Fish Rendering Systems

ANCO-EAGLIN, INC.

Greensboro, North Carolina
Rendering System

The most effective and low cost rendering system is the ANCO batch system that

utilizes a model 600 series cooker. Material is crushed, dried, and pressed.

Depending on the fish species, crushing or pressing may not be required thereby simplifying the process even more.

For higher production, species specific, or optimum meal quality a customer may

consider the ANCO Continuous Drying System. This mechanical dewatering

rendering system incorporates the model 1600 series cooker, thus allowing a

major portion of the water to be separated by mechanical energy rather than

thermal energy. To achieve the correct consistency to press raw fish, the product

must be ground and preheated to precise conditions. The press water, which

holds the largest percentage of fat, is pumped through a three-phase separator,

which divides fat, solid and water parts. Depending on the water volume and the

suspended solids, the centrifuge water phase may be further concentrated, thus

the fat phase may require additional solid separation. Consult with an A-E engineer

for the best options.

ANCO-EAGLIN, Inc. is a leading

manufacturer of industrial processing equipment

for rendering food, chemical, and associated

industries. ANCO has provided equipment and

service in these related industries since 1902.

Current technological expertise and 100 years

of proven reliability have made ANCO the

industry’s number one source for batch and

continuous processing equipment.

As one of the most reliable and dependable

names in the industry, ANCO was acquired in

1993 and ANCO-EAGLIN was established. At

our new facility in Greensboro, North Carolina,

new equipment and innovative processes have

been introduced to numerous clients worldwide.

Emphasis is placed on “know how” and “customer

service” to a growing domestic and international

customer base. To learn more about

Designed in a variety of sizes for large or small rendering 

capacity. Originally developed for the red meat industry, 

the 1045 Crusher can be specified for coarse grinding of whole fish or 

fine grinding as required for “Low Temp” rendering systems. The cutting 

action of the Crusher is enhanced harden tool steel for extended product life.

This unit provides heating of raw fish meal prior to pressing. Heat is provided by

a combination of indirect and direct steam heat sources. The main vessel

is built and jacketed to ASME code allowing a high degree of flexibility.

A PLC control loop allows the product rate and heating temperature to

vary for specific industry applications.

The 3100 Screw Press is a major development for 

fish rendering systems. The screw design allows a firm 

and precise pressure to be applied to the preheated fishmeal. The 

heavy-duty flights are controlled by a VFD drive that allows an exact pressure to be applied

to the protein meal for a more efficient means of removing moisture and fat.

ANCO offers a large selection of drying equipment from the 600-12 Batch to the 

1600 Continuous Dryer. Both the 600-12 and the 1600 are steam-heated vessels 

built to ASME specifications. Rugged construction is a necessity for these drying 

applications. Designed and cast for durability of the paddles, door assemblies and 

bearing housings.

CONTINUOUS 
AUTOMA AUTOMATION & TION &

ELECTRICAL CONTROL ELECTRICAL CONTROL At our new manufacturing facility in Greensboro, North

Carolina, we stock over a half million dollars of replacement

parts for related ANCO®

equipment. ANCO-EAGLIN

is committed to providing

our customers with the

highest quality of equipment

and services. Original

ANCO stock parts are

essential in maintaining

peak performance

operations.

TRANSFER PUMP TRANSFER PUMP

The 1208 Pump provides a great deal of flexibility in transferring

product to the rendering operation and within the plant. The

1208 is a closed transfer system, thus alleviating the use

of numerous conveyors that can leak and require

maintenance. The closed vessel design vastly

reduces odors while providing greater flexibility for

plant design. As with all ANCO

equipment the 1208 pumps

are ruggedly built and can be

incorporated with full

automation. 

ODOR CONTROL ODOR CONTROL

Today’s fish rendering plants are not complete 

without addressing the needs of odor

control. ANCO-EAGLIN offers a series of

Venturi Odor Control Systems. Designed

for specific industry applications, the 1320

Packed Bed Scrubber and the 1015

Afterburner utilize direct contact water for

a more affordable process. For large air

volumes the 1320 Packed Bed Scrubber

offers the best odor removal capacity

available. The 1015 Afterburner 

is specific for low air volumes and high

organic compounds.

