Abstract
Method for processing and manufacture of chicken feed in using hatchery waste products, egg shells, dead chickens and spoiled eggs, blood, offal, by-products of waste water treatment, and fat in which there is a tank to provide intake and mix the various ingredients of a chicken feed, feeding mixed ingredients to cooker or dryer tanks or ovens over a vacuum line, and providing for ancillary or auxiliary venting through a vacuum blood storage tank, and in which hatchery waste and other material can be conveniently inmixed into a receiver tank in mixing ingredients for cooking into a chicken or animal feed.
Claims7
A process for making a feed product comprising
- feeding and coupling incoming material into a tank receptacle through a feed line connected to an upper location of said tank receptacle, said tank receptacle having a lower end,
- feeding and coupling animal blood also into said tank receptacle through another feed line,
- admixing said incoming material including egg shells, spoiled eggs, unhatched eggs, feathers, dead chicks, animal blood, offal, fat, and by-products of waste water treatment in said tank receptacle,
- rotating mechanical blade elements disposed near said lower end of the tank receptacle for stirring up the admixture into a main line moving aggregate of finely divided particulate,
- withdrawing by vacuum means said main line moving aggregate admixed particulate from the lower end of the tank receptacle through a pipe extending downwardly into near the bottom of the tank receptacle beneath a level of said rotating mechanical blade elements, said pipe opens to the interior of said tank receptacle with an opening having a 45.degree. cut and which opening faces away from said mechanical blade elements,
- passing the withdrawn main line moving aggregate admixed particulate through a wall of said tank receptacle,
- receiving the withdrawn main line moving aggregrate admixed particulate into a plurality of steam cooker members,
- heating the received main line moving aggregate admixed particulate under vacuum conditions where it is conditioned into animal edible feed, and,
- said heating step including processing said main line moving aggregate admixture under said vacuum conditions drawn through said tank receptacle and as well as through a series stage of the plurality of the steam cooker members and said tank receptacle.
