SANOVO TECHNOLOGY PROCESS

Upcycle Animal By-Products into Valuable Protein Ingredients

Convert waste and liquid side streams from meat processing into stable, high-value powder ingredients for feed, pet food, and specialty nutrition markets.

Flexible Spray Drying Solutions for Animal Protein Powder

Meat processing generates large volumes of animal by-products and liquid side streams such as blood, bones, organs, and process residues.

Traditionally, many of these streams are used in low-value applications or treated as waste. Today, however, rising pressure on sustainability, resource efficiency, and profitability is driving processors to recover more value from every part of the raw material.

With the right processing technology, these streams can be converted into stable, functional protein powders used across feed, pet food, and specialty nutrition markets.

Typical Raw Materials

Animal waste and side stream materials
from meat processing can be transformed into valuable ingredient powders.

Typical raw materials include:

  • Blood Plasma
  • Blood hemoglobin
  • Bone Broth
  • Meat waste
  • Process liquids from rendering

Through controlled processing and spray drying with horizontal spray dryers or horizontal box spray dryers, these materials can be converted into stable, high-value protein and ingredient powders like hydrolized meat flavors, collagen and gelatin.

Unlock the Value of Animal By-products

Meat processors and ingredient producers handle large volumes of animal by-products and liquid side streams generated during slaughter and processing.

Instead of being treated as waste or used in low-value applications, these materials contain valuable proteins and nutrients that can be recovered and transformed into functional ingredients.

Producers are increasingly looking for ways to:

  • Reduce waste volumes and disposal costs
  • Recover valuable proteins and nutrients from side streams 
  • Improve resource efficiency and sustainability performance 
  • Create new revenue streams from existing raw materials

The key challenge is converting perishable liquid by-products into stable, safe, and market-ready ingredients without disrupting existing operations.

The Challenge of Side-Stream Valorization

Processing animal by-products presents several operational challenges.

Producers must:

  • Manage short shelf life and food safety risks of liquid by-products
  • Handle large and fluctuating volumes of side streams
  • Establish reliable processing infrastructure for powder production
  • Ensure consistent product quality and safety
  • Implement new processing lines without disrupting existing operations

To unlock the full value of these materials, producers need a solution that transforms side streams into stable ingredients, efficiently and at scale.

Spray Drying Technology for Animal By-Products

Horizontal box spray drying technology provides an efficient way to convert liquid animal side streams into functional powder ingredients.

SANOVO TECHNOLOGY PROCESS’s spray drying solutions transform liquids such as separated blood, plasma, or extracted broths into stable, free-flowing powders.

Key advantages of horizontal spray dryers, including horizontal box spray dryers:

✔ Efficient conversion of liquid by-products into protein powders
✔ Gentle drying that preserves nutritional and functional properties
✔ Compact dryer footprint enabling integration into existing facilities
✔ Energy-efficient evaporation performance
✔ Proven technology for safe and reliable powder production

The system can support the production of ingredients such as:

  • Hemoglobin powders
  • Plasma powders
  • Broth and flavor powders

From Side Streams to Market-Ready Ingredients

By integrating spray drying into the processing line, meat processors can convert perishable liquid streams into shelf-stable powder ingredients.
This enables producers to:

  • Extend shelf life of recovered proteins
  • Improve safety and handling of by-products
  • Produce ingredients for pet food, feed, and specialty nutrition markets
  • Reduce waste volumes and environmental impact
  • Create new revenue streams from existing raw materials

Instead of treating side streams as waste, they become valuable functional ingredients.
