The production of fishmeal and fish oil at our Qurun facility involves detailed and precise steps to ensure top-quality output:
Fishmeal Production:
Cooking: The process begins with the raw fish being cooked in a cylindrical cooker with a spiral axis and steam heating device. This step ensures that the fish is thoroughly cooked and ready for further processing.
Pressing: Once cooked, the fish is transferred to a screw press. The press separates the liquid (fish oil and water) from the solid material (press cake). This stage is crucial for extracting the maximum amount of liquid while retaining the essential solid components for fishmeal.
Separation: The press liquid, which contains a mixture of fish oil and protein water, is processed through a tri-canter. This advanced equipment separates the fish oil from the protein water, ensuring the purity and quality of both products.
Pulverizing : After drying, the fishmeal is pulverized in a grinder to produce a fine fishmeal powder. This powder is further cooled in a cooler with circulating water inside the coil, ensuring that the fishmeal is at an optimal temperature for packing.
Drying: The press cake is then moved to a dryer, which consists of a horizontal crust, rotor, and disc type with steam coils. The drying process reduces the moisture content of the fishmeal to 6-10%, effectively controlling microbial activity and preserving the product.
Packing : The cooled fishmeal is weighed according to specifications using a calibrated weigh balance. It is then packed into specified fishmeal bags, ready for storage and distribution.
