Tuna is an important food and sports fish, and also the most commercially valuable fish in the world. Tuna meat is low in fat and calories, rich in high-quality protein, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and other nutrients that balance the body's needs. But the tuna heads and bones are not easily consumed directly, so how to deal with them?
Not long ago, an Australian client consulted us about tuna shredder equipment, which processes tuna heads and bones with a processing capacity of 30TPH. Although this capacity sounds quite large, after repeated confirmation with the customer, these fish heads and bones will be cooked first, and the bones are softer and more brittle, making them relatively easy to shred. The feeding size is tuna heads ≤250mm, tuna bones ≤600mm, and discharge size is about 50mm.
After considering these parameters, we have recommended a suitable model of double shaft shearing shredder to the customer. We fully meet the customer's disposal requirements and have communicated with them in both technical and commercial aspects. We are currently waiting for the customer's final decision.
The double shaft shredder has the characteristics of low speed and high torque. The movable cutters are made of imported high-alloyed steel CrNiMo material and processed by high-precision machine tools, with higher mechanical performance, better toughness and wear resistance, and a significantly extended service life. After the cutters are worn, they can be repaired by multiple welding operations, saving usage costs.
So you may ask: What is the final purpose for customers to shred the tuna heads and bones?
Actually, it is very useful. The shredded tuna heads and bones can be used to make fish soup, fish bone soup, or fish soup bottom. These parts usually contain rich fish residues and nutrients in bones, such as collagen and calcium, so they can be used to make soup bottoms after shredding, providing a richer taste and flavor for the soup.
In addition, they can also be used as fertilizers for agriculture, or for the production of animal feed and other purposes. In some places, people may also ferment these parts to make fish fertilizer or other organic fertilizers.
