How to Preventing Caking from the NPK Fertilizer Production Process

Written by fertilizer production line on December 3rd, 2019.

NPK compound fertilizer is prone to cake because of its strength, moisture content, storage and so on. This article will introduce how to prevent caking from the process operation of NPK fertilizer production process.

NPK fertilizer production equipment produce products with smooth and uniform particles

Non-uniform particles, too many fine particles, non-smooth fertilizer, the compressive resistance, wear resistance is also poor, easy to be compressed and deformed in storage and transportation. The contact area between particles increase, which is easy to agglomerate. In order to produce products with uniform and smooth particle size, appropriate fertilizer granulator machine should be selected. Disc granulator and rotary drum granulator can produce moderate size particles and meet the requirements. If there is a higher requirement for the shape of the particles, it can also be combined with the ball shaping machine to polish the particles to ensure that the shape is qualified.

Strengthening the control of screening machine

In order to ensure the consistency of particle size and reduce the caking of powder, it is necessary to screen particles with the rotary drum screener machine. According to the particle size of the product, different screens can be selected, and secondary screening can be selected in the process. Pay attention to the material screening in production, timely clean the screen.

Dryer reduces product water content

NPK compound fertilizer has a high water content, which will lead to salt reaction and cause hardening. The higher the water content, the easier the particles to agglomerate. Therefore, the NPK compound fertilizer production line must use a dryer to reduce the moisture content to the allowable range.

After the particle is dried by the dryer, the temperature is higher and the hygroscopicity effect will appear, so it needs to be cooled. The cooler reduces the material temperature to room temperature, and the product can be saved.

Coating treatment is used in NPK fertilizer production process

Choose the suitable material and use the fertilizer coating machine to coat the particles. At the same time, pay attention to the amount of wrapping agent added. The amount of wrapping agent added is small, the particles are not wrapped completely, the effect is poor; the amount of adding is large, the wrapping oil will infiltrate into the inside of the NPK fertilizer, and the product is easy to cake.

How to select fertilizer granulator suitable for compound fertilizer production

Written by fertilizer production line on November 29th, 2019.

Solid compound fertilizer granules are more effective than other fertilizers in use and soil, and are widely welcomed in the market. Fertilizer granulation is a basic treatment method in fertilizer production. Fertilizer granulator machine mixes different fertilizers into granules, which plays an important role in NPK fertilizer production line.

Basic fertilizers such as ammonium bicarbonate, urea, ammonium chloride, ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, ordinary superphosphate, calcium magnesium phosphate, ingot phosphate, heavy superphosphate, potassium chloride, potassium sulfate, phosphate nitrate, dicalcium phosphate, potassium nitrate and so on are proportionally compounded to make the compound fertilizer we need, which is granulated by fertilizer granulator. Granulation is the granulation of fertilizer containing water. In NPK fertilizer production equipment, the commonly used fertilizer granulator machine includes double roller fertilizer granulator, rotary drum granulator and disc fertilizer granulator.

Fertilizer granulator machine granulates by agglomeration

The working principle of drum granulator and disc granulator is similar. When urea, calcium superphosphate, ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, potassium fertilizer and other fertilizers are mixed, they are aggregated into compound fertilizer granules through granulation operation. Rotary drum granulator and disc granulator are suitable for granulation of various ingredients, and the obtained granules are of good quality and high granulation rate of materials.

The main body of the rotary drum granulator is a horizontal drum. The drum is driven by motor, reducer and gear, which is supported by wheel and rollover. The drum granulator has strong production capacity, long material residence time and good granulation effect.

The main body of the disc granulator is a slightly inclined disc, which continuously rolls to complete granulation. In the production of disc fertilizer granulator, the production situation can be seen directly, which is convenient to observe and adjust in time, and the granulation rate of compound fertilizer is high.

Fertilizer granulator machine granulates by extrusion

The double roller fertilizer granulator makes the material into granules by extrusion method. The water content is not higher than 15%, and the materials with good fertilizer effect are mixed after mixing, and the material is strongly extruded by the roller press granulator, so that the molecular force between fertilizers acts and is extruded, and then the sheeted material is crushed into granular compound fertilizer.
