Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a feed used as a component for improving the palatability of a feed, particularly a compound feed, and an apparatus and a method for producing the feed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In the sugar-making process of a sugar-making factory, when the operation of crystal precipitation is repeatedly performed to a certain stage, the ratio of sugar that does not crystallize increases, and it is difficult to economically recover crystal sugar (sugar). The brown viscous final sugar solution at the stage of is called molasses (molasses).

[0003] That is, sugarcane is crushed into small pieces, the raw juice is squeezed with a pressing machine, heated, then neutralized by adding lime, precipitated in a sedimentation tank, filtered, and filtered. The liquid is concentrated in an evaporator, and the concentrated liquid is further concentrated in a crystallizer to crystallize sugar, which is then separated by a separator into sugar crystals and molasses.

The composition of this molasses has a sucrose content of about 30%,
5-8% of glucose and fructose, which are reducing sugars, and about 1 ash
7% and 23% to 27% by moisture.

Although molasses is generally used as a fermentation raw material in ethyl alcohol fermentation, amino acid fermentation, citric acid fermentation, butanol fermentation, yeast cultivation, etc., Okinawan molasses does not contain sucrose. In some cases, waste is dumped because it is close to the residue thoroughly collected.

[0006] In recent years, effective use of molasses has been considered as a method of using cattle as a bagasse feed by mixing about 15 to 20% by weight with bagasse, or mixing molasses when composting bagasse. Or fermentation agents, but all are trial uses and the amount used is only slight.

Utilization of molasses as livestock feed can be performed by diluting molasses with water each time it is fed and sprinkling the molasses as a spray, or by powdering or granulating molasses and mixing it with the rough feed. There are cases.

[0008] The powder or granulation of the molasses is carried out, for example, by a vacuum belt drying method. In this vacuum belt drying method, liquid molasses (raw material) is discharged from a nozzle onto a belt and heated under vacuum to evaporate the water of the molasses to produce dried porous molasses. It is obtained by crushing this.

[0009] Awamori, which has a unique flavor as authentic shochu, is distilled liquor made from rice and fermented with black koji mold. Distilled lees as waste produced in the production of awamori have a low moisture content. The liquid is as high as 91% to 94% and contains 1% or less of alcohol and a large amount of yeast protein in its components.

[0010] The yeast protein contained in a large amount in such distilled lees has a high nutritional value, so that the distilled lees can be fed to pigs, beef cattle, etc. as feed, or mixed with rice straw, sardine, etc. It was used by giving.

[0011]

However, when molasses is diluted in water each time it is fed and sprinkled on the roughage as a spray, it is troublesome to handle and does not mix uniformly with the roughage. However, there is a problem that nozzle clogging frequently occurs even when attempting to be mechanized, making it difficult to mechanize.

Further, molasses can be granulated only at the laboratory level, and even if it becomes granulated, it deliquesces immediately and cannot be mixed with the compound fertilizer.

[0013] As a feed, cereals are kneaded in a miso-like form using a solution obtained by adding high-temperature-resistant yeast to distilled spirits of shochu and fermentable molasses, and the kneaded product is fermented by a solid fermentation method to produce alcohol. Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 6-95890 discloses such a composition, and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-184558 discloses a mixture of a yeast extract and a saccharide followed by heat treatment as a raw material for palatable feed.

In the above embodiment of the present invention, a raw material liquid obtained by mixing molasses and awamori distilled lees at a ratio (weight ratio) of the awamori distilled lees 5 to the molasses 1 is heated and solidified. Then, the solidified product was cooled and pulverized to obtain a granular feed,
As the feed according to the present invention, powdered calcium carbonate,
Rice bran, a contaminant consisting of at least one of bagasse powder,
A raw material liquid obtained by mixing molasses and awamori distillation lees at a predetermined ratio (a ratio of awamori distillation lees 5 to waste molasses 1) is heated and solidified, and the solidified product is cooled, pulverized, and granulated. It may be something. Then, the dried and solidified mixture of the mixing agent (water content 0
%) Is preferably 2% to 10%.

In this case, the dry solidified material (water content: 0%) pulverized to a diameter of about several mm contains the contaminant at a ratio of 2% to 10%. Bonding between the solidified bodies is prevented, and the solidified bodies are not bonded to each other after the feed is packed in a bag, so that the feed can be maintained in a particle state.

Further, in the feed manufacturing apparatus, the mixing means mixes the mixing agent comprising at least one of powdered calcium carbonate, rice bran and bagasse powder, molasses, and awamori distilled lees at a predetermined ratio. The configuration has That is, in addition to the molasses tank 20 and the awamori distillation lees tank 21, a mixing agent tank is prepared, and the outlet side of the mixing agent tank is connected to the inlet side of the mixing tank 22 via a pipe to form a mixing tank 22. In the inside, a mixed agent composed of at least one of powdered calcium carbonate, rice bran, and bagasse powder, molasses, and awamori distilled lees are mixed at a predetermined ratio.

Therefore, in the method of producing a feed, the mixing step comprises mixing the admixture comprising at least one of powdered calcium carbonate, rice bran and bagasse powder, molasses, and awamori distilled lees at a predetermined ratio. This mixing step and subsequent steps are the same as the above-described processing steps of the raw material liquid composed of the mixture of molasses and awamori distilled lees.

For this reason, in the feed manufactured by this method of manufacturing a feed, since the contaminant is mixed in the solidified material pulverized to about several mm in diameter, the contaminant is mixed with the particulate solidified material.
