MEAT MEAL/MEAT POWDER

 The dehydration process is based on simultaneous heating and continuous mixing of poultry carcass material at 90–95 °C, resulting in an approximate 60% reduction in volume within a single processing cycle.

The thermal dehydration unit produces no visible emissions, other than water vapor. Measurements show that volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from the exhaust stack are only minimally elevated above background levels during operation.

The resulting meat powder is a stable, odor-free byproduct in which pathogens have been eliminated. The material can be applied directly to fields, incorporated into commercial fertilizer blends, or utilized in further commercial processing, subject to local regulations.

Compositional analysis has consistently demonstrated a moisture content of approximately 20%, with typical nutrient values of ~10% nitrogen (N), 0.5% phosphorus (P), and 0.6% potassium (K). When applied directly to land on a wet basis, this corresponds to approximately 160 lbs of nitrogen per ton, comparable to conventional commercial fertilizers.
