Context: 我公司在XXX年资本性支出的改造中，将XXX公司闲置的4个100立方发酵罐运来改制成100立方清酒罐
I know that "立方"is cube or cubic and "发酵罐" is fermentation jar(?), but I can't figure out the meaning of "4个100立方发酵罐". This comes in the middle of an audit report, and I have no other context.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Of course not. Please notice the hyphen. I don't think it would be misunderstood as "4100". If you feel that way, just "four 100-m3 fermentors" may be safer. But it is certainly unnecessary.
