ABSTRACT:
A feed tank portion (11) of a conventional shrimp processing apparatus is divided into forward (35) and rear (33) sections by an intermediate baffle (31), which extends across the full width of the feed tank (11). The baffle (31) is configured so that the rear tank section (33) can function as a feed tank for raw shrimp for the processing apparatus. A feed belt (17) moves the raw shrimp out of the rear tank section (33) to a cooker (23). The warm condensate liquid from the cooker (23) and water at ambient temperature from the sprinklers (27) at the upper end of the feed belt (17) runs off into the forward tank section (35). The water in the rear tank section (33) is continuously recirculated and maintained at a desired low temperature, with a specific concentration of chemicals, such as phosphate, if desired.
