Production line and factory setup overview
A closed small/medium line converting fresh segregated abattoir blood into dried fertiliser ingredient through anticoagulant-free hygienic collection where specified, screening, chilled short holding, controlled coagulation/cooking, mechanical dewatering, indirect or rotary drying, cooling, milling, screening and sealed bagging. Blood decomposes rapidly, so daily coordinated collection and odour control are fundamental.
Recommended lowest-entry line configuration For the lowest credible entry, locate beside one licensed abattoir and use a 200-500 kg blood/batch screened collection tank, 3-ton or smaller coagulation/cooking vessel, press dewaterer, indirect or controlled rotary dryer, crusher and bagger. Sell only analysed fertiliser-grade blood meal; do not claim feed grade without separate approval.
Production process and implementation sequence
- Closed by-product receiving
- Size reduction or liquid screening
- Controlled thermal cooking/coagulation
- Mechanical dewatering or pressing
- Validated drying
- Cooling and protected transfer
- Grinding, screening and metal check
- Bagging, coding and dry storage
Products, capacity and market fit
- Formal abattoirs need safe routes for high-load animal by-products.
- Thermal processing can convert a disposal cost into a controlled product.
- A batch plant matches variable Afghan slaughter volumes.
- The final market must be legally confirmed before equipment purchase.
- Blood-meal fertiliser ingredient - Declared nitrogen/protein analysis, controlled moisture, pathogen treatment and particle size - Licensed fertiliser blenders and agricultural users
- Feed-grade blood meal expansion - Only under feed authority approval and buyer microbiological/nutritional standard - Licensed feed mills after validation
Core production machinery and line specifications
