Myrens Verksted A/s

Inge Magnus Tronstad

In a method and an apparatus for producing and drying a meal of cooked or heat treated animal material, especially fish or fish pulp, the cooked fish pulp is pressed for separation of liquid. After centrifuging and concentration, if desired, the separated liquid is added to the fish pulp during the drying thereof. The cooked and pressed pulp is disintegrated to meal particles before it is subjected to the drying process. By means of hot drying air the meal particles are transported through a drying device consisting of substantially vertically arranged riser and down pipes. In a transition area between associated riser and down pipes, the liquid concentrate is added to the meal particles, said concentrate being entrained by the stream of meal and air for mixing with and drying together with the meal particles to a finished dried meal.
