2 Fundamentals of Extrusion Processing
Recipe Hardware Software Product Specifications

3 Raw Materials Raw materials and their characteristics are always the most important extrusion variable.

4 Particle Size Analysis of Typical Aquatic Feeds
U.S. Standard Sieve Openings in Microns Percent on Sieve 20 30 40 50 60 80 Pan 850 600 425 300 250 180 1.00 3.00 28.0 29.0 21.0 14.0 4.0 Geometric Mean Diameter: 327 Microns Geometric Standard Deviation: 1.58

5 Benefits of Proper Particle Size
Improved product appearance Reduced incidence of die orifices plugging Ease of cooking Reduced product breakage and fines Increased water stability Improved retention of liquid coatings due to small cell structure

6 Guidelines for Grind of Recipe
Maximum particle size = 1/3 of die opening Not to exceed 1.5mm grind 800 micron mm

7 Particle Size Analysis of Two Grinding Processes of Extruded Feed
US Sieve Opening (microns) 1.5 mm grind (%)* 425 micron grind (%)** 20 840 0.50 30 590 3.51 40 420 37.75 50 297 40.16 36.75 60 250 10.44 34.31 70 210 5.12 13.60 80 177 3.15 100 149 3.55 140 105 4.37 Pan 2.51 4.26 *Mean Diameter = 316µm, 66,768 particles/g **Mean Diameter = 224µm, 519,365 particles/g

10 Recipe Preparation Grind ingredients to proper particle size
Weigh individual ingredients Particle size and density of each ingredient should be similar Premix by hand the micro-ingredients (anything less than 1% of total recipe) and add a carrier (part of a major ingredient) if necessary to bring premix size up to 3% of total recipe Add major ingredients, then premix (from #4) to mixer and mix 3-5 minutes. Add any liquids slowly and then mix another 3-5 minutes Final grind, if required Use sifter and/or magnet to detect and remove foreign material

11 PROTEIN Plant Sources Animal or Marine Sources
Soy, Legumes, Wheat/corn glutens, cereal grains Good functional properties Lower cost Amino acid profile may require supplementation Animal or Marine Sources Meat, Fish, Poultry, Blood, Gelatin Poor functional properties unless fresh or spray dried Higher costs Good amino acid profile

12 Vegetable Proteins in Salmon, Trout, and Shrimp Diets
Maximum Substitution for Fish Meal (%) Disadvantages Maize Gluten Meal 40 Yellow pigmentation of flesh Wheat Gluten 25 High Cost Soybean Meal 50 Palatability and Growth Inhibitors Soy Concentrate 75 Canola Meal 67 Low Protein Content Hardy (January 1999) Feed Management Magazine

13 Benefits of Vegetable Proteins in Aquatic Diets
More expansion potential for floating diets More binding potential for improved durability Reduced ingredient costs Lower incidence of white mineral deposits in screw and die area Higher oil absorption levels possible in coating operations Reduce dependence on fish meal

21 Protein denatures at 60 - 700C
As protein denatures, it becomes insoluble (non-functional) Starch gelatinizes at C As starch gelatinizes it becomes soluble

22 STARCH Raw potato starch magnified 450 X Carbohydrate - energy source
Assists expansion Improves binding and pellet durability Found in two forms Amylose Amylopectin % levels in aquatic food Raw potato starch magnified 450 X

23 Effect of Extrusion on Starch
Gelatinizes starch Improves digestibility in most species Forms starch-lipid complexes Increases binding characteristics Increases susceptibility to enzyme hydrolysis

24 Recommended Starch Levels in Aquatic Feeds
Type Floating Sinking Minimum Starch (%) 20 10

25 Starch Content of Common Cereal Grains

27 Minimum Moisture Levels Necessary to Initiate Starch Gelatinization
Starch Source % Moisture Wheat Corn Waxy Corn High Amylose Corn 31 28 34 Lower moistures during extrusion require higher extrusion temperatures to achieve same level of cook.

28 Rice as a Starch Source Small, tightly packed starch granules that hydrate slowly Becomes sticky when it gelatinizes Choose long grain varieties over medium and short grain varieties as they are much less sticky when cooked Rice is very digestible even when cook values are low Rice bran may contain up to 40% starch

29 Corn as a Starch Source Good expansion Excellent binding
Sticky at high levels (>40%)

30 Wheat as a Starch Source
Good binding Good expansion Can be sticky if overcooked Contains gluten (good binder) Most widely available starch source Often utilized as wheat flour which has most of the bran removed

31 Tubers as a Starch Source (Potato & Cassava)
Excellent binding (at 5% levels) Requires less total starch in diet Good expansion Often precooked Smooth pellet surface Increased cost

33 Purposes of Fat in Feeds
Energy Source Increases Palatability Provides Essential fatty acids Carrier for Fat Soluble Vitamins

34 Fat Sources Animal Fat Poultry Fat Marine Oils
Blended Animal and Vegetable Fats Feed Grade Vegetable Fats Must use FAH (fat acid hydrolysis) method for determining fat levels in extruded products.

35 Effect of Fat Levels on Product Quality (Single Screw Systems)
Level of Fat in Extruded Mix Effect on Product Quality <7% 7-12% 12-17% Above 17% Little or no effect For each 1% of Fat Above 7%, the final bulk density will increase 16 g/l Product will have little or no expansion, but will retain some durability Final product durability may be poor Add 5% to above figures for twin screw systems

40 Vitamin & Pigment Retention
Vitamin/Pigment Retention Depends On: Raw material formulation Temperature Moistures Retention times An average of 10 to 15 percent of vitamins and pigments are lost during extrusion. Compensation is made by overages. Heat stable forms are preferred.
