Application & Verification

ChemGen has designed a reliable spray application system for the liquid product which it installs in feed mills and thereafter regularly services and maintains. ChemGen has successfully applied Hemicell® from several locations in the feed production process, including at the pellet die, at the exit of the cooler, in augers, and in fat roto-coaters. Uniform application of Hemicell® is verified and maintained by regular sampling and analysis. ChemGen's application system is designed around a rugged and precise diaphragm metering pump and occupies only 5 ft3 of space in the feed mill. This pump meters the amount of Hemicell® concentrate withdrawn from the drum and a static mixer is used to mix the pumped concentrate with water. This solution is then applied to the feed. About one quart of the solution is applied to a ton of feed, adding only 0.1% to 0.2% moisture to the feed. Hemicell® concentrate has a shelf-life of more than six months under typical warehouse/field conditions.