ANCO-EAGLIN offers a full range of products incorporating innovative ideas and common sense solutions;

ANCO-EAGLIN can provide the “Know How” for your particular needs. We would appreciate the opportunity to

share our experience and product technology in the following areas:

 Tallow Press Expellers  Screening  Continuous Hydrolyzers

 Coagulating  Pressure Coded Vessels  Grinding/ Milling Equipment

 Condensing Systems  Waste Heat Recovery

SPSPARE P ARE PARARTSTS

The major benefit in having ANCO-EAGLIN develop your

automation and electrical control is single source 

responsibility. By developing the best 

controls, you are provided with a higher

degree of product quality while 

minimizing system downtime. Controls 

can be simple, analog, or state of the 

art PLC with touch screen technology.

because compliance is significantly affected by many factors over which A-E has little control (such as 

installation, plant lay-out, building acoustics, materials processed, processing procedures and supervision and 

training of employees), A-E does not represent or warrant that equipment sold by it complies with OSHA or 

any like state or local law or regulation, and the cost of modifications and responsibility for compliance are 

User’s responsibility.

GENERAL SUBJECT : ANCO-Eaglin costs for 25 MT/day salmon waste byproducts recovery plant 

 

TOPICS DISCUSSED AND ACTION TAKEN 

ERG and EPA arranged to talk to Rick Eaglin about the estimated costs for a 25 MT/day salmon waste 

byproducts recovery plant that he provided to Betsy Bicknell on Feb 15, 2011. The purpose of the call was to 

ensure we understood the scope of his costs, what was included and what was not. We also wanted to discuss 

how to scale the costs and Rick’s ideas methods for transferring waste to the byproducts plant. 

(note: in the discussion below, coded numbers, e.g., DM-109, refer to tag numbers on the Eaglin spreadsheet 

and equipment layout drawing.) 

- Rick confirmed that the capacity for the costed plant is 25 MT (not U.S. tons) 

- Rick noted that this design, layout, and cost estimate are based on work for an un-named client. 

- This design assumes that waste arrives at the plant in totes and that hard waste (heads, frames) is 

separated from soft waste (guts and slime). 

- Dumped waste is conveyed past a metal detector before it is ground (GR-106). 

- Ground waste is then heated before entering the dewatering screen. Solids from the screen are 

discharged to drying and then to the meal screen. Liquids (water and oil) are discharged to a centrifuge 

for separation. The oil fraction is collected and sent to a holding tank. 

- After the meal screen, meal is dispensed into 1-ton “super sacks” for shipment. This was the packaging 

system requested by the client. 

- The costed design includes a 20,000 cfm wet packed bed scrubber (SR 600) to control dust and odor. 

The “hot processing area” on the diagram as well as the meal bagging and grinding area would be 

vented to the scrubber. Abut 1⁄4 of the airflow to the scrubber would be from the meal area and 3⁄4 from 

the hot processing area. 

- The costed design includes a steam boiler (SB 203) capable of generating 1900 lb/hr steam. Rick said 

this was a natural gas-fired boiler, but the costs for diesel-fueled boilers are similar. (note, most areas in 

AK don’t have access to natural gas and they would typically use diesel fuel). 

- The design does not include a diesel storage tank. We would need to add a diesel storage tank to the 

design. 

- The costs and design don’t include evaluating the water available to feed to the boiler, or the boiler 

feedwater conditioning system and supplies. 

- The estimated costs do not include installation. Rick noted that within the contiguous U.S. pipefitter 

costs can vary from $20/hr in NC to $93/hr in Detroit. (we would need Alaska costs) 
Page 2 of 3 

- Installation labor will require riggers, pipefitters, and electricians. Rick estimated 2 – 3 trades, for 3-4 

months to install the equipment. 

- Costs also do not include on site wiring and piping. 

- Rick noted that the process generates considerable amount of condensate that must be discharged as 

wastewater. He estimated 1 lb condensate/lb raw feed .This represents the moisture from the fish waste 

that is evaporated from the drier (DR-203) and condensed in an air-cooled condenser. 

- The condensate may have a BOD5 of up to 1,000 mg/L 

- The costed design does not include wastewater treatment1

. 

- The fresher the waste, the less BOD in the wastewater. The longer the seafood waste sits around in the 

wastewater, the more material dissolves in the water. 

- The costed design includes a standard PLC control system (ANCO PLC on the cost spreadsheet). The 

control system requires field wiring. 

- The designed plant includes a shell and tube evaporator (indirect cooling) for the stickwater separated 

from the fish waste in the tricanter. The evaporator has no contact cooling water. 

- Labor required to operate the plant could include: 

o Boiler engineer (depending on local requirements, this may be one person dedicated to operating 

the boiler, or one operator licensed to operate the boiler who has other responsibilities, e.g., 

maintenance) 

o Raw materials receiving operator/laborer 

o Hot processing operator 

o Meal grinding operator 

o Maintenance 

o QC technician 

o Manager 

- The overall footprint for the building is approximately 90’ x 120’. This assumes a stand-alone operation, 

not integrated with an existing seafood processing plant. 

