How Many Fish Feed Pellets to Feed Your Fish

Pellet making machine can make fish feed pellets. The number of fish feed pellets that an individual fish can catch is related to its swimming activity, which is, in turn, partially temperature-dependent. Zhengzhou Fusmar is a professional fish feed extruder manufacturer.

Rainbow trout could catch larger numbers of pellets in a single feed portion as temperatures increased from 5 to 15°C under laboratory conditions; this change is likely mediated by changes in the fish’s activity at different temperatures. The feeding rate of brown trout increased rapidly between 3.8 and 6.8°C, remaining relatively stable between 6.8 and 19.3°C, before decreasing at temperatures above 19.3°C. Changes in the feeding and swimming activity of salmonids at different temperatures have been presented by others with the greatest change in activity occurring between 5 and 10°C. In aquaculture, the feed delivery rate should therefore be taken into account when calculating a feeding regime.

fish feed pellets

The size of feed pellets and the rate at which they are delivered may affect the amount of feed an individual fish can ingest over a period of time. Pellets of sub-optimal size or pellets that are delivered at a high rate may cause wastage, as fish may be unable to catch large numbers of pellets before they sink through the net pen. Salmon farmers use many different sizes of feed pellets during the grow-out period, and each time the size is changed, new calculations for the optimal number of pellets per fish and delivery must be done. It would therefore save both time and money if fewer sizes of pelleted feed can be used for larger parts of the grow-out period.

At some extreme, pellet size will obviously have an effect on fish performance, and there are indications of this effect presented here. For example, a pellet that is larger than the gap width of the fish or is so large that handling time becomes a limiting factor in the fish’s ability to ingest enough pellets to maintain good growth will clearly have adverse effects. Adult salmon showed a more immediate response to larger pellets but that these were more likely to be rejected than pellets of a shorter length.  

Pellets slightly smaller than the ‘‘normal’’ commercial size were eaten at the fastest rate, thereby indicating that the salmon are perhaps adjusting their feeding behavior to compensate for a smaller feed pellet size. For Arctic charr reared under hatchery conditions, the optimal pellet size has been suggested to be around 2% of the fish’s length. Others have suggested that for a range of fish species, the optimal feed size appears to be 25–50% of the mouth width. It appears that fish can adjust to reasonable deviations from the optimal pellet size with no significant negative effects on growth.

Pellet Making Machine Commercial Poultry Farming

Poultry is the class of domesticated fowl farmed for their meat, eggs, or feathers. These most typically are members of the orders Galliformes (such as chickens and turkeys), and Anseriformes (waterfowl such as ducks and geese). The word poultry is often used to refer to the meat. In a more general sense, it may refer to the meat of other animal, such as pigeons or doves, or game animal like quails or pheasants. Pellet making machine can make poultry feed pellets, Zhengzhou Fusmar Machinery is a professional feed pellet machine manufacture.

Chicken Farming

Chicken is by far the most popular poultry species utilised by farmers for both meat and egg production. Chicken meat consumption has replaced beef as the primary meat consumed and egg consumption is steady and expected to increase. The term broiler or meat chicken is used by the industry to describe a chicken grown for meat, while the term layer is used for chickens grown and maintained for egg production. Chickens are also affectionately referred to as chooks. There are many different chicken production systems and markets for both chicken meat and eggs.

chicken feed pellets

For the broiler industry they include:

  1. Intensive litter furbished sheds
  2. Free-range
  3. Certified organic

For the layer industry they include:

  1. Cage
  2. Barn
  3. Free-range
  4. Certified organic

On top of varied production systems, there are also different diets that appeal to different markets including:

  1. Corn fed chicken meat
  2. Vegetarian eggs
  3. Enriched eggs (e.g. Omega-3)
  4. Industry definitions
chicken farming

Industry Definitions

Broiler is an American word used to describe a meat bird such as chicken, turkey, or duck.

