ABSTRACT:
A high pressure conditioning system apparatus and control network. A direct fired steam generator supplies a mixture of super-heated steam and oxygen-deficient non-condensable gases to a pressurized conditioner constructed for heating, mositurizing, and conditioning matter including cereals, grains, beans, full fat soybean, barley, and seeds for a selected period of time. The high pressure conditioner is adapted for homogeneous interaction of the direct fired steam, non-condensable gases and the matter to be conditioned. A pressurized resting chamber is used statically steam the conditioned matter. A myriad of chemical changes are advantageously induced by the utilization of high pressures, controlled time, temperature, direct fired steam, moisture content, and the homogeneous interaction thereof. The desirable chemical changes accomplished by the high pressure conditioner include partial denaturization of protein, eliminating or reduction of harmful enzymes and microorganisms, and insolubilizing certain polysaccharides encapsulating the starch in the grains. Such desirable chemical changes lead to better nutritive value of the feed produced. A dryer may also be disposed in flow communication with the system for drying and cooling and rendering stable the conditioned matter for subsequent handling.
