METHOD OF MANUFACTURING ANIMAL FEED, AND PARTICULARLY TDE-DECONTAMINATED ANIMAL FEED

Abstract A method of producing an animal feed that is free from transmittable degenerative encephalopathies is provided. Central to the method is alkali treatment of animal material at a pH of at least 8.5 under temperature conditions below 100degreeC at atmospheric pressure. This results in hydrolysis of proteins present and therefore, destroys any prions present in the feed. This method provides a decontaminated animal feed produced under relatively low temperature and pressure conditions that are achievable in standard animal carcass rendering facilities. Further, the material produced by the provided method may be used as fertilizer.
