A Midwest meat processing plant lost tallow through excess fat in stick water, with more than seven percent fat returned to treatment systems. The case study describes how adding a lactic acid step and changing separation helped the plant meet the two percent free fatty acid spec for inedible tallow.
This is a plant-level processing case with no new market cause, so it has little direct effect on feed or commodity prices.
