8-10T/H Animal Feed Factory in Senegal

This is an animal feed factory in Senegal project with an output of 8-10 tons per hour for processing livestock and aquatic feed. The customer mainly uses corn, wheat, soybean meal, rapeseed meal, rice bran, etc. as the main raw materials. The entire production line adopts granulation technology, and the processed fish feed is also sinking granular feed, and there is no extrusion process.

8-10T/H Animal Feed Factory in Senegal

OVERVIEW

Senegal is an agricultural country. About 60% of the population lives in rural areas, and the added value of the agricultural industry accounts for about 15% of GDP. The main food crops include rice, corn, sorghum, cassava, etc., and the main cash crops are peanuts, cotton, sesame, as well as tropical fruits, vegetables and flowers.

With the increase in the Senegalese government's investment in seeds and fertilizers, the output of food crops and cash crops has increased. In addition, with the popularization of healthy eating concepts, the demand for organic and green food in the Senegalese market continues to grow. These factors provide a stable market demand for feed production.

Based on the good market prospects, the client of this project invested 380,000 US dollars to build a feed factory project with an annual output of 20,000 tons to process compound feed for livestock, poultry, aquatic products, etc. The main production process is: feeding (corn, wheat, soybean meal, rapeseed meal, rice bran, etc.) → crushing → mixing → granulation → packaging.

After the animal feed factory in Senegal project is completed and put into operation, the number of employees will be 15. There will be 300 working days a year, 1 shift per day, and 8 hours per shift.

Process design of animal feed factory in Senegal

The production process of the Senegal livestock fish feed production line project mainly includes 5 sections: (1) Raw material receiving and initial screening section (2) Crushing section (3) Ingredient mixing section (4) Cooling section (powdered products do not include this section) (5) Grading and packaging section.

Brief description of the process:

Raw material receiving and initial screening

The raw materials of the animal feed factory in Senegal project mainly include bulk raw materials such as wheat, corn, meal and powdered materials such as salt. All raw materials are bagged raw materials and are temporarily stored in the raw material warehouse after purchase. Raw materials such as wheat, corn, meal and other raw materials need to be crushed, while powdered materials such as salt do not need to be crushed.

The Senegal fish livestock feed production line project uses a set of feeding systems to feed separately. Raw materials such as salt are manually unpacked and then fed from the feeding hopper and feeding fence by manual feeding; wheat, corn and other raw materials are directly fed from the feeding hopper and feeding fence.

After the raw materials are added, they are lifted by the scraper conveyor and elevator and enter the next process. After being screened by the cylindrical primary screen and magnetically separated by the permanent magnetic drum, the granular material enters the pulverizing bin.

The primary screen is mainly used to remove some large impurities, and the magnetic separation is mainly used to remove some magnetic impurities in the raw materials to protect the safety of equipment and feed; the powder that does not need to be pulverized enters the batching bin directly after being screened by the cone powder screen and magnetically separated by the permanent magnetic drum.

Raw material pulverization

This process is mainly carried out for granular materials that need to be pulverized. The screened raw materials are crushed to a particle size of 5.0 mm by a crusher, and the crushed raw materials are mixed according to a certain proportion. The crushed raw materials are lifted by the elevator and enter the batching bin.

 

Batching and mixing section

The raw materials are transported by the batching auger according to the formula quantity and batching sequence set by the system, and enter the batching scale for cumulative measurement.

Small materials are added from the small material port through the small material adding machine, and the two are mixed together in the feed mixer. The mixing is mainly carried out by a double-shaft paddle high-efficiency mixer. After the materials enter the mixer, the mechanical action of the paddles gradually mixes the materials evenly.

Cooling Section

The animal feed factory in Senegal project products include powder and granules. After the ingredients are mixed, the powder product can be obtained, and the powder product directly enters the finished product warehouse; after the ingredients are mixed, the granule product can be obtained after the granulation process.

The Senegal animal feed processing plant project adopts the method of hot granulation by passing steam into the feed warehouse. The granulation process uses steam modulation. The project uses a biomass boiler to provide the steam required for pelleting. The required temperature is about 150°C.

The project is continuous granulation and continuous heating steam. Granulation is mainly to improve palatability, increase feed digestibility, reduce animal picky eating, avoid automatic grading of feed ingredients, and kill salmonella in animal feed.

After the material is pressed by animal feed pellet machine, it enters each point of the cooling tower evenly through the air lock and the distributor. The cooling tower cools and dries the material by counterwind drying, and automatically discharges the material through material level sensing. Cooling is a physical process that reduces the moisture content inside and outside the feed to the qualified moisture range.

Grading and packaging section

The cooled granular finished products enter the flat rotary grading screen through the elevator to complete the three-level sieving. The qualified finished products in the middle enter the finished product warehouse, and the powdered materials under the sieve are re-entered into the animal feed granulator for granulation. The upper sieve materials (mainly materials that stick together due to insufficient drying) are returned to the cooling and drying system for cooling and drying.

The products in the finished product warehouse are divided into bulk and bagged parts. Bulk products are directly transported by buyers in tank trucks. Bagged finished products are packaged and stored after being graded by the vibrating screen.

Powdered finished products that do not require granulation directly enter the finished product warehouse after completing the third process (ingredient mixing), and are packaged and stored after vibrating screening. The vibration screening of powdered materials is mainly to remove powder lumps. The lumps are collected and directly returned to the mixing system for reprocessing.

Reasonableness of project layout

This animal feed factory in Senegal project is divided into production area, storage area and living and office area, and the entrance and exit are set on the north side. Comprehensive analysis of the plant layout can meet the requirements of production process, production management and daily maintenance, which is conducive to organizing production, transporting raw materials and delivering products. The flow of people and logistics is clear, and the plant layout is feasible.

At present, we have established multiple pellet production lines in Senegal, including poultry feed pellet production lines, cattle feed pellet production lines, sheep feed pellet production lines, floating fish feed production lines, peanut shell pellet production lines (processing feed), wood pellet production lines (processing fuel), sawdust production lines (processing animal bedding), efb pellet plant (for fuel), straw pellet line (for feed and fuel), etc.
