CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Fishmeal Processing Technology Guide: The whole process of creating high-quality fishmeal for feed

As an important feed additive, fish meal is widely used in livestock and poultry farming. Fish meal is rich in high-quality protein, fat and a variety of essential nutrients, and plays an important role in the growth, development and health of animals. However, how to process fish meal for feed is a key issue.

1. Raw material selection and cleaning

Selecting high-quality fish as raw materials is the first step in processing fish meal for feed. Fresh fish with tender meat and rich pulp should be selected, and fish with corruption and odor should be avoided. Before processing, the raw materials need to be scaled, gutted and cleaned to ensure the cleanliness of the raw materials.

2. Heat treatment

Heat treatment is an indispensable part of the fish meal processing process. It mainly includes processes such as hot boiling, steaming and baking. Through proper heat treatment, bacteria and parasites can be completely killed, the content of harmful substances in the feed can be reduced, and the quality of fish meal can be improved.

3. Crushing and screening

After heat treatment, the fish material needs to be crushed and sieved to obtain the required fish meal particle size. Usually, mechanical grinding is used to grind the fish material into a relatively fine powder, and the powder is classified according to particle size through a screening device to obtain fish meal that meets the requirements for feed.

4. Removal and disinfection

Fish meal for feed may be contaminated by impurities and harmful microorganisms during processing, so impurity removal and disinfection are very important links. Commonly used methods include magnetic separation, wind dust removal and high temperature disinfection to ensure the quality and safety of fish meal.

5. Packaging and storage

The last step is to package and store the fish meal for feed. Generally, moisture-proof, insect-proof and well-sealed packaging materials are used to prevent the fish meal from getting damp and oxidized. At the same time, a suitable storage environment should be selected to keep the fish meal dry and away from light to extend its shelf life.

In short, the processing of fish meal for feed needs to go through multiple links, including raw material selection and cleaning, heat treatment, crushing and screening, impurity removal and disinfection, packaging and storage. The operating technology and equipment selection of each link have a direct impact on the quality of fish meal. Through correct processing technology and good management, high-quality fish meal for feed can be produced to improve the efficiency of livestock and poultry farming.

Thank you for reading this article. I believe this article can help you better understand the processing of fish meal for feed and provide useful guidance for your livestock and poultry farming industry.
