Apparatus for producing fermented soybean meal

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus for producing fermented soybean meal, which produces fermented soybean meal for monogastric animals and ruminant selectively or together. An apparatus for producing fermented soybean meal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes: a solid-liquid separating part, which mixes raw material soybean meal and an extraction solvent and extracts the soybean meal, and separately produces a remaining soybean meal and a soybean meal extract; a lactic acid bacteria culturing part, which produces the lactic acid bacteria by putting inoculum into the soybean meal extract, and supplies the lactic acid bacteria to the solid-liquid separating part; a solid substrate fermenting part, which is selectively supplied with and mixes at least two of the remaining soybean meal supplied from the solid-liquid separating part, the raw material soybean meal supplied through bypass, and lactic acid bacteria supplied from the lactic acid bacteria culturing part to produce a mixed material, and solid-substrate ferments the mixed material to produce primary solid substrate fermented soybean meal; and a drier, which dries the primary solid substrate fermented soybean meal supplied from the solid substrate fermenting part to produce secondary solid substrate fermented soybean meal.

Artificial bully stick of edible pet chew

An edible pet chew includes a member of Bully Stick Analogue formed from a composition material may be with at least 20% plant ingredient imitating existing traditional bully stick products, serving as an alternative to it. The imitation may include the structure, and/or appearance, and/or shape, and/or size, and/or color, and/or texture, and/or flavor, and/or durability, and/or palatability of traditional bully stick. It is an extruded stick processed by an extruder or a stick formed by injection molding machine.

Method and system for producing a protein and fiber feed product from a whole stillage byproduct produced in a corn dry milling process
12213497 · 2025-02-04 · ·

A method and system are disclosed for producing a protein and fiber feed product from a whole stillage byproduct produced in a corn dry milling process for making alcohol, such as ethanol, and/or other biofuels/biochemicals. In one embodiment, the method includes separating the whole stillage byproduct into an insoluble solids portion and a centrate (solubles) portion. Thereafter, a fine fiber and protein portion may be separated from the centrate (solubles) portion. The fine fiber and protein portion may be dewatered to provide a protein and fiber feed product. In one example, the protein and fiber feed product can include insoluble solids, such as wet or dry distiller's grains with or without solubles. The resulting protein and fiber feed product may be sold and/or used as rumen feed, swine feed, chicken feed, aqua feed, food uses, or have other uses, including pharmaceutical and/or chemical usage, for example.

FISH MEAL AND ITS PRODUCTION AND USE
20250057197 · 2025-02-20 ·

The invention relates to fish meal comprising at least 74% by weight of protein, up to 10% by weight of ash and up to 1.5% by weight of phosphorous. The invention further relates to use of the fish meal as a feed for fish, shrimp, cats, dogs, pigs and poultry. The invention further relates to feed for fish and shrimp comprising the fish meal. The invention further relates to a process for producing a fish meal which comprises: (lxxxvi) providing a fish composition comprising raw fish meat and bones, and optionally skin and/or fins; (lxxxvii) subjecting the fish composition to mechanical separation which comprises squeezing soft components of the fish composition through perforations of a perforated drum to obtain a fraction enriched in raw fish meat, whereas a fraction enriched in fish bones, and optionally skin and/or fins remain outside of the drum, (lxxxviii) subjecting the fraction enriched in raw fish meat to cooking, then drying, and optionally grinding.

The invention further relates to a process of treating a raw fish composition to increase its content of protein, reduce its content of ash and/or reduce its content of phosphorous, wherein the process comprises: (lxxxvi) providing a fish composition comprising raw fish meat and bones, and optionally skin and/or fins; and (lxxxvii) subjecting the fish composition to mechanical separation to separate the fish bones, and optionally skin and/or fins from the raw fish meat which comprises squeezing soft components of the fish composition through perforations of a perforated drum to obtain a fraction enriched in raw fish meat.
