Rayeman Elements
Debt Financing in 2013
Rayeman Elements manufactures, develops, and distributes innovative technology to produce environmentally friendly products for the ethanol industry.
Its Rayeman Bulk Densification Equipment utilizes patented technology to provide sustainable solutions for range cattle, as well as other species' feed, renewable energy, and shipping purposes. This ground-breaking system processes 100% distillers' or brewers' grain with no added fillers or binders, using only heating, cooling, and 3-dimensional pressure through its unique technology.
This patented technology provides the opportunity to bulk densify virtually any product introduced, reducing the material by up to 70%, forming a cube, pellet, or log.
Rayeman Elements has recently completed a sale of two ground-breaking Rayeman Compression Dryers (RCD) to Lincolnway Energy in Nevada, Iowa. The RCD's patented technology safely and efficiently converts wet grain to premium dry grain, in a process that yields the benefits of the reduction of emissions, elimination of explosions, a smaller footprint, and significantly lower capital outlay and operating costs than conventional dryer systems.
The Rayeman Compression Dryer is designed to be flexible, dependent on desired output and dryness levels. The barrel and screw arrangements can be hooked up in series or in a parallel configuration and can be connected in series to existing conventional drying systems to increase capacity and quality.
