6–8 T/H Animal Manure Pellet Machine in Vietnam

Raw Materials and Processing Approach

The client sources their raw materials primarily from nearby livestock farms. These include:

• Pig manure (50%) from intensive pig farms, with an initial moisture content of 25–30%
• Chicken manure (30%), collected from poultry houses, mixed with rice husks to improve carbon-to-nitrogen ratio
• Water buffalo manure (20%), which is high in fiber, providing structural integrity for pellet formation

Before pelletizing, all raw materials undergo pre-composting for 15–20 days to reduce pathogenic bacteria and ammonia levels. Due to the high moisture content of pig and chicken manure, the client also installed a rotary drum dryer prior to pelletizing to ensure the moisture content is reduced to the optimal 18–20% for the FZLH organic fertilizer pellet machine.

For this organic fertilizer production project, the client selected the FZLH420 model with the following parameters:

• Main motor power: 90 kW
• Ring die diameter: 420 mm
• Finished pellet diameter: 6–8 mm (optimized for fertilizer application)
• Production capacity: 6–8 T/H

This configuration was chosen to balance production capacity with energy efficiency, matching the client’s available raw material volume.

Machine Functionality and Product Application

The animal manure pellet machine in Vietnam serves primarily to produce high-quality organic fertilizer pellets. The pellets are used to:

1. Improve soil fertility for rice paddies and vegetable farms
2. Provide a slow-release nutrient source, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers
3. Facilitate easier storage, transport, and distribution compared to loose manure or compost

The client blends pig manure, chicken manure, and buffalo manure at a 5:3:2 ratio, ensuring the pellets have a balanced nutrient profile. The final pellet size of 6–8 mm is ideal for mechanized spreading equipment used by local farmers. While the machine is designed primarily for fertilizer production, the robust FZLH pig chicken manure pellet machine design also allows occasional processing of other agricultural waste like rice straw, sugarcane bagasse, or coffee husks for co-pelletization, enhancing the versatility of the plant.

Logistics and Transportation

The FZLH420 pellet machine was shipped from the manufacturer in China via sea freight. It arrived at Hai Phong Port, one of the main international shipping hubs in northern Vietnam. From the port, the client coordinated local trucking to transport the machine to their facility in the Mekong Delta region.

Technical Advantages and Machine Selection Rationale

• Versatility: Capable of processing a wide range of animal manures and agricultural residues
• Durability: Heavy-duty ring die and roller design allow continuous operation with minimal downtime
• Efficiency: High throughput of 6–8 T/H with low energy consumption relative to output
• Uniform Pellets: Produces dense, uniform 6–8 mm pellets that resist breakage during handling
• Ease of Maintenance: Modular design allows fast replacement of key components

The machine’s combination of forced feeding and ring die technology ensures high-quality pellets even with variable moisture and fiber content in the raw materials. For the client, this meant consistent product quality, increased production efficiency, and reduced labor costs.

Customer Feedback and Outcome

Since installing the animal manure pellet machine in Vietnam, the client reported:

• A 40% increase in daily pellet output compared to manual and semi-manual methods
• Significant reduction in odor and handling difficulties associated with raw manure
• High customer satisfaction from local farmers purchasing the pellets, due to uniform size and improved nutrient release

The client also noted that RICHI Machinery provided comprehensive support, including:

• On-site installation guidance and machine commissioning
• Training staff in optimal pelletizing techniques and machine maintenance
• Ongoing technical support for adjustments and troubleshooting

One of the production managers stated: “The FZLH420 has transformed our operation. We can now meet local demand efficiently, reduce environmental impact, and provide a high-quality organic fertilizer product. RICHI’s team was professional throughout, from selection to training.”

Strategic Investment in Sustainable Fertilizer Production

This project illustrates the value of investing in a high-quality animal manure pellet machine in Vietnam. By converting locally available animal manure and agricultural residues into uniform fertilizer pellets, the client not only enhances farm productivity but also supports sustainable waste management practices.

RICHI Machinery’s FZLH series manure fertilizer granulator machine offers versatile, reliable, and energy-efficient solutions for organic fertilizer producers. The machine’s capability to handle mixed animal manures and agricultural residues makes it an ideal choice for expanding fertilizer production in countries like Vietnam, where livestock farming generates significant amounts of raw materials.

By choosing the FZLH420, the client successfully upgraded their production line with a single machine that significantly improves efficiency, reduces labor costs, and ensures consistent product quality, demonstrating why RICHI Machinery remains a trusted partner for organic fertilizer projects worldwide.