- The maintenance shop would need equipment (tools, etc) that are not included in this cost. Because of 

the remote locations, the AK facilities will likely need more on-site equipment and supplies than 

facilities in cities in the contiguous U.S., for example. 

- CIP system, means “Clean-in-place.” It is a series of tanks and pumps with dosing and pH control used 

to run sequences of washwater, caustic, and rinsewater through the food processing equipment. It is 

possible that the CIP system used for a seafood processing plant could be used for the byproducts plant. 

However, Rick thinks it is not likely that the CIP system at the processing plant could be extended to the 

new plant. At any rate, the Eaglin cost does not include the CIP system. 

- For byproducts plants integrated with an existing seafood processing plant, instead of transferring waste 

in totes and using a tote dumper, the facility could pump the waste or use a conveyor. 

o For a 10 to 15 foot straight run, Rick would suggest a conveyor 

o For a run more than 15 feet and/or complicated geometry, Rick would select a pump 

o Rick noted that ANCO has a vane pump (type of positive displacement pump) is used for fish 

parts 

- Rick noted that the most expensive single item in the plant is the drier, at about $500,000 

- After the drier, the centrifuges are the most expensive individual items 

 1

 40 CFR 408.155, NSPS for Subpart O, fish meal processing, are: 

Max for any 1 day 30 day avg 

BOD5 6.7 kg/MT seafood 3.8 

TSS 3.7 1.5 

O&G 1.4 0.76 

(note these are kg/MT seafood, not MT waste) 
Page 3 of 3 

- Rick suggested the following “rules of thumb” for scaling these costs: 

o To scale up for plants up to two times the costed plant (i.e., for up to 50 MT/day for this plant) 

 C1 = cost one; C2 = cost two 

 S1 = size one; S2 = size two 

 C2 = 0.75*(S2/S1)*C1

o To scale down, would not expect costs to be linear. Rick recalled scaling a 20 tpd plant to 10 tpd, 

and the savings was less than $250,000 

- Rick noted that equipment is available for a 15 MT/day plant but not smaller. 

- Rick noted that the costed plant could run at 24 hr/day for 7 days/week during peak processing times 

- The plant could also be operated for a few hours per day during low processing times 

- Rick noted that there is no right pump for every application. Pump selection depends on what is to be 

pumped (e.g., whole fish/heads/parts) over what distance 

- Once fish is ground, use “load” pumps, or progressive cavity, depends on the material. 

- Pumps appropriate for transferring fish waste raw material for this plant would likely cost $27,000 to 

$28,000. 

- Rick explained his calculation of KW from the equipment rated HP was 

KW = HP * 0.7457*0.61 

o 0.7457 converts HP to KW 

o 0.61 is an “efficiency” factor 

o Allows estimation of electricity cost per hour of operation (with known $/KWh) 

- Rick noted he is working on another seafood byproduct project. When that project is completed, in 4-5 

months, he will be able to share the design data with the public. 

- Rick noted that he is working on a meal plant in Louisiana 

- Rick described an application used by tilapia producers in Honduras. The fish meal produced from 

tilapia processing waste is used for poultry feed and sells for about $500/ton.

For fish oil plants equipment included would be: grinder, pumps, buffer

special decanter/separator tools, engineering 

For the small fish meal oil/meal plant take the above equipment and add

thanks, Vlad 

could you provide a list of the equipment that would be included? 

 

Also, I'm guessing these estimates don't include shipping. Could you 

tell me rough weights and locations from which the units would need to 

be shipped?

As promised-below are rough budget numbers for capital equipment only 

for Westfalia for production lines sizes requested. 

Remember-this is just for the equipment/engineering. The end user will 

need to install it, etc 

Up to 3 U.S. ton/hour combined fish oil/fish meal plant------ $900K-$1.3

1 U.S. ton/hour fish oil plant- $400K-600K 

5 U.S. ton/hour fish oil plant- $550K-700K 

10 U.S. ton/hour fish oil plant- $700K-1.2M

Vlad I'm glad we talked this afternoon. I look forward to receiving 

information from you by January 7. As we discussed, I'm looking for 

"generic" quotes for package seafood byproducts plants. We discussed 

 

3 U.S. ton/hour combined fish oil/fish meal plant 

 

1 U.S. ton/hour fish oil plant 

5 U.S. ton/hour fish oil plant 

10 U.S. ton/hour fish oil plant 
 

You will provide estimates for the equipment and specifications, 

including power requirements and other installation requirements. 

 

I look forward to hearing from you next month. 

 

Happy Holidays, 

Betsy