  1. Chick refers to a baby bird.
  2. Chicken can be used when referring to young birds, the entire fowl species or the meat that is eaten by humans.
  3. Chook is Australian & New Zealand slang for a hen, or a cooked chicken.
  4. Cockerel, cock or rooster are names given to a male chicken.
  5. Hen is the name given to the adult female chicken.
  6. Pullet is the term used for the immature female layer.
  7. A spent hen is one that has finished its productive life.

Backyard Production

Many farmers and some suburban householders still like to keep their own poultry for egg and meat production. Most buy commercial crossbred hens at the point of lay and keep them in semi-intensive conditions in the yard. Some use small colony cages or even use a few layer cages in a protected spot. Others buy day-old chicks and rear their own birds.

Animal Nutrient Requirements

Poultry diets must be formulated to provide all of the animal’s nutrient requirements if optimum growth and production are to be achieved. Pellet making machine can make poultry feed pellets, Zhengzhou Fusmar machinery is a professional feed pellet machine manufacturer.

pellet making machine

Animal Nutrient Requirements

There are six classes of nutrients:

  1. Carbohydrates, the major source of energy for poultry. Most of the carbohydrate in poultry diets is provided by cereal grains.
  2. Fats, provide energy and essential fatty acids that are required for some bodily processes.
  3. Proteins, required for the synthesis of body tissue (particularly muscle), physiological molecules (such as enzymes and hormones), feathers and for egg production. Proteins also provide a small amount of energy.
  4. Vitamins, organic chemicals (chemicals containing carbon) which help control body processes and are required in small amounts for normal health and growth.
  5. Minerals, inorganic chemicals (chemicals not containing carbon) which help control body processes and are required for normal health and growth.
  6. Water.

Factors Affecting The Nutrient Requirements Of Poultry

The nutrient requirements of poultry are affected by a large number of factors, including:

  1. Genetics (the species, breed or strain of poultry) – Different species, breeds or strains of poultry have different average body sizes, growth rates, and production levels and will absorb utilize nutrients from feed pellets with different levels of efficiency. Therefore, they will require animal feed pellets with different nutrient compositions. The genetics of commercial poultry is constantly changing, and as a result, so are their nutrient requirements. Consequently, breeders of commercial poultry provide information on the specific nutrient requirements for the poultry they sell. 
  2. Age – nutrient requirements are related to both body weight and the stage of maturity in poultry.
  3. Sex – prior to sexual maturity, the sexes have only small differences in their nutrient requirements and males and females can usually be fed the same compromise diet to achieve acceptable growth rates. Differences in nutrient requirements are larger following the onset of sexual maturity and significantly different diet formulations are then required for each sex.
  4. Reproductive state – the level of egg production in hens and sexual activity in males will affect nutrient requirements.
  5. Ambient temperature – poultry have increased energy requirements to maintain normal body temperature in cold ambient temperatures and the opposite in hot ambient temperatures. Food digestion processes produce body heat, the amount of which will vary according to the nutrient composition of the diet. This is called the heat increment of the diet. In cold temperatures, it may be desirable to formulate a diet with a higher heat increment and the opposite in hot temperatures.
  6. Housing system – the type of housing system will influence the level of activity of the birds and therefore their energy requirements.
  7. Health status – poultry experiencing a disease challenge may benefit from an increase in the intake of some nutrients, most commonly vitamins.
  8. Production aims – the optimal nutrient composition of the diet will vary according to production aims, such as optimizing weight gain or carcass composition, egg numbers, or egg size. Poultry that is raised for breeding purposes may need to have their energy intake restricted to ensure that they do not become obese.

Things You Need To Know Feed Ingredients

Feed ingredients are broadly classified into cereal grains, protein meals, fats and oils, minerals, feed additives, and miscellaneous raw materials, such as roots and tubers. These will be discussed in separate headings below. More information on measuring the nutrient composition of ingredients and the process of formulating poultry feeds is available in the section on feed formulation. 

Zhengzhou Fusmar Machinery is a professional animal feed machine manufacturer.

