METHOD TO ENHANCE GRAIN PROCESSING AND DIGESTIBILITY

摘要

A method for processing grains, crop residues, agricultural waste materials, processing waste materials, or mixtures thereof, is provided that includes using a rotary biomass dryer to process the materials and subjecting them to a steam explosion in order to form a processed material that exhibits an increase in porosity and/or absorption potential.
