Granulator is one of the main equipment for processing finished fertilizer. And in the face of all kinds of granulating machines on the market nowadays, how to choose fertilizer granulator becomes a heated issue for the new investors who are involved in the fertilizer production business. This page will provide references for the initiates in the fertilizer industry.
What Factors Do You Need to Take Into Account in The Selection of A Pelletizer?
Ⅰ. Focus on Granulation Techniques— Dry Granulation vs Wet Granulation
1. Dry Granulation Machines
თhe moisture of the material is the primary control index for the pelletizing process. For one thing, dry granulation manufactures fertilizer pellets with relatively low material moisture. ზოგადად, the moisture content is less than 10% as a critical value, and there are very few materials can reach 16%.
მაგალითად, extrusion granulatorს (ბრტყელი გრანულატორი და როლიკებით ექსტრუზიის გრანულატორი) apply this method for the production of pellets in variable shapes. Compared with the wet granulation, it has lower energy consumption and equipment cost. გარდა ამისა, it doesn’t require the საშრობის or binders to affect the nature of the materials.
2. Wet Granulation Machines
ფor another thing, wet granulators are equipped with sprinkle system. მეტიც, we greatly recommend conditional fertilizer plants to utilize steam humidification for better granulation effect. მერე, the following way is hot water granulation, which is superior than cold water granulation.
More importantly, wet granulation refers to the production of fertilizer particles containing 20-40% ტენიანობა, which are mostly in the form of balls. უფრო მეტიც, wet granulation has a variety of equipment: new type organic fertilizer granulator, rotary drum churning granulator, disc granulator და rotary drum granulator.
შენიშვნა: High moisture of materials easily produce big spherical particles, while low moisture obviously cause fertilizer powder loose or sandy and lower granulation rate.
Ⅱ. Focus on Physical Properties of Raw Materialს
Generally, before granulating, the size of feeding material should be less than 300 meshes which can be pelletized by rotary type granulators, როგორიცაა churning granulator, drum granulator და disc granulator.
ფlat die granulator ან rotary roller extrusion granulator can make granules from materials with large size, forming difficulty and great hardness.
Light powder materials, such as livestock manure, coal dust, clay, და kaolin, require the addition of water or a binder to be formed granules. They can be granulated by a new type organic fertilizer granulator, disc granulator, ან rotary drum granulator. All of these machines have liquid spraying device.
უფრო მეტიც, the extrusion granulator is suitable for granulation of non-viscous particles to avoid clinging to the roller sheet and affecting the working situation. მაგალითად, the equipment can use to dispose crude fiber materials, which are difficult to form with low adhesion, such as sawdust, ბრინჯის ნაჭერი, cotton stalks, cottonseed skins, weeds and other crops, straw and plant waste.
Ⅲ. Focus on Finished Products Requirements
1. Fertilizer Category
2. Fertilizer Granular Size
The particle size of the product obtained varies greatly depending on the granulation method. მაგალითად, rolling granulation commonly make pellets in the small and uneven size, usually 0.3-3მმ, როგორიცაა drum granulator და pan granulator. მიუხედავად ამისა, the extrusion granulator make the size of the particles small and uniform through the mold, generally 2-10მმ.
მეტიც, other granulators can change the particle sizes by adjusting different parameters. Let’s take the disc granulator as an example!
How to Control The Particle Size of Disk Granulator?
3. Fertilizer Shape
Spherical pellets are processed by disc granulator, new type organic fertilizer granulator და churning granulator with high granulation rate, but drum granulator’s pelleting rate is low, only 70%. At present, large and medium scale fertilizer production factories mostly use rotary drum granulation machine. There are also some factories will connect disk granulator თან drum granulator for secondary granulation, with better results.
ბრტყელი გრანულატორი produces columnar granules.
Rotary როლიკებით ექსტრუზიის გრანულატორი can make pillow shape, ნახევარწრიული ფორმა, ჯოხის ფორმა, აბების ფორმა, კაკლის ფორმა, flat ball shape and square bar shape. If you want spherical fertilizer granules, we recommend you to add organic fertilizer polishing machine.
Ⅳ. Focus on Capacity
If the output is 1-3 ტონა საათში, we suggest to choose ბრტყელი გრანულატორი ან rotary roller extrusion granulator. If you require high effect of granules, you may choose the latter one.
For small production lines with an output of 4-8 ტონა საათში, we recommend choosing churning granulator ან disc granulator. If you want better effect on the granules, you should choose the former. If you prefer high production efficiency, we advise you to install more than two disc pelletizers because of the low cost.
The ბარაბანი პელეტიზატორი is generally ideal for professional medium and large organic fertilizer manufacturing plants with output requirements ranging from 9 რომ 30 ტონა საათში. If you require high capacity and good shape of the pellets, you can choose the rotary drum churning granulator.
სხვა სიტყვებით რომ ვთქვათ, if you own a small or medium scale fertilizer factory with an annual capacity of 5,000-20,000 ტონა, we propose a high-quality, low-cost ბრტყელი გრანულატორი და disc granulator. უფრო მეტიც, if you run a large fertilizer plant with an annual output of more than 50,000 ტონა, we recommend purchasing a rotary drum granulator directly. Because it is specifically designed to produce fertilizer granules on a greatly large scale and is more time-saving, efficient, and energy-efficient than several churning granulators working at the same time.
Ⅴ. Focus on Investment Costs
ვe strongly recommend you to choose flat die pelletizer და roller extrusion pelletizer because they are small in size, save civil construction cost and have good economic efficiency. They produce pellets in room temperature, without dryer and cooler, and have no environmental pollution. ამასობაში, they have high granulation density, high organic matter content and good fertilizer efficiency.
If you do not have a large budget and have severe environmental protection standards, we recommend that you choose a დისკის პელეტიზატორი, which has a low cost, low civil construction cost, a specific output, and can work more than one at the same time.
დასასრულს, when choosing a right granulator, the fertilizer manufacturers need to consider their output and production cost. The granulation production process, in addition to the physical properties of the materials, is also closely related to the type and mechanical features of the granulation equipment.
