AQUATIC ANIMALS

COMBINED ACIDIFICATION AND HEAT TREATMENT

I. Description of the system

>REFERENCE TO A GRAPHIC>

The raw material is reduced by crushing and mixed with formic acid to reduce the pH thereof. The mixture is stored for an intermediary period pending new treatment. The product is then introduced into a heat converter. The progression of the product through the heat converter is controlled by means of mechanical commands limiting its displacement in such a way that at the end of the heat treatment operation the product has undergone a cycle which is sufficient in both time and temperature. After heat treatment, the product is separated into liquid/fat/greaves phases by mechanical means. In order to obtain an animal protein concentrate, the liquid phase is pumped into two heat-exchangers which are steam-heated and equipped with vacuum chambers in order for its humidity to be removed therein in the form of water vapour. The greaves are reincorporated in the protein concentrate before storage.

II. Critical control points in factories

1. Size of particles: after crushing, the size of the particles must be less than . . . mm.

2. pH: during the acidification phase, the pH must be lower than or equal to . . . The pH must be checked each day.

3. Duration of intermediary storage: it must be at least . . . hours.

4. Absolute duration of treatment: the load must be treated for at least . . . minutes at the minimum temperature indicated in paragraph 5.

5. Critical temperature: the temperature must be at least . . . °C and be recorded for each load on a permanent recording system. Each product manufactured at a lower temperature must be re-processed with raw material.`
