The reason why the water should not be too much when the organic fertilizer granulator is producing

2024/08/16

In the production process of organic fertilizer granulator, it is very important to control the water content of raw materials, and too much water will cause the following problems:

1. Granulation difficulty: too much water will make the raw material too wet, easy to form caking in the granulation process, affecting the granulation effect. High humidity increases the adhesion of raw materials, which can lead to blockage of the pelletizer feed system and pelletizing components.

2. Particle quality decline: The particles formed in the granulation process of raw materials with too much water may be too soft, insufficient strength, and easy to be broken in subsequent treatment and transportation. Too much water will lead to uneven particle formation, affecting the overall quality of the fertilizer.

3. Drying problem: too much water will make the particles need more time to remove water during the drying process, thus extending the drying time and increasing energy consumption. High moisture will lead to uneven moisture distribution in the drying process, affecting the drying quality of the particles.

4. Increased energy consumption: Processing high-moisture raw materials requires more energy to complete the drying process, increasing production costs.

5. Equipment loss: high moisture raw materials may increase the wear and tear of organic fertilizer equipment and shorten the service life of equipment. Equipment clogging and failure due to excessive moisture may require more frequent maintenance and overhaul.

Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth progress of organic fertilizer granulation and product quality, it is usually necessary to control the moisture of raw materials within the appropriate range.
