ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for pelleting particulate animal feed in accordance with a feed pelleting system in which the feed is fed from a bin through a mixer/conditioner, where selected amounts of heat and moisture are added to the feed, and into a pellet producing machine, wherein in accordance with the system the feed is heated by heating the mixer/conditioner using a closed circuit live steam system that returns to the heat source the condensate form by heating the mixer/conditioner, and wherein the moisture is added to the feed as it passes through the mixer/conditioner by inserting hot water at a temperature that approximates but is below that causing vaporization of the insert water, with the insert water being heated by a closed circuit live steam system that returns to the heat source the condensate formed by heating the insert water.
