The mathematical model for the process of oily raw materials pressing with single-screw oil press has been developed, which makes it possible to calculate the main design parameters of an oil press for extracting oil from oil crop seeds. This model of pressing describes the process of moving meal in the pressure zone and expression of oil in the pressing cage of the screw press, taking into account the following assumptions: porous skeleton and oil have the same density, they have no chemical interaction, the process of oil filtration occurs under isothermal conditions with laminar conditions of motion. The developed mathematical model corresponds to physical meaning of the occurring phenomena and can be used to analyze the work of active presses, and at the design stage.
The problem of developing of highly digestible compound feeds with protected protein for cattle is due to the specifics of the gastric tract of cows and the peculiarities of protein assimilation. Due to the importance of preliminary moisture-heat treatment of grain for the subsequent course of the extrusion process, it was carried out by steam at a pressure of 0.6 МРа before moistening the feed to a humidity of 17–20% and heating to a temperature of 70–80° C. It is established that heat treatment has a significant effect on the carbohydrate complex of grain: heating it at high temperatures causes the destruction of starch, accompanied by the formation of easily soluble carbohydrates, which has a positive effect on the digestibility of feed. The kinetic regularities of the processes of moisture-heat treatment, grinding and extrusion of grain in the production of highly digestible feed with protected protein for cattle were studied. The degree of dextrinization and the digestibility of starch increased with the heating temperature of corn and its mixtures with wheat up to 100–110° C, when the performance of the extruder was 300–320 kg/h, the digestibility of starch extruded corn and grain mixture is increased to 85 and 68 mg of glucose per 1 g of the product (hereinafter mg/g), respectively. For wheat, this indicator is lower and, accordingly, is 50 mg/g. When heated during the extrusion of corn to a temperature of up to 120–140° C, the digestibility of starch was 100–110 mg/g, and for the grain mixture – 80–83 mg/g. At this temperature, the digestibility of the starch of extruded wheat corresponded to 60–65 mg/g. The optimal moisture content of feed in the process of extrusion for the purpose of forming pellets is 18%. Studies of the extrusion effect on the carbohydrate complex of processed feed have shown that the destruction of starch in the extruded product increases. Thus, the content of soluble carbohydrates increases by 27–32%, and the digestibility of starch increases twice in extruded feed compared to unprocessed.
As a result of the analysis of domestic experience over the past 10 years and foreign experience (on the example of 9 countries: Vietnam, India, Spain, Canada, China, Norway, the USA, Chile, Japan, which possess the most advanced technologies and equipment for the production of highly effective feed for fish ) in the development of innovative technologies and equipment for the production of highly effective feed for fish, it was found out that the methods of both dry and wet pressing are outdated and do not meet modern requirements for the production of feed for fish, as they do not allow to carry out deep physicochemical transformations in the protein-carbohydrate complex and to introduce fat components at 40% level. Modern fish technologies are based on the use of extrusion processing of a multicomponent mixture to impart different buoyancy and adjustable immersion speed of the resulting feed. Extrusion technology will allow to introduce a large amount of fat into the product - up to 35–40%, to achieve 100% starch cleavage level. Extruded product has high water resistance, keeps its shape. New generation developed compound feed formulations for tilapia with 60% protein content, 40% fat, with the introduction of growth stimulants, dietary supplements, etc., will increase the digestibility of compound feed by fish by 10-12%, increase of fish weight by 10-12%, reduce the cost of commercial fish farming by 10–15%, reduce feed conversion by 15%. The proposed technology will allow to create new generation compound feeds formulations for various fish species with a high content of protein-fat complex, which will increase the weight gain of fish by 12-17%, reduce the cost of final fish production by reducing the cost of feed by 10-15%. .
The technology of production of compound feeds for agricultural (pigs) and unproductive (dogs, cats) animals, as well as for fur-bearing animals (minks, arctic foxes, sables) and valuable fish (sturgeon, trout, etc.), in which the replacement of expensive components of animal origin (fish meal, meat and bone meal, blood meal, offal), for extruded vegetable high-protein components (soy, sunflower or rapeseed meal, lupine, peas, soy) is carried out. The use of vacuum spraying of thermolabile liquid components (amino acids, protein-vitamin-mineral additives, vitamins, fats) on the surface of extruded pellets will allow you to obtain highly digestible feed. The kinetic regularities of the studied processes of humidification and steaming, extrusion, drying/cooling and draining are determined, and their rational modes are revealed. The technological scheme of the line for the production of highly digestible compound feeds has been developed, which includes the following equipment: hopper; extruder; dryer-cooler; liquid component injection plant, draining machine; conveyor and finished product hopper. According to the technical characteristics (overall dimensions, weight, occupied area, drive power, uniformity of application of fat on the surface of granules), the manufactured coating machine and the liquid component injection unit exceed the best world analogues. The technology of vacuum mixing with the introduction of liquid components will ensure their uniform distribution over the entire volume, reduce the duration of mixing, which will increase the productivity of the vacuum mixer and reduce energy consumption. The developed technology and promising types of technological equipment (mixer, extruder, vacuum sprayer, dryer-cooler) will make it possible to obtain highly digestible feed of a new generation with a protein content of 60 %, fat content of 40 %, with the introduction of growth stimulants, biologically active additives. An increase in the protein and fat complex will increase the digestibility of compound feeds by 10-12 %, increase weight gain by 10-12 % and reduce feed conversion by 15 %.
