Pre-Processing
Pre-processing consists of metal detection and grinding. Wet waste is ground into a fine soup. Plate wastes from resorts, theme parks and institutions have sortation lines and automated equipment to remove metals, bottle caps, waste paper, bones, and other non-edible resid-uals which are separated prior to grinding.

Mixing
Wet and dry wastes are combined and mixed into a slurry-type feedstock with a target moisture content. Dry ingredients are selected for specific formulations for dairy, beef, swine, or poultry feed applications.

Pelletizing
The mixture of wet and dry slurry is fed to a patented Jet-Pro pelletizer and extruded into pellets. The purpose for forming pellets is to convert the material into a form that can be easily handled and subjected to further processing, such as drying.

Drying, Conditioning and Cooling
The pellets are fed to a patented Jet-Pro fluidized bed dryer. Drying removes much of the moisture, making the pellets less subject to degrading and spoilage. Conditioning is similar to the process of pasteurizing dairy products to assure the product is free of any pathogenic organisms. The product is heated to 230 deg-F and then maintained at this elevated temperature for 10-15 minutes.

Dehydrated Food Waste
Ideal for grower/finisher swine feed.
