Distillers grain, a by-product of ethanol and alcohol production, is rich in nutrients and widely used as livestock feed. However, due to its high moisture content, fresh distillers grain is prone to spoilage and difficult to store or transport. The distillers grain dryer has emerged as a pivotal technology in addressing these challenges, enabling efficient processing and value enhancement.

  Fresh distillers grain typically contains 60–70% moisture. This high water content creates issues like microbial growth, nutrient loss, and difficulties in transportation. Moreover, wet distillers grain has a short shelf life, limiting its usability in regions far from production facilities. Effective drying is essential to improve its stability and extend its shelf life.

  Distillers grain dryer is a specialized machine designed to reduce the moisture content of wet distillers grain to less than 10–12%, making it more durable and easier to store or transport. Drying of distillers grains preserves essential proteins, fibers and minerals, ensuring the feed retains its nutritional value. Dried distillers grains are lighter and more compact, reducing transportation costs.

  The distillers grain dryer is integral to modern distillers grain processing. Its ability to enhance feed quality, reduce waste, and improve economic viability has made it indispensable in ethanol and alcohol production industries. If you are interested in the equipment, please contact us.
