OF TECHNOLOGY
Mechanoactivation is all about transforming raw materials that might otherwise end up as waste into usable, valuable products that increase sustainability and reduce expenses.
Recycling Raw Leather Materials into Protein Fodder
In leather industry within tannery processing more than 50% of hides turn into wastes. We consider leather wastes as valuable source of protein and spent years to develop technology of recycling leather materials to feeding protein powder, using mechanoactivation as a core.
As the result, this is a nutrient-rich powdered feeding protein fodder with more than 85% of protein content, available amino acids and no DNA
Homogeneous loose powder with high-albuminous content and high extent of digestibility, used for protein balancing of rations for all kinds of farming animals, poultry and fish

Recycling of chicken manure to feed protein additive for livestock
Chicken manure – serious modern poultry farming problem. Ecological issues and negative impact to the environment, rapid growth and maturity of dangerous patogenic microflora, spreading odor and financial losses – is incomplete list of problems caused by raw chicken manure. However, properly recycled with mechanoactivation, chicken manure converts to valuable sterile protein source, that can be effectively used for animal feeding purposes.
Results of experiment recycling chicken manure with the mean of mechanoactivation to protein powder and feeding of meat bulls
Silage: 10-12 kgs / head daily
Compound feed: 3 kgs / head daily
Other Key Experiments through Mechanoactivationn
Feather meal has a reputation of “poor protein” in the market and is used mostly to increase number of protein content of feeds. Our technological process, including extrusion and mechanoactivation, ensure breaking down of keratin into amino acids and make feather meal highly digestible
Reference:
Existing feather processing technologies do not allow to produce protein that makes up the feather (keratin) bio-available for absorption. As a result, feather meal has a reputation of “poor protein” in the market and is used mostly to increase the number of protein content of feeds. Extrusion and mechanoactivation ensure breaking down of keratin into amino acids, which makes this product highly digestible and qualitatively different from feather meal in the market.
Pig manure – is highly-acid bio waste and back side of modern sustainable farming. Processed with technology of mechanoactivation it can be converted from highly-acid, liquid, spreading pathogenic microflora and pungent odor bio-waste to sterile organic fertilizer
(~65% organic content)
phosphorus, potassium
Pig hair is often considered waste, even though it is potential valuable protein source.
Mechanoactivation is not limited to natural animal byproducts. In many cases, we can expand the capabilities of these systems into other industries. Apple pomace is organic waste, produced in canning, that contains moist solids sure to spoil quickly. After our process, a highly useful apple flour is produced that can retain its nutrient content for a long shelf life. This can apply to natural flavoring, organic fertilizer, and more.
In its raw form, straw is extremely poor source of nutrients. It has a lot of crude fiber, making it difficult for animals, except ruminants, to utilize in their daily feedings. Our technology allow to transform it into a complete feed source with high absorption of protein content and easy to digest as the fiber is broken down into simple sugars. This stimulates feed intake, leading to heavier and stronger cattle.
Raw hides is the amin source for leather production and is processed all over the world. However, hides should align with standards of leather industry. Torn, damaged, bitten by insects hides can’t be processed to leather and have to be disposed. Meanwhile, it`s a fantastic source of valuable protein. Recycling raw hides creates a highly versatile protein product that can be used in cosmetology, sports supplements production, food industry or animal feeding.
Tannery wastewater is one of the greatest problems of leather industry. Due to the composition and complex processing, it can be an ecological problem with high moisture and a pungent odor that wreaks havoc on a neighborhood. However, it can be recycled into a homogeneous valuable powder as an organic fertilizer resource with a neutral smell.
