Regulatory Requirements – You are what you eat!<br />

• Ethanol plants need to be aware of process contact with animal<br />

feed<br />

• Chemical products needs to be safe for animal feed<br />

– GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) Currently listed in<br />

CFR as GRAS for animal feed 21 CFR 582 or 584.<br />

– Self certified GRAS<br />

• <strong>Nalco</strong> uses Keller & Heckman as third party verification<br />

– CVM (FDA review- not required for compliance with feed<br />

regulations)<br />

• Not all animal rations are created equal (dietary exposure as a<br />

determination of safety is dependent on % use in animal feed, and<br />

the feed consumption factor for individual animal species)<br />

• Approvals are application specific<br />

– It is the intended use of a substance, rather than the substance<br />

itself, that is eligible for GRAS. If a product is GRAS for one<br />

use, it is not necessarily GRAS for all uses.<br />

– Application influences concentration in the final feed due to<br />

varied chemical usage levels, points of application, end<br />

product feed rations.<br />

– Cumulative exposure is also considered.<br />
