摘要:
A feed supplement for livestock includes, in a feed supplement combination, a quantity of waste product material selected from the group comprising dissolved air floatation product (DAF) and paunch manure and a quantity of an inert dry medium which will not chemically react with the waste product material such as soy hulls, hay, alfalfa, corn and other such dry mediums. The waste product material comprises between one percent (1%) and ninety-nine percent (99%) of the feed supplement combination. The feed supplement combination is then processed through an extrusion process involving the cooking, grinding and mixing of the feed supplement combination under pressure and elevated temperature, wherein the temperature of the feed supplement combination is raised above 250 degrees Fahrenheit to sterilize and dehydrate the feed supplement combination.
摘要:
A process is provided for producing animal feed from food waste by providing a dry, pelletized, fibrous organic material. Specifically, the invention relates to methods of thickening/dewatering solids that contain substantial amounts of moisture, e.g., ground food waste.

Disclosed is a method for treating a grain fiber, in particular corn fiber. In accordance with the disclosed subject matter, the fiber is subjected to alkaline hydrolysis in the presence of a hemicellulose ferulate esterase in an aqueous medium. The hemicellulose ferulate esterase is present in an amount effective to catalyze alkaline hydrolysis, and the alkaline hydrolysis is performed under conditions suitable to permit the hemicellulose ferulate esterase to catalyze alkaline hydrolysis. The initial pH of the aqueous medium is alkaline but is sufficiently low to permit the enzyme to have catalytic activity. Preferably, the pH is in the range from 8.0 to 9.5. From the product mixture thus formed, fiber oil, cellulose, hemicellulose, and other materials may be obtained.
摘要:
A process for preparing a protein-rich animal feed from waste food is described, wherein the food is cooked with steam, minced, dried, sterilized with radio waves, and put in condition to serve as a feed for protein-producing animals for human consumption.

The present invention includes a cranberry seed oil, a cranberry flour and a method for making cranberry seed oil and flour. The cranberry seed oil comprises beta sitosterol and phosphatidylcholine.
摘要:
A process and composition for controlling fecal hair excretion and trichobezoar formation in animals such as cats and rabbits is provided and includes feeding the animal a composition comprising from about 10 to about 42 wt % crude protein, from about 4 to about 30 wt % fat, from about 1 to about 25 wt % total dietary fiber, and a supplemental fiber source. The supplemental fiber source is present in amounts which provide from about 1 to about 13 weight percent of supplemental total dietary fiber. The animal is maintained on the diet for a sufficient period of time to control fecal hair excretion and trichobezoar formation.
摘要:
A method for processing straw pulp that includes caustic treatment is provided. The caustic treated straw pulp can be incorporated into a papermaking furnish to provide a paper product. The caustic treated pulp imparts strength to papers incorporating the pulp.
摘要:
A pet food product and process for repartitioning nitrogen and increasing colonic blood flow in dogs is provided which involves feeding a dog a diet of a pet food composition containing fermentable fibers which have an organic matter disappearance of 15 to 60 percent when fermented by fecal bacteria for a 24 hour period, the fibers being present in amounts from about 1 to 11 weight percent of supplemental total dietary fiber. The dog is maintained on the diet for a sufficient period of time to allow the fermentable fibers to ferment in the colon of the dog. The fermentation results in an increased quantity of bacteria in the colon of the dog, resulting in increased nitrogen excretion through the feces of the dog.
摘要:
Coffee grounds containing diterpenes are added together with and heated with phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid, or sulfuric acid at a temperature of between 80.degree. C. and 100.degree. C. for a time to degrade the diterpenes, and the product so treated is dried and may be used as a part of an animal food.
