Current Status of Shrimp Feed Pellet Production in Ecuador
As major shrimp farming country, Ecuador is the largest shrimp producer in Latin America, and its shrimp production accounts for more than half of the shrimp production in the Americas. It is also the world’s second largest white shrimp exporter.
Ecuador has tropical climate and shrimp can be raised all year round. The superior natural conditions have created a suitable environment for aquaculture industry, making fisheries an important source of economic support for Ecuador. At the same time, fisheries are also an important source of employment in Ecuador.
Shrimp feed pellet is an important factor affecting shrimp farming. The quality of shrimp feed pellet directly affects the growth and yield of shrimp. Therefore, with the emergence of more and more industrial shrimp farming plants, the quality of shrimp feed is particularly important.
In recent years, a number of world-renowned feed manufacturers have begun to invest in the construction of shrimp feed production plants in Ecuador, effectively promoting the development of Ecuador’s shrimp farming industry.
In the process of rapid improvement in the quality and output of shrimp feed pellet in Ecuador, as world-renowned feed production equipment manufacturer, according to the current situation of shrimp farming in Ecuador, we actively provide shrimp feed production equipment and shrimp feed production lines to support shrimp farming in Ecuador.
RICHI MACHINERY
RICHI can provide high-quality shrimp feed pellet machine to Ecuador
More than 95% of Ecuador’s aquaculture is marine shrimp, followed by tilapia. Other species, such as freshwater fish and crustaceans, are only farmed on small scale.
According to the aquaculture characteristics of Ecuador, RICHI can provide shrimp feed extruder and shrimp feed pelletizer to produce shrimp feed pellet.
shrimp feed extruder
Shrimp feed extruder is the main equipment needed when using extrusion process to produce shrimp feed pellet. RICHI can provide single screw shrimp feed extruder and twin screw shrimp feed extruder to process high protein and high fat content raw materials, suitable for all kinds of small, medium and large shrimp feed mill.
shrimp feed pelletizer
Shrimp feed pelletizer is the main equipment needed when using the pelletizing process to produce shrimp feed pellet. RICHI developed shrimp feed pelletizer with three-layer modulator based on the characteristics of shrimp feed pellet, which can effectively extend the modulation time, improve the modulation effect, increase the gelatinization and maturity of raw materials, and produce high-quality shrimp feed pellets.

5 t/h shrimp feed production line in Ecuador
As feed pellet production equipment manufacturer, RICHI has shipped several feed pellet production equipments and feed pellet production lines to Ecuador. This 5 ton per hour shrimp feed pellet production line is a turnkey feed pellet production project that we built in Ecuador.
This shrimp feed pellet production project was invested and built in Ecuador by a world-renowned feed manufacturer. After comparing various options, the feed manufacturer decided to cooperate with us to build this shrimp feed pellet mill, aiming to develop the Ecuadorian shrimp feed pellet market and improve the quality of Ecuadorian shrimp feed pellet.
This shrimp feed pellet production line uses extrusion technology to produce shrimp feed pellet, which can accurately control the length and sedimentation of shrimp feed pellet and produce shrimp feed pellet with high protein and high fat content.
The whole shrimp feed pellet production line consists of four main sections: raw material receiving and first crushing section – first mixing and second crushing section – second mixing, extrusion and drying section – screening, cooling and packing section
The introduction of each section is as follows:
●
Receiving of raw materials and first crushing stage
The removal of impurities and the first crushing of raw materials is a process for processing raw materials that account for a relatively large proportion of shrimp feed pellet formula. After this stage, what is obtained is powdered material of various raw materials.
●
First mixing and second crushing stage
The crushed raw materials are batched and mixed evenly before entering the ultrafine grinder for a second crushing. The second crushing can make the raw materials crushed to a fineness of more than 60 meshes.
●
Second mixing, extrusion and drying process
The crushed raw materials are evenly mixed with premixes, oils, vitamins, etc., and then sent to the shrimp feed extruder. The shrimp feed pellet coming out of the feed extruder are then dried.
●
Screening, cooling and packing section
The qualified shrimp feed pellets are screened out using a rotary grading screen, and then cooled and packed. The feed mill mainly cooperates with farms, so it can be packed according to the needs of the farms.
Some equipments needed for 5 t/h Shrimp feed production line
All the equipment used in the shrimp feed pellet production line was provided by us. Since this feed production project is a turnkey shrimp feed production project, the design of the shrimp feed production line, the construction of the plant, the production of shrimp feed production equipment, the installation of the shrimp feed production line, and after-sales service were all completed by RICHI.
For this shrimp feed production project, we have detailed shrimp feed production line drawings, plant building drawings, production lists, delivery lists, installation drawings and so on.
The following are some of the equipment used in the four main sections of the shrimp feed production line. In addition to these equipment, there are also some auxiliary equipment and accessories such as buffer bins and tees:
