Proven Technology for Profitable and Energy-Efficient Fishmeal Production
Fjell Technology Group delivers complete turnkey fishmeal and fish oil plants, designed to maximize profitability. Our process line covers every step—from raw material handling to final product cooling—with robust, high-performance equipment tailored to your needs.
Key process stages include:
- Pre-heating & Cooking in Fjell’s steam-heated single or double-stage screw cookers
- Pressing using our efficient twin screw press
- Separation via decanters and separators, including oil polishers—or alternatively, 3-phase separation using tricanters with integrated oil polishing
- Evaporation of stick water using either waste heat or MVR evaporators
- Drying of press cake, decanter solids, and concentrate in our patented and unique Fjell Turbo Disc dryer, for superior durability, and performance
- Final processing including milling, cooling, and packaging of the finished meal
Our patented energy-saving design enables theoretical energy consumption as low as 186 kWh per tonne of raw material—setting a new standard for sustainable fishmeal production.
Our customer stories in Fishmeal and fish oil production
Meet our Fishmeal Dryer
- The Fjell Turbo Disc (TD) Dryer is the corner stone of the fishmeal & fish oil plant.
- Unique patented drying technology – no stay bolts and with optimized design for first-class performance giving high product quality.
- Risk for SCC (Stress Corrosion Cracking) is eliminated as welds are not exposed to the process.
- Risk for steam leakage is eliminated as welds do not seal between pressurized and non-pressurized side.
- Improved lateral bending strength of discs with patented claws design that act as reinforcement beams in radial direction. This reduces the risk for stress corrosion cracking in foot welds between the discs.
- Smooth disc surface secures efficient self-cleaning and maximises heat transfer.
Meet our Screw Cookers
- We deliver all the classic sizes of Stord SS type cookers from small units for a few MT raw material per hour to the larger SS160/14 rated for 50 MT per hour.
- The standard cooker SS uses steam as heating medium. Optionally, Fjell can design cookers that reuses the energy and uses hot water as heating medium.
- Fjell designs several versions of Preheaters, Single stage screw cooker, and Double stage screw cooker.
Our cookers are manufactured with a steam heated (up to 10 bar) rotor with hollow flights. The rotor is placed inside a stator with steam jackets. Indirect heat is gently applied to the residual giving full coagulation control and efficiency.
