Pure Fat Powder 30-35, as its name suggests, is a fat-rich dietary supplement added to animal feed. This powder typically contains 30-35% pure fat and is used as a concentrated energy source for animals, especially during high-demand periods such as lactation and growth. Let’s delve deeper into this fat powder.
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.
Due to its high energy content and good digestibility, pure animal fat powder has numerous applications in animal feed. Some of the most important applications of this product include:
For animals with very high energy requirements, such as high-producing dairy cows, the use of 30-35% fat powder can be very beneficial. Also, during periods such as lactation, pregnancy, and growth, the use of this powder helps meet the energy needs of the animal.
This fat powder is used as a supplement in animal feed. Keep in mind that the choice of fat powder type and the amount of consumption should be based on the type of animal, production stage, environmental conditions, and the recommendations of an animal nutritionist. Improper use of these supplements can harm the health of animals.
