Brewer's spent grain & distillers grain

Dried spent grain will have a relatively long shelf life, and is rich in both fiber and protein, and can therefore be an ingredient in many new value chains. Used grain from distilleries and breweries can be used for fertilizer production, in human food, for livestock, biogas production and much more.

Unlock these second value chains by the design and installation of a Fjell Turbo Disc drying process. We deliver an energy efficient way to dry your brewer's spent grain and distillers grain.

Drying of other raw materials

Many different industrial processes produce residual raw material which is sorted as waste or sold for a cheap price. Organic waste in particular can be of great value if it is processed quickly and correctly.

Examples of promising utilisation cases of raw materials are shell fractions from shellfish, waste from food production, farmed or harvested algae and seaweed, or faeces and feed residues from the aquaculture and livestock.

Key to preserving the value is quick and gentle processing, temperature control, water removal to less than 10%, and preferably combined with heat treatment (kills micro organisms). The result is a marketable, shelf-stable product that has retained nutrients.
