15 T/H Chicken Feed Mill in Iran

This 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran is a feed factory expansion project. The client company is an enterprise integrating poultry feed processing and poultry feed breeding.

In August 2016, this customer built a construction project with an annual output of 90,000 tons of feed and 15 million broilers.

After several years of development, because the feed production of the customer company is currently running at full capacity and the supply exceeds demand, in 2022, the customer plans to expand the existing feed production scale and is still under construction in the original factory area.

According to the actual needs of customers, we customize a complete chicken feed mill expansion plan for customers and provide all feed equipment for the expansion project.

The factory currently covers an area of 25,335m2. The existing buildings include feed production workshops, broiler sales sheds and cleaning sheds, warehouses, office buildings, dormitory buildings, canteens, sales service departments, boiler rooms, power distribution rooms, and guard rooms.

This 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project purchased new feed production equipment and installed it next to the feed production line in the existing production workshop. This expansion project does not require new land and relies on existing raw material warehouses, finished product warehouses, raw material silos, biomass boilers and other buildings.

• Feed production workshop:
  This expansion project installs equipment next to the chicken feed production line of the existing feed production workshop. No new land is used.
  The expansion project occupies 1000m2 of feed production workshop. A feed production workshop has been built, with a total construction area of 2000m2.
• Production workshop:
  This expansion project will add new production equipment next to the production line of the existing feed production workshop without adding new land. Therefore, production during the operation period will rely on the existing production workshop.
• Finished product warehouse, raw material warehouse, and boiler:
  This 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project is mainly to expand the scale of feed production.
  According to the on-site survey and the information provided by the construction unit, the finished product warehouse, raw material warehouse, and biomass boiler can all meet the needs of this expansion project.
  Therefore, this expansion project The expansion project relies on the existing finished product warehouse, raw material warehouse and biomass boiler.
• Office building:
  The expansion project will not increase the labor capacity, so no new office building will be built, and the existing office building will be used for office work.

This 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project is an expansion project with an annual output of 70,000 tons of feed. The product plans before and after the project expansion are detailed in the table below:

• Chicken feed, sold to broiler chicken breeding companies and surrounding farmers
• The sales scale of broiler chickens remains unchanged. Breeding and slaughtering are still not carried out in the factory, only purchasing and selling.

This 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project only expands the scale of feed production. The sales scale of broiler chickens remains unchanged. The chicken feed production process is consistent with the existing engineering feed production process, as follows:

1. After entering the chicken feed factory, corn and feed oil are stored in silos in the factory area. There are 6 silos in the factory area, which are used to store corn and feed oil respectively.
   Other raw materials are stored in the raw material warehouse after entering the factory. The raw materials are first crushed after passing through the feed port, and then temporarily stored in the corresponding batching bin.
2. Relying on the existing chicken feed production line, the mixed enzyme yellow fertilizer, lysine, sodium chloride, threonine and other mixed trace elements, protein, feed oil and other crushed raw materials are directly mixed in the mixer in proportion.
3. The mixed powder enters the warehouse to be granulated, and steam is introduced into the chicken feed granulator.
   The raw materials are basically not affected by external forces in the feeding area of the chicken feed pellet machine. With the rotation of the die roller, the raw materials enter the compression area. In this area, the raw materials are squeezed by the die roller, causing relative movement between the powders.
   As the raw materials advance forward, the extrusion force gradually increases, the moving speed accelerates, and a certain connection is formed between the raw materials. After the raw materials enter the extrusion zone, the extrusion force increases sharply, the powder materials are further tightened, and the contact surface is further increased.
   When the extrusion force continues to increase, the raw material with a certain density is extruded into the die hole. In the die hole, after a certain period of extrusion, pellet feed is formed.
4. During the pelleting process, due to the introduction of high-temperature and high-humidity steam, and the extrusion of the raw materials to generate a large amount of heat, the moisture content of the chicken pellet feed reaches 16%~18% and the temperature reaches 75~85°C when it just comes out of the machine.
   Under such conditions, the feed is easily deformed and broken, and sticking and mildew will occur during storage. The moisture must be reduced to less than 14% and the temperature must be lowered to higher than room temperature, so cooling is required.
   In this 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project, a cooler is used to cool the formed feed. During the cooling process, a fan is used to cool the feed, which can reduce the moisture content of the feed to less than 12.5%.
   The feed that passes through the cooler can be sold as a finished product after being packaged.

This 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project purchased new feed production equipment from Richi Machinery, such as crushers, pulse dust collectors, mixers, chicken poultry feed pellet machines, crumblers, and double-bucket belt packaging scales, and installed them next to the feed production line in the existing production workshop.

This Iran chicken feed plant project plans to add a 3t twin-shaft paddle mixer to replace the existing twin-shaft high-efficiency mixer, and the remaining existing production equipment will continue to be produced.

There will be no new employees in this 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project. In order to meet the needs of the new production capacity, the employees' working shifts after the expansion will be changed from the existing one shift to two shifts for production. There are currently 58 employees in the factory, all of whom have room and board in the factory.

The expansion project implements a two-shift system, each shift is eight hours, and the working hours are from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm. The company works 280 days a year. The project does not produce at night.

01

Water suppl

The 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project water is supplied by the urban tap water supply pipe network. This expansion project mainly expands the scale of feed production. There is no production water in the feed production process and the project does not increase the labor capacity. Therefore, the expansion project does not add new production water and domestic water.

02

Drainage

The boiler dust removal water is recycled after settling in the sedimentation tank and is not discharged; the wastewater of this 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project is mainly the wastewater generated during the boiler soft water preparation process. The wastewater production volume is 0.96t/d, which is reused for cleaning the existing engineering broiler sales shed.

03

Power supply

This project is powered by the urban power grid, relying on the existing power supply system, with an annual power consumption of approximately 1 million kilowatt hours.

This 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project plans to purchase equipment and install it next to the poultry feed production line in the existing production workshop, without adding new land. The layout of the existing buildings in the factory area is as follows:

• The feed production workshop is located in the north, which is equipped with a boiler room and a power distribution room;
• The finished product warehouse is on the west side of the feed production workshop and the raw material warehouse is on the east side;
• The broiler sales shed is located on the southwest side of the factory area;
• The southeast side is the staff living and office area.

The solid waste of this 15t/h chicken feed mill in Iran project mainly comes from the debris generated during the impurity removal process, iron impurities generated during the iron removal process, dust collected by the pulse bag dust collector, waste packaging bags, and boiler slag.

01
