Additives
Pelletization is known to efficiently reduce flora in feed, but heat treatment can also deliver economic benefits to mills with the use of acidifying additives.
As energy costs continue to rise, researchers at Tecaliman, the Nantes, France-based feed technical center, have been experimenting with an acidifying additive that has potential to decrease feed mill energy bills. This method allows feed plants to lower its heat treatment temperature while improving its enterobacteria-fighting efficiency.