Cereal Grains

The term “cereal gains” here includes cereal grains, cereal by-products, and distillers dried grains with solubles. Cereal grains are used mainly to satisfy the energy requirement of poultry. The dominant feed grain is corn, although different grains are used in various countries and regions of the world. Of course, in reality, a poultry feed pellet manufacturer will use any grain in a poultry diet if it is available at a reasonable price. Although the amounts and types of cereal grains included in poultry diets will depend largely on their current costs relative to their nutritive values, care must be taken to avoid making large changes to the cereal component of diets. As sudden changes can cause digestive upsets that may reduce productivity and predispose the poultry to disease.

Protein Meals

Protein is provided from both vegetable and animal sources, such as oilseed meals, legumes and abattoir and fish processing by-products.

Vegetable protein sources

Vegetable protein sources usually come as meal or cake, the by-product of oilseed crops. The main oilseed crops include soybean, rapeseed/canola, sunflower, palm kernel, copra, linseed peanut, and sesame seed. After the oil is extracted, the remaining residue is used as feed ingredient. Oilseed meals make up 20-30% of a poultry diet. Inclusion levels do vary among formulations for different species and for the same species in different regions.

animal feed machine

Animal protein sources

The main animal protein sources used in poultry diets are meat meal, meat and bone meal, fish meal, poultry by-product meal, blood meal, and feather meal. Although the production of animal protein for human consumption has been under continual pressure and marred by much controversy, the world-wide and domestic consumption of animal protein continues to grow and much of the future supply of meat protein will come from poultry. With increased animal protein production there will be increased demand for feed and, in particular, a demand for ingredients high in protein and energy.

Fats and Oils

Fats and oils, collectedly termed lipids, are regularly used in poultry feed pellets to satisfy the energy need of the animal as lipids have more than twice compared with carbohydrates or proteins per kg weight. Lipids are also an important carrier for fat-soluble vitamins as wells for the provision of essential fatty acid, linoleic acid, in the diet. A variety of fats and oils are used in feed, including lipids of animal origins and lipids of vegetable origin.

In practical feed formulation, the level of lipids rarely exceeds 4% in compound feed. However, even a small decrease in digestibility can cost dearly in terms of dietary energy. Like any other nutrient, a varying proportion of lipids are undigested depending on their sources and the species and age of the animal to which they are fed.

animal feed pellets

Minerals and Vitamins

Minerals are vital for normal growth and development in poultry, such as bone formation and body processes such as enzyme activation. Some minerals such as calcium and phosphorus are required in large quantities. For example, laying hens require between 3.5-4% calcium, 0.3-0.4% available phosphorus, and 0.2% sodium in their diets for egg production. Other minerals, such as copper, iron, manganese, zinc, selenium, cobalt, iodine, and molybdenum, are required in milligram quantities but deficiency of these minerals will lead to serious health problems in mild cases and death in severe cases.

Similarly, vitamins are essential for the body systems of poultry. Both fat-soluble (A, D, E, K) and water-soluble (biotin, choline, folic acid, niacin, riboflavin, thiamine, pyridoxine, pantothenic acid) are needed in the diet to maintain proper health and wellbeing of poultry.

Some vitamins and minerals are provided by most ingredients but the requirements for vitamins and minerals are generally met through premixes added to the diet. Diets may also contain additives for specific purposes. These are discussed in more detail in the section on feed additives.

Extrusion Technology and Feed Production Process Control

Fish feed pellet machine, the main equipment is “screw extruder”. The main kinds are fish feed extruder, soybean/corn extruder, and feather extruder. Fish feed extruder is the common machine in the fish feed production line, which includes a single screw extruder and twin screw extruder.   

