Maize DDGS is a co-product of maize based ethanol production, rich in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients. It serves as an excellent alternative to traditional feed ingredients, offering superior nutritional benefits for various livestock species.

Figure 1. Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS) is the most common coproduct available from fuel ethanol plants. Figure 2. Distillers Wet Grains (DWG) is another common coproduct available from fuel ethanol plants.

Distiller’s Dried Grains with Soluble (DDGS) is the dried residue remaining after the starch fraction of maize (Corn DDGS) is fermented with yeasts to produce ethanol. Following fermentation, the ethanol is removed by distillation and the remaining fermentation residues are dried.

The extraction of maize oil from distillers dried grain is less costly than direct extraction from the grain. It produces an oil unsuitable for food and feed but usable for biodiesel, as well as reduced fat DDGS (US EPA, 2010; Hoffman et al., 2010).

Distiller’s Dried Grains with Soluble (DDGS) is the dried residue remaining after the starch fraction of maize (Corn DDGS) is fermented with yeasts to produce ethanol. Following fermentation, the ethanol is removed by distillation and the remaining fermentation residues are dried.

Dried byproduct of alcohol (beverages) manufacture, obtained from the distillery of maize grains (Zea mays L.), consisting of spent grains and steepwater solubles in variable proportions. This product contains less residual oil than regular maize distillers.

Maize DDGS is produced by a dry-grind process in which corn kernels are not divided into many products and only one by-product is formed. It involves grinding and fermenting of the entire kernel. Maize DDGS is known for its easily digestible nature and is used to feed cattle, poultry animals and fish.

Corn DDGS (Dried Distillers Grains with Solubles) is a valuable byproduct of maize, providing a rich source of protein at 30%. Ideal for animal feed, maize DDGS is widely used in bulk cargo shipments.

Maize DDGS, a robust co-product derived from maize-based ethanol production, stands as a nutritional powerhouse for livestock. Laden with protein, fiber, and essential nutrients, it transcends mere feed ingredients, elevating animal nutrition to unprecedented levels.
