Applications
Fodder
Global demand for food and feed is expected to increase dramatically in the coming decades as a consequence of the rapid population growth, rising incomes and changing consumption patterns, especially in emerging economies.
The last years have continued to see an increase in the demand for animal protein worldwide, including for livestock, dairy and fish.
To satisfy the growing demand for feed and to support the circular economy, the co-products of the sugar, biofuel, starch, fruit and beer industries will continue to gain importance. In order to preserve these materials drying is an important technological step.
Siempelkamp Energy & Drying Solutions single-pass drum dryers, tube bundle dryers (rotary dryer), tube drum dryers and flash dryers are well suited to dry these co-products.
Sugar beet pulp
In Central Europe sugar is generally produced from sugar beet, and in the tropics from sugar cane. After waste materials are dried and made into pellets they serve as energy-rich animal fodder. To this end,
BÜTTNER supplies flexible drying and energy systems, which together ensure that the dried pulp has a homogeneous moisture distribution.
Fodder from the ethanol industry – dried with Büttner's drying systems
Distillers grains are coproducts from dry grind ethanol plants, and can be produced as distillers dried grains (DDG or DDGS) or distillers wet grains (DWG or DWGS), with or without solubles.
Many cereal grains, such as wheat or barley can be used to produce ethanol, although corn is the predominant grain. Distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) is produced by mixing DWG with Condensed distillers solubles (CDS) and then drying the mixture.
CGF&M (CORN GLUTEN FEED &MEAL)
High quality thanks to Büttner's drying systems
Corn gluten feed (CGF) and corn gluten meal (CGM) are coproducts from corn wet milling plants (starch or ethanol production).
Corn gluten feed (CGF) is comprised primarily of the portion of the kernel that remains after the starch, gluten, and germ have been removed. It is produced by combining the remaining corn bran with steep liquor, and is commonly available in either dry or wet form.
Oilseed meal & cake
Protein feed from oilseeds – dried with Büttner's drying systems
Oilseed meal & cake are the residues remaining after removal of the greater part of the oil from oilseeds.
The most common oilseeds are soya been, rapeseed, sunflower seed and cottonseed. The residues are rich in protein and most are valuable feeds for livestock. There are several techniques for extracting oil from oilseeds.
Residues from fruits efficiently dried
Pomace is the solid remains of grapes, olives or other fruit after pressing for juice or oil. Pomace is often dried and used as fodder or to extract pectin (apple pomace, citrus pulp).
Grape pomace is the major by-product of wine and grape juice production. It includes the skins and the pulp, usually the seeds and, in some cases, the stems.
Apple pomace is the solid residue that remains after milling and pressing of apples for cider, apple juice or puree production.
Brewing waste efficiently dried
Brewer's spent grain (BSG) or draff is a byproduct of the brewing industry that makes up 85 percent of brewing waste.
BSG is obtained as residue after wort production in the brewing process. The product is initially wet, with a short shelf-life, but can be dried to preserve it.