Extrusion Process And Main Kinds Applied In Feed Production

The material is fed into the fish feed extruder and moves in the form of an axial flow under the screw power. At the same time, due to the mechanical friction between the screw and the material, the material and the barrel, and the material particles, the material is strongly squeezed, stirred, and sheared. As a result, the material is further refined and homogenized. With the gradual increase of pressure, the temperature rises accordingly. Under the condition of high temperature, high pressure, and high shear, the physical properties of the material have changed as follows:

  1. From powder to paste.

2. Gelatinization of starch.

3. Protein denaturation.

4. Partial degradation and refinement of fiber.

5. Pathogenic bacteria were killed.

6. Health indicators are improved.

7. Toxic components were inactivated.

fish feed extruder

When the paste material extruded from the die hole, under the influence of strong pressure difference, the material is expanded, dehydrated, and cooled. The final product is of loose and porous structure, crisp, good palatability, and flavor. 

Extrusion Process And Characteristics Of Extruded Products

  1. Biochemical Process

The process of hydrothermal treatment is accompanied by the biochemical change process of the material. Some materials, such as oilseeds and their cakes, contain a variety of anti-nutrients and anti-feeding ingredients. Under certain moisture and certain temperature conditions, these active substances gradually lose their activity, weakening the destruction of digestive enzymes inside the digestive system of animals, which improves absorption rate and reduces excretion. This not only improves the nutrition value of feed, but also reduces waste and environmental pollution. From the view of the biochemical process, the extruder is a “biochemical reactor.”

2. High-temperature and short-term germicidal detoxification process 

The highest temperature in the puffing process can reach(130-160) °C, while the material in the high-temperature segment is very short, about 5-10 seconds. High temperature can not only kill pathogens and health indications, but also can inactive a variety of harmful factors and enzymes, improving the feed quality. 

3. Better chemical stability and longer quality guarantee period

High temperatures cause various microorganisms and parasitic ovum to be killed and various enzymes( such ad oxidase, lipase, etc.) are inactivated. That excludes a wide range of factors that contribute to the deterioration of the material.

4. Wide range of process adaptability

The extrusion process can not only improve the feeding quality of a variety of common feed materials, but also can process a large number of unconventional materials into high-quality feed materials, which include wild plants, agricultural by-product, slaughter waste and of livestock and poultry, etc. Fish feed extruder can produce a variety of different specifications and quality of livestock poultry materials, aquatic feed, pets feed, etc. At the same time, the extrusion process is also the most effective technique for the detoxification, preservation, and processing of grain cakes and deep processing of grain.

5. High-grade product features

Extrusion products are loose and crunchy after being cooled, composite products produced by various components, and Maillard reaction due to high temperature. All these factors constitute better palatability over the original mixture and  have a special flavor. These characteristics induce animal feed to intake, thus increasing feed intake and feed effectiveness. This is completely different from the addition of phagostimulant to the mixture, which often has negative effects. 

6. It can produce special feed with different shape

According to the user’s requirements, changing the model design can produce different shapes of large particles, large blocks or bar-like materials, such as prawn feed, pet feed, rare animal feed, etc. This is what the ring die pellet machine can’t do.

7. Higher digestion rate

For those suckling pigs whose digestive system is not well developed, the starch in the weaning material requires the gelatinization degree of more than 90%. And the aquatic animals also requires the gelatinization degree of the feed should also be higher because their absorption capacity of the original degree is poor. Extruder machine can realize it well.

Therefore, it is better to use extruder than ring die pellet machine to produce aquatic products because due to the temperature restriction, the gelatinization degree of starch processed by ring die pellet machine can not be high, which is generally no more than 50%.

Gelatinization not only improves digestibility, but also improves granulation and shaping because dextrins are good binders. The gelatinized starch molecules crosslink each other to form a network-like spatial structure, lose some moisture after being instantaneously expanded, and become a skeleton of the expanded product after cooling, so that the product maintains a certain shape.   

How To Improve Efficiency Of Charcoal Briquette Production Line

Charcoal making machine is accompanied by the widespread use of briquette and people increasingly demanding the environment, briquette press machine with briquette has been widely developed.

Briquette press machine is widely used, can be a variety of pulverized coal (coking coal, lignite, coal, anthracite, etc.), slag, dry powder, slag, and other powder material fully pressed. Briquette press machine models, power is also different, in the selection according to the customer’s output to decide.

