Abstract: By substituting biomass with a surface-active substance in a fermentation broth containing amino acid before spray-drying, granulated animal feed additives with improved product specifications were obtained.

Abstract: Process for fluidized bed granulation of amino acid-containing fermentation broths comprising the steps Introduction of a drying gas with a temperature of 100° C.-450° C. into the fluidized bed granulation chamber Spraying of the amino acid-containing fermentation broth into the fluidized bed granulation chamber Discharge of the granules granulated in the fluidized bed granulation chamber with the drying gas stream, and drying of the discharged granules in a fluidized bed drying step, wherein the discharged granulated granules are a granule mixture with various particle sizes and contains an oversize fraction, wherein the oversize comprises the particle sizes which lie above a desired particle size, an wherein the oversize fraction is removed from the discharged granule mixture and then comminuted and the comminuted oversize and the granule mixture from which the oversize was separated are fed into the fluidized bed drying step.

Abstract: The invention relates to a granular fermentation-broth-based feed additive, comprising an L-amino acid selected from the group consisting of L-lysine, L-methionine, L-threonine, L-tryptophan, L-valine or mixtures of these, suitable for the preparation of feeds for animals kept in aquaculture, where the content of the L-amino acid or the mixtures thereof amount to 20% by weight of the total composition of the granular feed additive; where at least 70% by weight of the particles have a particle diameter of from >63 ?m to <300 ?m, where the biomass content amounts to ?5% by weight and where the surface of the particles is fully or partially coated with an edible oil, wherein the L-amino acid is L-lysine, is present as a sulphate salt and the molar ratio of sulphate to L-lysine amounts to at least 0.5.

Abstract: Carbon black with a content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons measured by the 22 PAH method of less than 5 ppm and an STSA surface area of <90 m2/g. The carbon black is prepared by treating the starting carbon black with electromagnetic radiation. The carbon black can be used in rubber, plastics, printing inks, liquid inks, inkjet inks, toners, coating materials, paints, adhesives, batteries, pastes, paper, fuel cells, bitumen, concrete and other building materials.
