STATISTICAL PROCESS ANALYSIS IN BROILER FEED FORMULATION

Statistical analysis of broiler feed production was done with data obtained in an industrial plant in an attempt to characterise the causes of variations in feed composition. Analysis of the experimental data has shown that the feed conversion ratio (FCR) for broilers was between 1.8 and 2.5. This large range of observations were thought to be caused by the wide range of variations in the composition of the feeds. The major factor contributing to the variance of the feed compositions was the variance of the raw materials. It was found that the proteins and moisture were distributed normally in most raw materials and feeds. Water molecules can diffuse in the raw materials and the feeds to make the whole batch uniform, On the other hand, the protein containing fractions tend to segregate due to density differences. Therefore, the moisture content of the raw materials tend to vary in a smaller range than those of the proteins. Mixing the feeds for three minutes or longer was sufficient to achieve suitable homogeneity, but controlling the range of the individual raw materials is recommended for further improvement of the process capability indices.

The interface position and centre concentration during freezing of carrot juice in cylindrical containers
Mahmutoglu, T; Esin, A (Wiley, 1996-08-01)
Finite difference modelling, incorporating a variable space network approximation, was used to study the freezing of carrot juice in cylindrical containers. Ambient temperatures ranged from -6.5 to -14.2 degrees C. The problem was formulated as a moving boundary to find the position of the hypothetical solid-liquid interface and the concentration at the centre. Experimental results obtained for the freezing of carrot juice were satisfactorily represented by the variable space network approximation technique...
Improvement of enzymatic xylooligosaccharides production by the co-utilization of xylans from different origins
Kiran, Esra Uckun; AKPINAR, ÖZLEM; Bakir, Ufuk (Elsevier BV, 2013-10-01)
This study aimed to improve XOs production by enzymatic hydrolysis of xylans from various lignocellulosic waste biomasses namely corn cob, cotton and sunflower stalks, rice hull, wheat straw by using two commercial xylanase preparations, Shearzyme 500L and Veron 191. Shearzyme 500L showed better xylan hydrolysis capacity with high amount of xylose liberation. Xylobiose was the main hydrolysis product in each case. Even though the enzymatic hydrolyses using Shearzyme 500L resulted higher reducing sugar produ...
Simultaneous dissolution and uptake of nutrients in microalgal treatment of the secondarily treated digestate
Ulgudur, Nilufer; Bayramoğlu, Tuba Hande; Demirer, Goksel N. (Elsevier BV, 2019-11-01)
Anaerobic digestion processes result in large volumes of digestates which still require the development of elaborate and viable management options to improve the sustainability of these processes. Coupling of secondary anaerobic treatment with a microalgal nutrient removal process may serve benefits such as residual biogas and associated greenhouse gas capture from the digestate content, microalgal biomass build-up and its further valorization. This study investigated the applicability a microalgal nutrient...
Variation in cold tolerance in F6 durum wheat [ Triticum turgidum (L.) Tell. convar. durum (Desf.) Mackey] RILs and the relationships of cold tolerance with some quality parameters and genetic markers
Göçmen Taşkln, Belgin; Özbek, Özlem; Keskin San, Sibel; Eser, Vehbi; Nachit, Miloudi Mikael; Kaya, Zeki (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2020-03-01)
Low temperature is one of the critical factors for determining agricultural production. Therefore, the main objective was to develop the durum wheat lines, which are tolerant to cold particularly in Central Anatolia. The recombinant inbred lines (RILs) (141) derived from F-6 progeny of durum wheat, developed from Kunduru-1149 (female parent) and Cham-1 (male parent) cross, were characterized in terms of their cold tolerance both in the field and under controlled (in growth chamber) conditions. A 0-9 scale w...
Production and characterisation of gluten-free chestnut sourdough breads
DEMIRKESEN, I.; PUCHULU-CAMPANELLA, E.; Kelkar, S.; Campanella, O. H.; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil (Codon Publications, 2016-01-01)
The impact of sourdough amount (20, 40 and 60%) on the rheological behaviour of gluten-free chestnut-rice dough formulations and quality parameters (pH, total titratable acidity, firmness, volume and crumb microstructure) of the corresponding breads was studied. The addition of sourdough led to decreases in complex modulus indicating a softening of the dough samples. Higher levels of sourdough addition had a detrimental effect on the volume and texture of breads. X-ray micro computed tomograph images showed...