How To Improve Efficiency Of Charcoal Briquette Production Line

  1. The core of the charcoal briquette production line is the formation of pressure, so choose a high-quality briquette press machine is very important. Of course, for the briquette press machine, the pressure roller is its heart, so the forming roller material also has a certain impact on the finished product.  
  2. Briquette press machine supporting the selection of equipment is also very important, the so-called only for their own is the best, according to the briquettes press machine model to choose the right crusher machine, mixer machine, carbonization furnace, and so on. If the model is not appropriate will affect efficiency. The proportion of the raw material in the production of briquette is very important. The uniformity of the mixing is also very important, which directly affects the briquettes strength of the charcoal briquette machine. Therefore, it is also very important to choose the appropriate mixer machine and other auxiliary machinery.
  3. In-depth understanding materials of briquette machine and ancillary equipment performance, to have skilled operation skills, to ensure the coal briquette machine automated production.  
  4.  For the briquette press machine, only follow the machine production law, reasonable operation, and maintenance in order to achieve its best value.

Knowledge Of Buying Rabbit Feed Pellet Mill

With the progress and development of the breeding industry, no matter for small and medium-sized farms or large farms, feed pellet is the most important part of the farms. While many farmers purchase full-price feed, they also wonder whether their farms can save costs to make feed themselves, so feed processing equipment has gradually become popular.

ring die feed pellet machine

Now there are many people feed animals like pig, sheep, chicken, rabbit, these animals feed are in big demand. Some people buy feed pellets from a pellet production factory, but some choose to make their own feed pellets for their animals.

rabbit feed pellets

Then how much do you know when you decide to buy a rabbit feed pellet mill? many people who have little experience in making feed pellets, different people have different questions about pellet mill for making feed pellets, customer once consulted us such questions which are maybe you will have:

  1. Are their any advantage the diesel or electrical one have except that the diesel one is lighter? advantage between diesel and electricity, is that easy and convient to move. Besides, it’s good for the area lacking of electricity or the area of high electricity price.
  2. Are the pellets produced small? I mentioned it is primarily for rabbits, do you have some clients making rabbit pellets using the machine. The pellets produces can be 2.5–8mm, choosing according to your requirement.
  3. Are their some parts that wear out frequently which I would need to order together with the machine. The mainly parts are the roller and die, they are can be about 6-8 months on the condition of continuously working.
animal feed pellets

Generally speaking, the feed pellet machine divided into two categories, one is ring die feed pellet machine, the other is flat die feed pellet machine. Large-scale poultry farms choose to use Industry Animal Feed Pellet Plant or powder machinery equipment, while small and medium-sized farms will also choose to use 500 KG Animal Feed Pellet Plant or a single feed pellet machine. Among the many feed machines, the feed pellet machine has a higher utilization rate.

From the perspective of the majority of farmers, the animal feed mill not only helps the farmers save the cost of breeding but also increases the economic profit.

How To Choose Floating Fish Feed Machine And Its Auxiliary Equipment

With the rapid development of aquaculture, its economic benefit has become considerable. Therefore, various aquatic feeds, in particular floating fish feed pellet, rise in response to this trend. Because aquatic animals like fish and shrimp have small intestines and stomach with bad digest absorption ability, the manufacturing process of aquaculture feed has much higher requirement than that of livestock feed. Which means it’s very important to choose suitable fish feed machine to produce aqua feed.

fish feed production line

Before choosing fish feed production line machinery, it’s very necessary to learn about the features of aquatic feed:

  1. Small particle size. Due to short intestines stomach and other physiological properties of aquatic animal, in order to accelerate digest and absorption, the fineness of pulverization of aquatic feed should be smaller than poultry feed. For example, when producing fish feed or prawn feed, the raw material flour size should reach 60-120 meshes which could make sure to make good quality of fish feed pellets. 

With this reason, the feed hammer mill or feed grinding machine would be very important to make sure producing very fine flour material.

feed crusher machine

Recommend: Fusmar grinding machine. It has two kinds: small grinder machine and fine grinding machine. The final fineness is respectively 60-80 mesh and 80-200 mesh.

