Background/Challenge : A leading supplier of ingredients for agriculture and animal/livestock nutrition needed to cost-efficiently increase its yield of premium products and capture the high-quality protein meal market. The supplier wanted to avoid the conventional practice of using vibrating or high-frequency screens, which are susceptible to blinding and costly maintenance. As the company researched its expansion it was led to Sturtevant’s unique approach of AIR CLASSIFICATION , a technology that would allow them to separate the fines, converting the normal protein meal into a high-value, low-ash grade meal. At the same time, the coarse fraction would still contain enough protein that it could be sold as regular protein feed.
The supplier consulted with Sturtevant, a company with more than 95 years of classifying experience in countless applications – among them a number of installations in South East Asia within large protein meal production operations. Sturtevant’s specialized air classifier technology is specifically designed to separate protein meals. Sturtevant was chosen for its proprietary equipment, air classifier experience and engineering skills, as well as its ability to test product specifications in their own lab.
