  • Process for the preparation of aqueous sodium methioninate solutions and use of those solutions in the production of a granulate
    Patent number: 6126972
    Abstract: A process for the preparation of aqueous sodium methioninate solutions having a low sodium carbonate content from the crude hydrolysis mixtures obtained in the hydrolysis of 5-(.beta.-methylmercaptoethyl)-hydantoin with from 1.1 to 6 equivalents of sodium hydroxide and/or sodium carbonate, by separating off sodium carbonate monohydrate while heating, and granulates subsequently prepared from those solutions by various processes.

  • Animal feed additive based on fermentation broth, a process for its production and its use
    Patent number: 5622710
    Abstract: An animal feed additive comprising stable pellets is produced by pelletizing from a fermentation broth containing an animal feed additive with at least 33% by weight of the fermentation products present. The pellets can be produced particularly effectively by pelletizing providing they are built up from at least 30% by weight of fine particles of which at least 70% by weight are smaller than 100 .mu.m in size. The biomass may be completely present, partly present or not present at all in the pellets.

  • Animal feed supplement based on a fermentation broth amino acid, a process for its production and its use
    Patent number: 5431933
    Abstract: An animal feed supplement and processes for its production which provide an inexpensive, not excessively hygroscopic or sticky supplement amino acid whose content should be standardizable. The animal feed supplement is based on a fermentation broth and contains the predominant proportion of its contents, optionally with the exclusion of part of the biomass. The biomass is preferably present in an amount of at most 10% by weight in the dry state. Proteins are preferably present in a maximum amount of 10% by weight. For the production, the sugar content is adjusted to a maximum of 4 g/l during fermentation, at least towards the end thereof, and at least part of the biomass is optionally removed during the working up.
