3-5T/H Chicken Manure Fertilizer Pellet Making Machine in Turkey

Raw Materials and Pellet Composition

Turkey has a well-established poultry industry, producing substantial quantities of chicken manure. For this project, the client used a combination of wet chicken manure and agricultural by-products such as wheat straw and small amounts of sawdust. This blend was optimized to maintain suitable moisture levels for pelletizing (around 18–20%) and to improve pellet structure.

• Chicken manure: Approximately 70% of the raw material mix. Sourced from nearby poultry farms, it was partially dewatered to reduce moisture content.
• Wheat straw: About 25%, shredded into small pieces to act as a binder and improve pellet durability.
• Sawdust: 5% for additional fiber content, enhancing pellet hardness and reducing dust formation.

The client chose the FZLH350 model for this project, which features a main motor power of 37 kW, a ring die diameter of 350 mm, and a feed-through auger with 0.75 kW motor. The expected production capacity was 3–5 tons per hour, sufficient to meet the facility’s current market demand. The target pellet diameter was set at 6 mm, ideal for distribution to local farmers who preferred smaller pellets for easier handling and application.

Machine Role and Benefits

The chicken manure fertilizer pellet making machine in Turkey serves as the core granulation equipment, transforming loose, moist manure into uniform, dense pellets. The resulting pellets offer multiple advantages:

1. Consistent nutrient distribution: Each pellet contains a balanced mix of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium derived from chicken manure, improving soil fertility and crop growth.
2. Improved handling and storage: Pellets are easier to package, store, and transport than raw manure, with reduced odor and lower risk of nutrient loss.
3. Reduced environmental impact: Pelletizing manure prevents direct disposal, mitigating ammonia emissions and nutrient leaching.
4. Enhanced market value: High-quality pellets attract premium prices in Turkey’s organic fertilizer market.

The client also appreciated that the machine is versatile. While their primary application was chicken manure fertilizer, the FZLH series chicken manure organic fertilizer pellet machines can process other animal manures such as cow, sheep, or pig manure, as well as agricultural residues like corn stalks, rice husks, and sawdust. This flexibility provides opportunities for future diversification of product lines.

Transportation and Logistics

The FZLH350 chicken manure pellet machine was shipped from Qingdao Port, China, and arrived at the Port of Istanbul. From there, the client arranged inland transport to their facility, located in central Turkey. Shipping as a single unit simplified customs clearance and allowed for careful inspection during installation.

Technical Features and Advantages

The client highlighted several features that influenced their purchasing decision:

• Ring die design: Ensures consistent pellet size and uniform compaction.
• Strong feed system: The arch-breaking and forced-feeding mechanisms prevent clogging and maintain stable output.
• Energy efficiency: Main motor and auxiliary motors are optimized for reduced power consumption while maintaining high throughput.
• Ease of maintenance: Modular components allow easy replacement of wear parts, minimizing downtime.
• Wide application range: Capable of processing wet or dry chicken manure, mixed manures, and agro-wastes.

These features make the machine suitable for both small and medium-scale operations, offering reliability and long-term cost savings.
