Dried egg powder can be stored and transported at room temperatures. It is quite stable and has long shelf life. Themanufacture of egg powder is an important segment of egg consumption. There is enough scope of an egg powder manufacturing plant, with a suitable capacity. 2.0 PRODUCT 2.1 Applications Egg powder is one of the most common products in poultry industry in the country. Attempts have been made to prepare egg pudding also but this product has not yet been accepted by the consumers, whereas demand for eggpowder is increasing year after year. This project can be set up in UP, WB, Maharashtra and AP. The preferred location is Maharashtra in view of vast market. 2.2 Availibilty of technical know how and compliances

CFTRI, Mysore, can offer the technical know-how. Compliance under the PFA Act is necessary. 3.0 MARKET POTENTIAL 3.1 Demand and Supply Eggs are full of nutrients and minerals and areconsumed in different forms since centuries.

higher and it is costly also. Egg powder is comparatively easier totransport and there is no question of any breakage during the transit. 3.2 Marketing Strategy

The major market is defense establishments, various government and non-government nutritional programmes, bakeries and all such areas like hills or forests where transportation is difficult. Before venturing into this project, a proper market assessment and some firm tieup is advisable. 4.0 MANUFACTURINGPROCESS Manufacture of dried egg powder starts with breaking of eggs and removing egg-shells. After removal of shells, the mixture is filtered and stored in storage tanks at about 4º C and then it is taken to tubular heater wherein it is dried at about 65º C for 8 to 10 minutes and it is filtered and passed to high pressure spray drier with the help of high pressure pump. The material which comesout of high pressure spray drier is not only in dried form but also in powder form which is then packed in poly-lined boxes. The average yield is around 80%. CFTRI, Mysore, has developed a process and the promoters may like to seek their help. A typical process flow chart would be as under: Breaking of Eggs and removal of shells K Filtration K Storage and Drying K Packing 5.0 CAPITAL INPUTS: 5.1Land and Buildings

A plot of around 800 sq.mtrs. will be sufficient as the built-up area requirement is not more than 500 sq.mtrs. The built-up area would have main production unit in around 300 sq.mtrs. and balance area will be utilized for storage and packing. Cost of land is expected to Rs.2.40 lacs whereas that of civil work would be Rs.12.50 lacs. 5.2 Plant and Machinery

It is proposed toinstall dry egg powder making unit with capacity of 240 tons per annum with 16 hours of working per day for 300 working days.
