Pure Fat Powder
With Palmitic 30-35%
Pure fat powder 30 to 35%, as the name suggests, is a food supplement rich in fat that is added to the feed of livestock. This powder usually contains 30 to 35% pure fat and is used as a dense energy source for livestock, especially during periods of high demand such as lactation and growth.
The production of pure animal fat powder involves several steps, which can be summarized as follows:
Purification: The raw extracted fat contains impurities such as water, protein, and minerals. These impurities are removed from the fat using methods such as filtration, centrifugation, and distillation.
Bleaching: To improve the color and appearance of the fat, a bleaching process is carried out. This process is usually done using adsorbent earths like Fuller’s earth. o
Deodorization: To remove unpleasant odors, a deodorization process is carried out using high-temperature steam.
Breaking down triglycerides: In this stage, the triglycerides present in the fat are broken down into free fatty acids and glycerol. This process is usually carried out using lipase enzymes or strong acids.
Conversion to salt: The free fatty acids obtained from hydrolysis are converted into sodium or potassium salts using bases such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. These salts are known as soaps.
Removal of impurities: The soap obtained from the previous stage is washed with water to remove any remaining impurities.
Conversion to Powder: The concentrated soap solution is converted into a powder using a spray dryer. In this process, the solution is sprayed as fine droplets into a drying chamber, and the water evaporates, resulting in a fat powder.
Hygienic Packaging: The produced fat powder is packaged in hygienic and moisture-proof containers and stored in cool and dry warehouses.
