Meat, Bone & Feather Meal

Rendered Meat, Bone & Feather Meal Line

Turnkey animal rendering & fat extraction line for slaughterhouse offal, meat/bone waste and poultry feathers: batch thermal hydrolysis, twin-screw pressing, indirect steam drying, tallow centrifuge and odor scrubbing.

Solution Overview

The Rendered Meat, Bone & Feather Meal Line is a high-yield processing platform engineered for animal byproduct rendering, poultry feather hydrolysis, and industrial tallow/fat extraction.

Featuring interactive process flow and material balance diagrams, this turnkey line converts slaughterhouse offal, carcass waste, and broiler feathers into digestible animal protein meal (crude protein 55{a8bbb5c2a8393dea97cbe9f4154381accecdf9ffb977569b7955fc6e6b23cd1a}–75{a8bbb5c2a8393dea97cbe9f4154381accecdf9ffb977569b7955fc6e6b23cd1a}) and purified animal fats.

Core Process Modules

  • Offal & Feather Pre-crushing: Heavy-duty pre-breaker reducing raw animal materials to ≤30mm particles for uniform thermal digestion.
  • Batch Hydrolysis & Steam Cooking: High-pressure thermal hydrolyzer breaking down feather keratin and sterilizing animal pathogens.
  • Twin-Screw Fat Pressing: Heavy conical screw press separating liquid fat & stickwater from presscake.
  • Indirect Steam Disc Drying: Low-temperature disc dryer preserving amino acid availability while reducing meal moisture to ≤8{a8bbb5c2a8393dea97cbe9f4154381accecdf9ffb977569b7955fc6e6b23cd1a}.
  • Air Cooling & Bone Crushing: Integrated cooling and high-mesh milling for uniform 60–100 mesh meal fineness.
  • 3-Phase Fat Centrifuge: High-speed decanter centrifuge producing feed-grade purified tallow (FFA ≤2{a8bbb5c2a8393dea97cbe9f4154381accecdf9ffb977569b7955fc6e6b23cd1a}).
  • Wet Scrubber Odor Abatement: Closed vapor collection system routed to wet scrubbing towers with 99.5{a8bbb5c2a8393dea97cbe9f4154381accecdf9ffb977569b7955fc6e6b23cd1a} odor control efficiency.
