ПРИМЕНЕНИЕ ОЗОНА ДЛЯ ОБЕЗЗАРАЖИВАНИЯ КОРМОВОГО СЫРЬЯ (ОБЗОР)

The issues of disinfection of raw materials for feed production by the method of ozonation were considered in the review. Ozonation could be a universal method of plant raw materials disinfection in agricultural enterprises and formula-feed plants. A research objective is to generalize and analyze scientific publications devoted to the feed raw materials disinfection by ozone, as well as to clarify information on rational parameters of such type of disinfection and its effect on the quality of feed. Moreover, we assessed the possibility of further use of ozonation in the production process. For the research of the subject, we searched and selected scientific articles published from 2005 to 2020 and conducted a systematic review. Ozonation was found to be an effective method for feed decontamination that destroys pathogenic bacteria and fungi. This method is also used to detoxify feed and control pest insects. Ozonation is not yet widely used in agricultural production and formula-feed industry to ensure the biological safety of feed raw materials. Additional research aimed at improving the efficiency of ozonation by standardization of parameters for its implementation to ensure the broadest possible application of the method under study should be carried out. The development of technical solutions that increase the diffusion of gaseous ozone will significantly increase the safety and preservation of raw materials. Rational values of ozone concentration, processing time, etc., for each type of raw materials, as well as for mycotoxins, pesticides, microorganisms and insects, including different stages of their growth and development, should be defined. Special attention should be also focused on the study of the complex efficiency of ozonation concerning several pathogenic factors.
