What is a fertilizer granulation equipment?

Fertilizer granulation equipment is the most important machine to produce fertilizer pellets. By using fertilizer granulation equipment, you can get various fertilizer particles easily. Whether it is organic fertilizer raw materials or compound fertilizer raw materials, fertilizer granulator can deal with it well. That is the granulator meaning. In SEEC , we have many different fertilizer granulator machines, such as, new type organic fertilizer granulator, double roller extrusion granulator, disc granulator, etc.

Here are the top-selling fertilizer pelletizers

Why do we granulate fertilizer?

Why do we granulate fertilizer? Do you know the reasons for granulation? Generally speaking, it’s hard to store the fertilizer when the fertilizer is powdery. But if your fertilizer shape is granular, it will easy to store, and the appearance will be more beautiful. Here are the special reasons that we adopt fertilizer pellets.

• The pellet fertilizer made by fertilizer granulation equipment have a small area, which greatly reduces the possibility of agglomeration.
• With good fluidity, granular fertilizer is more suitable for mechanized packaging and fertilization
• Compared with powdered fertilizer, granular fertilizer has a lower density, which correspondingly reduces the cost of packaging, storage and transportation
• Small amount of dust generated during loading, unloading and fertilization operations. This improves the environment and reduces fertilizer losses.

The types of granulation techniques

In SEEC heavy industry, we have two different ways to make fertilizer pellets. That is dry type granulation technique and wet type granulation technique. And different granulator has their own granulation methods.

Dry type granulation：Generally speaking, dry type granulation technique is the good method of making compound fertilizer granules. You can choose double roller granulator help you to make it.

Dry granulation is traditionally referred to as extrusion granulation. And you don’t need to add water or adhesives to the fertilizer process. In the extrusion granulation process, the raw material is gathered into the primary powder in the fertilizer granulator under high pressure, and the powder is extruded into fertilizer granules between two rollers. All finished fertilizer pellets can be packaged without drying or cooling. Therefore, dry granulation method is suitable for small and medium-sized chemical fertilizer plants with less investment.

Wet type granulation：Compared with dry type granulation, wet granulated fertilizer has higher moisture content. You need to add water or binder during the granulation process to hold the fertilizer together. Because there is some moisture in the fertilizer particles after granulation, the finished product needs to be dried and cooled. And wet granulation is mostly used for the production of organic fertilizer granules. In SEEC , there are four fertilizer granulators are wet type granulation. That is new type organic fertilizer granulator, rotary drum churning granulator, disc granulator, rotary drum granulator. You can choose the suitable one for your fertilizer plant or poultry farm.

If there are too much moisture existed in the fertilizer pellets, what should we do?

As mentioned above, if you adopt wet type fertilizer granulation equipment for making fertilizer pellets, there will be some water existed in fertilizer pellets. Do you know how to remove the moisture of the fertilizer granules? SEEC has drying machine and cooling machine help you to deal with this problem.

For example, after the process of granulation, the moisture of the pellets is 15%-20%. You can use rotary drum dryer to reduce granules moisture content below 10%. Then the fertilizer particles can meet the packaging standards.

Are there any useful designs for fertilizer granulation equipment to produce high quality fertilizer pellets?

In order to make high-efficiency fertilizer pellets, SEEC fertilizer granulation equipment have many good pelletizing process technologies.

The roller of double roller extrusion granulator. The double roller is the key part of this compound fertilizer pellets making machine. The press rollers, which are accommodated to press different shapes materials, adopt new metal which is resistant to corrosion, oxidation, and abrasion. The double roller press machine has perfect performance, reliable operation, easy in maintenance and long service life. With the help of the roller, you can get the shape of fertilizer granules you want, such as, pillow shape, semicircle shape, stick shape, pill shape, walnut shape.

The scraper of the disk granulator. Because powdery fertilizer material will stick to the bottom of the disc. The scraper will help to remove the fertilizer material from the disc and help the fertilizer pellet making machine work better.

The body of the rotary drum pellet mill. The most important part of the whole granulator is the rotary drum. This machine body is made of high quality medium carbon steel plate welded together with special inner rubber lining plate or acid resistant stainless steel lining plate. This allows the adhesive material to be automatically removed.

The working principle of granulation

Different fertilizer granulators have their own working principle. And these different principles of granulation can help the fertilizer granulation equipment work better and produce more efficient organic fertilizer & compound fertilizer granules.

Organic fertilizer pelletizer working principle. The new type granulator machine utilizes the mechanical stirring force of high-speed rotation and the resulting aerodynamic force to make fertilizer pellets. That can make powdery material in the machine to achieve the process of mixing, granulating, nodulizing, density and other processes, so as to achieve the purpose of granulating. Particle size can be adjusted by material quantity and spindle speed. Generally, the lower the mixing amount, the higher the rotation speed and the smaller the particle, and vice versa.

Compound fertilizer double roller extrusion granulator working principle. The mixed materials are transported by belt conveyor to the top of the roller extrusion granulator. Then the powdery material is forced to be squeezed between the two rollers below, and the two rollers rotate relative to each other. Under the action of strong extrusion pressure, the delivered material will be turn into cake material. Next, the cake material enters into the crushing work room and broken by the crushing shaft. Then the crushed material is screened through the sieve under the crushing room. At the same time, qualified particles are sent externally. And the unqualified powdery materials will be sent back to the raw material warehouse for secondary roll.

As mentioned above, different fertilizer pellets making machine has their own working principle. We can’t tell you how all the granulators work. If you want to know the details, feel free to contact us.
