Aquafeed Horizons Asia announces hotel deals and joint registration with feed ingredient conference
Delegates to Aquafeed Horizons Asia 2008, which will take place at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, Bangkok, March 6, 2008, can now register jointly for the Feed Ingredients & Additives Asia Pacific (FIAAP) Conference. This related conference will take place at the same venue on the previous day.
"We know that many people will be interested in both conferences and it makes sense to register for both at once", Suzi Fraser Dominy, president of Aquafeed.com and both meetings, commented. "Combined registration will cut down the paper work for delegates ad save them money".
The FIAAP Conference program is close to being finalized and includes a number of presentations of direct relevance to the aquafeed community. In particular:
Natural Ingredients – Product Opportunities and Process Issues - Colin Mair, Cormal Technology Ltd., U.K.
Amino acid content in fishmeal shows high variation - Torben Gosvig Madsen, Regional Technical Service Manager, Degussa (SEA) Pte. Ltd.
A comparison of digestible protein and amino acids content and value of terrestrial animal protein meals for aquafeeds - Dr. Yu Yu, National Renderers Association, Inc.,
A healthy gut for optimal performance through target release concepts in animal diets - Koen Schwarzer, NUTRI-AD International N.V.
Bacterial Contamination Of Feed And Feed Ingredients – Importance Of Control For Food Safety And Animal Performance - Dr Adam Smith, Anitox Ltd, Earls Barton, Northants, NN6 OHJ, United Kingdom
Mycotoxins in animal nutrition - problems and solutions - Mathieu Cortyl, Impextraco NV, Singapore Representative Office.
Aqafeed Horizons sia and FAAP are beng held in association with Victam Asia 2008 and delegates will be ble to visit both shows freeof charge. Special hotel rates have been announced and you can find these on the conferences' websitebelow:

Technical Advancements in Extruded Shrimp Feeds
Wenger Mfg., Inc., Kansas, USA
Email: jkearns@wenger.com
This presentation will cover the current possible technology used in production of shrimp feeds via extrusion and the advantages of this method of production.
The review will cover all aspects of this process from the raw materials through to drying and cooling before packaging.
The final product quality aspects of shrimp feeds via extrusion compared to other processing methods will also be presented.

Beyond Pre-Conditioning – Reducing Carbon Footprint and Increasing Quality
Colin Mair, Cormal Technology Ltd., U.K.
Email : colinmair@btinternet.com
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.
