Corn Cob Powder is virtually odor-free, No additives, chemicals or solvents are used in our production process . All products are produced in facilities dedicated only to Corn Cob. Shelf life is indefinite, as long as the material is kept dry . The Corn Cob powder is solely a fibrous, cellulosic product, with 4-5 % protein.,  

Applications :

• Corn Cob use as a fiber sourced in cattle & poultry feed industries. Corn Cob powder (40-60 mesh) is used as a Carrier in Animal health products (Choline cloride 60). Corn Cob is applied directly as a deep litter bedding material for poultry industries because of its high absorbency. Corn Cob use as a filler material in, Agro-chemicals, Veterinary formulations, Vitamin premixes etc. Corn Cob powder is biodegradable, renewable, silica-free and non-carcinogenic, ( pickup load),
• Payment mode: full advance, Supply capacity: 1000 tons per month , Less Material, Less Cost :Due to the maximum absorbance capacity, requiring less material 30% less than sawdust, 65% less than rice hulls, 89% less than hydrated lime. Maximum absorbency Corn Cob Powder is applied directly to the fluid to be stabilized, and allowed to soak for 4-5 times maximum absorbency. 
• Corn Cob powder engineered to provide superior absorption on a wide variety of fluids, including water, oil and diesel fuel. Corn Cob is applied directly as a deep litter bedding material for poultry industries. IF ANY ONE REQUIRED different SIZE OR DIFFERENT PACKAGING WE ARE ABLE TO DO THAT ACCORDING TO THEIR REQUIREMENTS.

Corn stalk has a high cellulose content, so that it is potential to be used as a composition for making alginate-carboxymethyl cellulose beads. Alginate and cellulose are biodegradable, renewable and nonmeltable polymers that have wide applications in various industrial sectors.

Corn stalk powder uses

Corn stalk powder has a wide range of uses, including as livestock feed, biofuel, and a raw material for paper and building materials. Processing corn stalks into powder is a method of valorizing agricultural waste into high-value products

Agricultural applications

Animal feed

• Feed pellets: Dried and pulverized corn stalks can be pressed into pellets to create feed for cattle, sheep, and other livestock. The pelletization process increases palatability and can kill pathogens.
• Supplementation: Corn stalk powder can be added to cattle rations as a low-cost source of fiber. To increase digestibility and nutritional value, it can be treated with chemicals like calcium oxide or urea before being pelleted.

Soil amendment and fertilizer  

• Organic fertilizer: Corn stalks can be fermented with microbial agents to create organic fertilizers. Applying these biofertilizers can enrich soil with vital nutrients such as nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus
• Mulch and compost: Chipped or powdered corn stalks can be used as a garden mulch to cover the soil and retain moisture. When added to compost, they help create a nutrient-rich soil amendment.
• Soil reclamation: Research shows that applying corn stalk biochar can improve the quality of hostile soils by increasing organic carbon, available nutrients, and water permeability.   

Industrial and material production

Biofuels

• Ethanol: The high cellulose content of corn stalk powder makes it a suitable raw material for producing bioethanol, a cleaner-burning fuel alternative.
• Biomass pellets: Torrefied corn stalk pellets can be used as a solid fuel source to replace fossil fuels like coal. These pellets have a high density, which improves their energy efficiency, storage, and transportation.
• Bio-asphalt and bio-oil: Through processes like hydrothermal carbonization, corn stalk-derived hydrochar can be used as a modifier in asphalt pavement, offering improved performance and longevity. Bio-oil can also be produced via liquefaction.

Building and composite materials  

• Reinforcing fiber: As a lignocellulosic material, corn stalk powder can be used as a filler or reinforcing agent in composites, such as low-density polyethylene (LDPE).
• Cement replacement: Cornstalk ash, a product of controlled burning, can be used as a partial cement replacement in concrete production.
• Fiberboard and particleboard: The fibrous components of corn stalks can be processed into fiberboard and particleboard, offering a use for waste material.

Paper and cellulose products

• Pulp and paper: Corn stalks contain high levels of cellulose and low levels of lignin, making them a suitable non-wood source for papermaking. Fiber from the stalk is comparable in quality to hardwood.  
• Cellulose composites: Cellulose extracted from corn stalk powder can be used as a raw material for various industrial applications, including the creation of biodegradable products. 

Environmental remediation

• Biosorbent: Dried corn stalk powder can function as a biosorbent to remove pollutants, such as heavy metals and radioactive iodine, from wastewater. Its chemical properties allow it to bind to contaminants through processes like ion-exchange.
• Animal bedding: Ground corn stalks can serve as an absorbent and natural bedding material for livestock, especially when baled