2. High protein content and low carbohydrate. The protein content of livestock feed is often less than 20%, while that of aquaculture feed is always 30%-40 or more. Especially for the small fish feed which is growing very fast, and some aqua feed protein content is up to 65%-70%.

With this, we should choose good feed formula, and using feed mixer machine to mix different materials together. It is one of the key equipment, of which the performance directly affects the production efficiency and product quality of feed plants.

feed mixer machine

Recommend: Economic Fish Feed Mixer Machine. It is widely used in the evenly mixing of fish feed raw material to ensure quality pellet making.

3. Pellet feed structure is compact. With higher cohesiveness and water resistance. For instance, aqua feed requires the water stability of pellet up to 2-10 hours or more.

Since fish feed production requires higher degree of gelatinization and water stability, the selection of fish feed extruder is very important. Through prolonging materials tempering time and starch gelatinization under high temperature can strengthen adhesive property of feed pellets, kill Salmonella and other various harmful bacteria. Which not only promotes the water stability of fish feed but also improves the palatability and digestibility of feed.

Recommend: Floating fish feed machine. It has two kinds: wet type and dry type. As for which one to choose, it is according to your need and your requirements.

Animal Feed Machine Horse Feed Pellets Analysis and Made

In order to make horse live a long, healthy life, and perform best, two most significant nutritional factors to horse are water and forage. Some horses can maintain healthy weight on forage without additional grain or feed, while for some horses especially those in rigorous training programs would need more than that.  

Zhengzhou Fusmar Machinery is a professional animal feed machine manufacturer.

Types Of Horse Feed

  1. Grains.

Grains here mean cereal plants grown, harvested and used as horse feed. Grains can provide nutrients and carbohydrates for horse. For horses, the most common grain is oats which are also easy to digest. Apart from oats, corn, and barley are also popular horse feeds to offer energy and weight. Some people also mix sorghum and wheat with other grains to use as horse feeds.  

Disadvantages of Grains:

As to using grains to feed horse, there is one thing to pay attention, kernels and hulls of sorghum and wheat are too hard for horse to eat and digest, so they should be processed before feeding.

2. Sweet feeds.

It is also called as textured feed. Sweet feed mainly contains grains (such as oats, barley, corn) and protein, minerals, vitamins with high levels of molasses. Grains contained is wholly or coarsely crushed and plainly visible in the mix. Sweet feed is also chewier than other forms of feed, so with more saliva production it can encourage better horse digestion. With high molasses content, sweet feeds become an ideal choice for those who want to encourage horses to eat more and have an extra boost of energy.

Drawbacks of Sweet Feeds:

Even though sweet feed is a go-to feed, its high sugar content makes it quite harmful just like sugar for people. People don’t let children to have sugary candy for dinner, so is the same for horses. Too much sugar is bad for their teeth and not good for their bodies.

  • 3. Pelleted feeds.

Pelleted feeds are made by grinding up grains, proteins, vitamins and minerals, then using heat and moisture to form them into pellets. Compared with unprocessed grains, pelleted feeds are uniform and more easy to digest especially for foals, weanlings, and older horses.

horse feed pellets

Why Using Pelleted Feeds

  1. Pelleted feeds are made of feed that ground into particles formerly, so pellets are much more digestible than whole grains or hay. Which is especially a better choice for very young or old horses, or for horses that have mouth or tooth problem. For those elderly horses that have little or no teeth, pellets can also be soaked into a mush.
  2. Horses can’t sort out feeds in pelleted type. If you have horses that always sort out ingredients to eat and leave the rest, it probably doesn’t get the nutrition that is designed to deliver. However with pelleted feed, horses have no choice but to eat the whole pellets. In this way, horses can get balanced nutrition that owners want to deliver.
  3. Without molasses content, pelleted feeds are easier to store in special weather. Pellets can also remain fresh for a long time because some special ingredients are added to preserve its storage life.  
  4. Pellets have high density and small size, so they are easy to transport and move around.
  5. Pelleted feeds are also economical, because making horse feeds pellets cost much less than buying feed pellets. Moreover pellets provide more energy with less bulk and readily available.

