidity units, CO₂ sensors with supplementation/exhaust systems, and adjustable LED lighting.
Modular Cultivation Structure: Utilization of multi-tiered cultivation racks equipped with independent micro-environmental circulation systems for efficient space utilization and zonal management of different fungal species.
Intelligent Control Center: Deployment of an IoT-based central controller that automatically adjusts environmental parameters according to preset growth models, enabling remote monitoring and data traceability.
Challenges
- Precise Temp & Humidity Control in High-Humidity.
- Dynamic & Precise CO₂ Concentration Management.
- Differentiated Environmental Strategies for Various Species.
- Energy Consumption & Operational Costs.
- Pest and Disease Control.
Challenges
Utilize constant temp & humidity units capable of precise dew point control for decoupled temperature and humidity management. Ensure environmental uniformity and avoid local wet/dry spots through rational air supply methods and airflow organization.
Install high-sensitivity CO₂ sensors linked with fresh air and recirculation systems. The intelligent controller automatically switches and adjusts CO₂ setpoints based on different growth stages, achieving “on-demand gas supply”.
Develop a configurable database of growth process curves. Pre-set “growth recipes” for different fungal species in the control system, allowing for one-click activation and switching to support flexible production.
Apply heat recovery technology to reuse waste heat from the refrigeration system for reheating, improving overall energy efficiency. Select high-efficiency inverter compressors and EC fans for significant energy savings at part-load conditions.
Design a positive pressure clean environment to prevent external contamination. Integrate ozone generators or UV sterilization modules to continuously disinfect circulating air and water. Enforce strict batch management and thorough sterilization between cycles to prevent cross-contamination.
