Chicken Feather Meal Processing Equipment is a type of feather processing equipment used to hydrolyze feathers to extract protein and other valuable components. It is primarily used in the animal feed industry. In this industry, feathers processed with feather meal equipment can be used as a high-protein feed additive to enhance the nutritional value of animals.
After the feather raw materials enter the dedicated hydrolysis tank, they are sealed with a lid. The temperature inside the tank is then gradually raised to 140°C. This temperature not only effectively kills any E. coli bacteria in the raw materials, ensuring product hygiene and safety, but also disrupts the molecular structure of the feather keratin, paving the way for subsequent protein conversion.
When the tank's operating pressure reaches the 0.3MPa-0.45MPa range, it must be maintained at this level for 15 minutes to ensure sufficient hydrolysis of the keratin. After the pressure maintenance period, the exhaust valve is opened to release excess steam from the tank, completing the core hydrolysis process and providing qualified intermediate material for subsequent feather powder processing (such as drying and pulverization).
Example of process flow chart: (Specific process needs to be customized according to customer needs)
1. Efficient Value Enhancement: Using a hydrolysis tank as the core, high-temperature, high-pressure process fully extracts over 80% of the high-quality protein and amino acids in feathers. The product can be used as a feed additive to enhance the nutritional value of feed.
2. Waste Material Recycling: Poultry slaughter byproducts/waste feathers are converted into high-value-added feather meal, reducing solid waste pollution and waste, aligning with the circular economy and generating additional revenue.
3. Improved Quality: After hydrolysis, large-molecule proteins are broken down into small-molecule peptide chains and amino acids, increasing digestibility by over 30% and eliminating harmful bacteria, making it a high-quality protein source for livestock, poultry, and aquatic feed.
4. High Production Efficiency: Equipped with an automated control system, precise temperature (140°C), pressure (0.3-0.45 MPa), and time (15 minutes) control reduces manual variation, ensures consistent batch quality, and increases scale-up production capacity.

The general working time of the Chicken Feather Meal Processing Equipment is 4-5 hours per batch. The specific time needs to be determined according to the moisture content and specific type of the customer's raw materials.
It is suitable for large, medium, and small-scale farms, slaughterhouses, harmless treatment centers, and individual farmers, processing feathers from livestock such as chickens, ducks, and geese. Feathers processed by the feather meal equipment can be turned into valuable protein feed, fertilizer, and more.
It includes a pulverizer, hydrolysis tank, buffer silo, feather water separator, feather squeezer, conveyor, hydrolysis tank, dryer, air cooler, quantitative packaging machine, exhaust gas condensation and deodorization system, and electrical control cabinet.