How To Make Horse Feed Pellets

First, raw ingredients have to ground into powder, so one horse feed hammer mill is a must for grinding up raw materials. Then ground powder has to be separated by a sieve to make sure powder meet requirements.

Second, feed mixer is needed to mix processed raw materials. During these processes, vitamins, protein, minerals are added to raise the nutritional value of feed pellets.

Third, mixed materials are fed into a feed pellet mill to be extruded into pellets under high temperature and high pressure.

As the pellets to be extruded has high temperature, so pellets cooler is a necessary to cool the heat. Next pellets package machine can be adopted if you have bagging requirements.

Tips To Pay Attention

Wheat and rice barn are not suitable to be regarded as major part of your horse’s diet because they may cause mineral imbalances. Besides, such things like tomatoes, acorns, cauliflowers, kale, cabbage are also can not fed to your horses.

Peanut Shell Charcoal Making Machine

The environmentally-friendly continuous peanut shell charcoal making machine is mainly used for carbonization of biomass materials such as sawdust, rice husk, hemp straw, straw, nutshell, and coconut shell. The charcoal briquette production line equipment utilizes the principle of gasification carbonization and adopts advanced smoke-free environmental carbonization.

Peanut Shell Carbonization Machine

The continuous peanut shell carbonization machine has three significant advantages: one is the large volume of the main machine, the high carbonization rate, and the strong production capacity. The second is the smoke-free environment, which can separate and filter the smoke generated during the carbonization process. The contained wood vinegar, wood tar, water vapor, and other swimming ions are separated. And at the same time, the generated flue gas is harmlessly treated. Thirdly, the cost is low, and the utility is strong, which satisfies the initial investment of the entrepreneurs. Good objective requirements.  

Peanut Shell Carbonization Machine Works

The peanut shell carbonization machine adopts the dry distillation carbonization method, fully utilizes the flammable gas such as carbon monoxide, methane, and hydrogen generated in the carbonization process, separates the wood tar and the wood acid liquid through the flue gas purification system to obtain the pure combustible gas. And then passes the self-matching. The wind burner is fully burned and heated to a high-temperature carbonization pipe (the temperature is generally controlled at about 600℃). There are four layers of pipes inside the carbonization machine from top to bottom, the first and second layers are preheated drying pipes, the third layer is low-temperature carbonization pipes, and the fourth layer is high-temperature carbonization pipes. The first and second floors are provided with independent exhaust pipes to discharge water vapor. The pipes use the residual heat in the furnace to dry the materials, and the water vapor is discharged from the exhaust pipes. The third and fourth floors are also provided with independent combustible gas recovery pipes. The carbonization pipes carbonize the materials at a high temperature to decompose flammable gases such as carbon monoxide, methane, and hydrogen, then heat the pipes through the recovery pipes. The flue gas purification system and the burner combustion. The effect of reciprocating cycle heating carbonization is achieved. The initial carbonization ignition gas source is supplied by a biomass gasifier. 

Matters needing attention:

When the carbonization machine is first ignited and turned off in the middle, it is necessary to open the side to close the fire door to prevent too much flammable gas in the furnace, which will cause deflagration when igniting, which will cause harm to personal safety.

The Finished Carbonized Peanut Shell Carbon

The finished carbonized peanut shell carbon has a wide range of applications and can be used as a fertilizer slow release agent, a feed additive, a smelting flux, a food additive, a pharmaceutical additive, and the like. The raw materials can be first granulated and then carbonized directly for the adsorbent, preservative, and deodorant. It can also be used as a fuel for high-end barbecues and field workers.

Carbon powder made from crop straw and forestry residues. Today, charcoal powder is used in many fields such as industry, agriculture, medicine, and household. Charcoal powder can be used in metallurgy, pharmaceutical, and soil improvement. It can be used in the home to adsorb formaldehyde to remove harmful gases, dehumidification, and deodorization.
