10，000 Ton Per Year
Granular Compound Fertilizer Production Line

For a 10,000-ton-per-year granular compound fertilizer production line, MFP recommends a double roller extrusion granulation method. Raw materials that are sensitive to heat are particularly suited to extrusion granulation. According to capacity, double roller extrusion granulation is perfect for small-scale compound fertilizer factories. It is a type of dry granulation. Thus, you can skip the procedure of drying and cooling because the end product is always dry. As a result, it can save energy consumption. With this production line, you will produce little waste and you can reduce the investment and production costs.

The extrusion granulation method can produce particles with high strength, good appearance, uniform sizes, and adjustable shapes. Moreover, it can add micronutrients according to different needs.

Raw Materials For Making Granular Compound Fertilizer

A wide range of raw materials can be granulated by the extrusion method, including calcium carbonate, ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, calcium nitrate, limestone, gypsum, NPK compound fertilizer potassium chloride, potassium sulfate, heavy calcium, urea, phosphate ore, etc.

The capacity of roller extrusion granulator is from 1 to 3 tons per hour.

Granular Compound Fertilizer-Making Process

MFP will introduce you to an annual output of 10,000 tons of compound fertilizer production line. We will mainly talk about how many double roller granulators you need in this production line and how to make granular compound fertilizers.

 

4 Stages of making compound fertilizer

Crusher with an Annual production capacity of 10,000 tons

Since raw materials are often of irregular shape, you need a chain crusher or a cage crusher to crush them into fine powder. A chain crusher can efficiently crush blocks. Then, fully blend the powder to ensure the quality of the pellets. The MFP company provides you with two types of crushers. One is a cage crusher, and the other is a chain crusher. For this production line, we recommend that you choose our LSF-600 model crusher because its capacity can reach 4-6 tons per hour.

Selecting A Granulator For 10,000 Ton Per Year Production Target

For a 10,000 ton per year production line, you can choose a double roller pressing granulator with a capacity of 1 ton. This equipment has a stable output and easy maintenance. You can purchase four granulators so that they can work at the same time. Their capacity can reach 4 tons per hour.

According to an 8-hour shift, it can reach a shift production of 32 tons. Including equipment maintenance and holidays, it can produce about 10,000 tons in 330 days a year.

Next, let’s estimate the cost. Take the above work shift as an example: four double roller extrusion machines work eight hours a day, and the electricity consumption per day is about 480 kW (150,000 kW per year). Since the price is different around the world, you can estimate based on local costs. Besides, maintenance and wear repairs are also worthy of consideration.

The rollers on the machine can be many shapes; you can customize them according to your needs. Moreover, the rollers are easy to wear and tear. You need to change the rollers after using them for a while. Otherwise, it may influence the balling rate of end products.

Types of coating and packing equipment used in the production line

To increase the brightness and roundness of the granules, the qualified products need coating. MFP’s rotary coating machine can effectively prevent lumps and uses liquid coating. Our PY-1200 model can well assemble this production line and it can reach 3-5 tons per hour.

Packing Process In The Production Line

The finished products are packed and stored in a ventilated area. MFP produces an automatic packaging machine, and one worker can operate it. Of course, if you use automatic packaging machines, belt conveyors are also necessary, which MFP also produces. This package machine is customizable.

Granular Compound Fertilizer Production Line

Why dry granulator is suitable for granular compound fertilizer production line?

Double roller granulators are now mainstream in dry granulation. For some compound fertilizers with low nitrogen content and high water solubility. It is obviously more suitable than drum granulating. What’s more, as we mentioned before, some chemical raw materials are not heat-resistant. During the drying process, the temperature will rise and destroy some elements.

According to the characteristics of ammonium sulfate and ammonium chloride, the use of dry granulation can extrude the air between the crystals. The moisture and strength of particles can meet the requirements of fertilizer and are easy to transport. Meanwhile, the use of double roller granulators can achieve automated production.
