An energy-efficient extrusion technology for the complex processing of wet brewing waste into feed products for animals and poultry is proposed and evaluated. The study aims to replace traditional energy-intensive drying methods – typically involving natural gas, steam, or boiler exhaust gases – with a more sustainable extrusion process. The approach allows direct utilization of wet brewing by-products, such as brewers’ grains and brewers’ yeast, without preliminary drying, thereby reducing energy consumption by up to 50%. The technological development was based on systems analysis and synthesis of extrusion processes, combining wet brewing waste with dry feed components. The research identified optimal parameters for extrusion: a feed mixture to compound feed component ratio of 1:1.85–2; initial moisture content of 28–30%; extrusion temperature of 140–150 °C; and barrel pressure of 4–8 MPa. The final product was a partially dehydrated mass with a moisture content of 60–65%, suitable for use as a feed additive or complete compound feed. The results demonstrate improved product quality and extended shelf life due to thermal and mechanical treatment during extrusion. The novelty of the approach lies in bypassing the conventional drying step, offering a cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to increase the value of brewing industry waste.
