Hydrolyzing is the process of heating products containing Keratin, like Feathers and Hair, under pressure forcing moisture into the cells causing the cells to rupture shortening the protein chains, and making them digestible by some animals.
ALLOY HIGH PROTEIN HIGH DEGESIBILITY (HPHD) SYSTEM
When it comes to Hydrolizing, Alloy recommends the Alloy HPHD (High Protein High Degestibility) system, Here's why:
Higher Protein Due to short cycle times
Higher Digestibility Again due to short cycle times
Less Equipment Imagine being able to hydrolyze the feathers form 250,000 birds per day in one (1) Hydrolyzer!
Less Horsepower Shorter cycles, less equipment and elimination of discharge conveyors result in lower Electrical costs
Enclosed process means significantly less odor in the facility and less load on the Odor Control System
Lower Cost per ton do more with less, Less Energy, Less Manpower, Less Equipment, Less Space
Compact system utilizes less space in your facility
The Alloy HPHD can increase the value of your mean, increase your capacity while reducing you cost per ton all while producing the highest quality meal.
The system begins with Mechanical Dewatering of the feathers and blood, cutting the mass to be processed nearly in half. Next we fill the hydrolyzer and hydrolyze the product and then we use the pressure of hydrolyzation to "blow" the meal to the hydrolyzed product bin, cycle time is 60 minutes; fill, hydrolyze and ready to blow the feathers to the Hydrolyzed Protein Bin awaiting transport to the Dryer.
Give Applications a call and let's walk you through your new system or fill out the applications sheet and we will you contact already familiar with your needs.
There are two categories of Alloy Raw Feather Bins. The style you need will be determined by how your feathers arrive, by truck, off a dewatering screen, or in totes or barrels. In addition, the volume of feathers processed in a day and the capacity of feathers processed will also impact the bin design you need.
Receipt and transport of Feathers and Hair can present a challenge due to their tendency to "ball" creating a large mass of product making transport difficult. The Alloy RAW PRODUCT BIN is designed to simplify your process. The bin utilizes a drag-bar bed and rotating picker, fluffer shafts on the discharge which break-up the "balls" of product and discharge the product to a collecting conveyor in small portions easing transport.
The discharge of the Raw Product Bin is equipped with three (3) rotating picker shafts as seen above to separate the product into smaller portions of the product to ease transport of these products that can otherwise be problematic.
HYDROLYZED PROTEIN BIN
The Alloy hydrolyzed protein works equally well on Feathers or Hair and has several design features to keep you processing:
Reverse repose - avoiding bridging
Dual Drives - providing metering and redundancy
Heavy Inline Reducers - designed to take the load and handle the rigors of 24 hour per day processing
