The presentation will be on upstream processing to improve process efficiencies.
It will explore work done on early pre-hydration and the effect on improved production rates, the hydration being either/and combinations of grain tempering and last minute addition of water to ground powders before going into the storage bin that feeds the extruder.
Also there will be discussion of high speed continuous mixer/choppers to hydrate and add other liquids before the conditioner, and the theory that supports these technologies.
Also ways of misting steam and water into existing conditioners and the beneficial effect of these. Also the effect of pre-heating conditioning water.
The presentation will be an overview of techniques that are available to improve product quality through homogenous mixing and heating and to improve production rates and reduce machine wear.
