10T/H aqua feed mill Production process design

  1. Raw material receiving and cleaning
    Since the raw materials purchased by the aqua feed mill plant contain a certain amount of impurities, the feeding port is equipped with a screen that can be used as the first impurity removal equipment to remove impurities such as sack lines.
    Each feeding port is equipped with a square pulse dust collector; the powdered meal is manually unpacked in the aquatic feed production workshop and put into the feeding port. After being cleaned and ironed by the scraper and elevator, the meal enters the waiting area. In the crushing bin, powder and auxiliary materials enter the batching bin.
  2. First crushing
    Due to the large particle size of raw materials such as golden soybeans and soybean meal, they need to be crushed to meet production requirements so that they can be turned into powdery materials. The crushed raw materials are lifted to the batching bin for temporary storage through an automatic elevator.
  3. Mix ingredients at first time
    The batching technology used in this project is a multi-bin batching scale, which is a type of automatic batching. The crushed raw and auxiliary materials are sent to different batching bins by the distributor.
  4. Ultrafine grinding
    In order to increase the taste of the feed and make the feed more suitable for fish consumption. After the various raw materials are mixed, they will enter the sealed ultra-fine grinder for secondary crushing.
  5. Secondary mixing
    According to the formula requirements, various raw materials participating in the ingredients are measured and entered into the mixer in sequence, and various core materials are added during the mixing process. The mixing cycle is 6 minutes.
  6. Granulation——for poultry and livestock feed
    During the granulation process, steam needs to be used to heat and sterilize the material, which can adjust the moisture content of the material, improve the maturation and gelatinization of the material, and control pressure and other related parameters through a pressure reducing valve.
    During the granulation process, the temperature of the granules leaving the poultry feed pellet machine is as high as about 85°C, and the moisture content is about 17%.
  7. Extruded——for extruded fish feed
    After the mixed material enters the expansion chamber of floating fish feed extruder machine, the material is squeezed, rubbed, sheared, etc. between the screw sleeves, and its internal pressure continues to increase, up to 4Mpa. In addition, the steam heating temperature continues to rise, up to 140 ℃.
    Within 3-7 seconds, the temperature and pressure increase sharply, and the organizational structure of the material changes, further gelatinizing the starch, denaturing the protein, destroying the crude fiber, and killing harmful bacteria.
    When high-temperature and high-pressure materials come out of the discharge port, their pressure is suddenly released in an instant, and the moisture partially flashes.
  8. Drying
    Because during the puffing and tempering process, high-temperature and high-humidity steam is introduced, and a large amount of heat is generated by extrusion of the material, the moisture content of the puffed aquatic feed is high.
    If it is directly stored, it will also cause sticking and mildew. Therefore, Materials are dried through steam heat exchange.
  9. Cooling
    The temperature of the material coming out of the drying equipment is as high as 70°C-85°C. Under such conditions, the pellet feed is easy to deform and break.
    This process uses counter-current ventilation and cooling to reduce the feed temperature to less than 8°C higher than room temperature.
  10. Packaging and storage
    The cooled aqua feed passes through a quantitative packaging scale and is packed into storage.

Note:

Public works

Water supply

The water used in this 10t/h aquatic feed mill in the Philippines project is mainly water for cleaning the expansion chamber and domestic water for employees. The water source is water from a self-prepared well.

Among them, the cleaning water of the expansion chamber is 30t/a, and the new increase of domestic water is 22.5t/a.

High Output And Low Energ Consumption

The drainage of this 10t/h aquatic floating fish feed production line in the Philippines project adopts the rainwater and sewage diversion system.

Rainwater enters the village road rainwater drainage channel adjacent to the southeast side of the 10t/h aquatic fish feed processing line in the Philippines project through the rainwater inlet on the south side of the project for discharge.

After the expansion chamber cleaning wastewater enters the integrated biochemical treatment facility for treatment, it is used to fertilize surrounding forest land and is not discharged. Domestic sewage is treated by septic tanks + integrated biochemical treatment facilities and used to fertilize surrounding forest land without being discharged.

Power supply

The power supply of this 10t/h aquatic floating fish feed mill in the Philippines project is connected to the municipal power grid.

10 t/h aquatic feed mill layout design

The factory area is arranged from south to north with boiler room, finished product warehouse, production workshop, raw material warehouse/complex building/janitor, and canteen.

The 10t/h aquatic feed mill in the Philippines project's production materials flow from the raw material warehouse to the production workshop from north to south. After production is completed, they enter the product warehouse for storage.

The raw material warehouse, production workshop, and finished product warehouse of this project are closely arranged, which is conducive to the flow of materials and meets production requirements.

The solid waste of the 10t/h aquatic fish feed mill plant in the Philippines project is temporarily stored in the west part of the raw material warehouse. There is no separate storage area. The pulse dust collector and exhaust pipe for crushing dust, the water spray facilities and exhaust pipe for granulating and puffing odors are all located in the northwest outside the production workshop.

On the other side, the septic tank and integrated facilities are located on the north side of the complex, and the rainwater drainage outlet is located on the south side of the project.

The overall layout of the entire factory is reasonable, which can meet the requirements of production technology, environmental protection, safety and hygiene, and can meet the production, warehousing and logistics transportation needs of this 10t/h aquatic floating fish feed plant in the Philippines project.

Why invest in aquatic feed mill in the Philippines?

High Output And Low Energ Consumption

Philippines has a reputation for being one of Asia's leading exporters of aquaculture yields. Aquaculture in the Philippines does have a longstanding experience and involves the aquaculture of a variety of species.

The Philippines is rich in fishery resources, and aquatic products are the cheapest source of protein. The contribution of fisheries to the Philippines’ food security, people’s livelihood and economy is huge.

Due to the unstable climate in the Philippines, the Philippine capture fishery is often affected by bad weather. Therefore, the Philippine government encourages fish farmers to vigorously develop fish farming.

Demand-driven

Aqua feeding is one of the country's primary sources of food and protein, as well as a substantial contributor to the national economy. During the forecast period, the aqua feed market is expected to develop due to rising export demand and the expansion of aquaculture farming in the country.

Moreover, the demand for aquafeed in the region has risen due to rising population and aquaculture production. Additionally, many government initiatives aimed at increasing the production of certified sustainable seafood are driving up the need for aquafeed in the regions.

Philippines aquatic feed market was evaluated at US$663.633 million for the year 2020, growing at a CAGR of 3.38%, reaching the market size of US$837.532 million by the year 2027.

Promising shrimp feed production

It is worth mentioning that after the 10t/h aquatic feed mill in the Philippines is put into operation, if the Philippines aqua feed factory operates smoothly, the customer will invest in the shrimp feed industry.

In the Philippines aquafeed market, Litopenaeus vannamei had the biggest share. Due to its enormous economic worth and export, shrimp is one of the most significant cultivated species worldwide, particularly in the Philippines.

The whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) species, introduced to numerous coastal states, make up most of the country's total shrimp cultivation. As a result of the expanding international demand for litopenaeus vannamei, the Philippine aquafeed sector for the litopenaeus vannamei segment is predicted to increase rapidly throughout the forecast period.

It is clear that the Philippines is a great place to invest in the aquafeed business. If you want to invest in setting up Litopenaeus Vannamei feed mill, Carps feed mill, Shrimp feed mill, Tilapia feed mill, Mollusks feed mill, Catfish feed mill, Salmon feed mill, Lobsters feed mill and other type aqua feed mill, contact Richi Machinery for the most economical value solutions to help you gain profit opportunities in the field of aquatic feed processing.

Before you begin the shrimp fish aquatic feed mill in the Philippines, it is essential to create the ideal business plan for creating the aqua feed. The first step is to be aware of how the feed for fish is produced, then examine the following details:
