3–5 T/H Organic Fertilizer Granulator in Thailand

Raw Materials and Local Availability

Thailand’s agricultural landscape provides a variety of organic materials suitable for fertilizer production. For this project, the factory uses:

• Pig manure: Collected from small to medium pig farms, semi-dried to a moisture content of 18–20%.
• Rice husks and straw: By-products from rice mills in the region, chopped to 15–25 mm length for granulation.
• Sugarcane bagasse: Abundant from nearby sugarcane processing plants, used to improve pellet strength and reduce fines.
• Cow manure: Incorporated in small proportions to balance nutrients, dried to about 20% moisture content.

The raw material mixture for the FZLH350 granulator was carefully designed to maximize granulation efficiency and nutrient balance:

• Pig manure: 50%
• Rice straw: 25%
• Sugarcane bagasse: 15%
• Cow manure: 10%

Moisture control was crucial. High-moisture ingredients like pig manure and cow manure were dried in a rotary drum dryer to below 20% moisture content, ensuring the FZLH350 could operate without clogging or jamming.

Equipment Selection: FZLH350 Organic Fertilizer Granulator

The FZLH350 organic fertilizer granulator was selected based on the customer’s production scale and raw material composition. Key specifications:

• Main Motor Power: 37 kW
• Arch-breaking Feeder Power: 2.2 kW
• Forced Feeder Motor Power: 0.75 kW
• Ring Die Diameter: 350 mm
• Pellet Diameter: 6 mm (customized for Thai rice paddy application)
• Production Capacity: 3–5 T/H

The FZLH350 organic fertilizer granulator’s robust ring die and optimized feeding system allowed it to efficiently handle mixed animal manure and fibrous agricultural residues like rice straw and sugarcane bagasse. This ensured consistent, uniform pellets with minimal dust, suitable for both retail and bulk supply.

Production Process and Machine Role

The FZLH350 organic fertilizer granulator in Thailand operates as the central unit of the fertilizer granulation process:

1. Raw Material Pre-processing: Pig and cow manure are collected, partially dried, and mixed with chopped rice straw and bagasse.
2. Mixing: Materials are thoroughly blended in a horizontal mixer to achieve uniform moisture content (~18%) and nutrient distribution.
3. Granulation: The FZLH350 compresses the mixture into 6 mm cylindrical pellets, optimized for field application in rice paddies.
4. Cooling and Screening: Pellets are cooled to ambient temperature and screened; oversized pieces are recycled back into the granulator.
5. Packaging: Finished pellets are bagged for delivery to farmers and distributors.

The organic fertilizer granulator in Thailand is crucial in producing high-density, durable pellets that reduce nutrient loss during handling and storage. Its precise control over pellet size and uniformity ensures consistent application and better results in the field.

Advantages of the FZLH350 Organic Fertilizer Granulator

• Versatility: Capable of processing pig, cow, and mixed animal manure, as well as fibrous crop residues.
• Durable ring die: Designed to withstand high-fiber content without frequent clogging.
• Energy-efficient: Motors optimized to reduce power consumption while maintaining stable output.
• Adjustable pellet size: Produces 4–12 mm pellets; this factory opted for 6 mm to meet field requirements.
• Low maintenance: Easy-access components allow quick cleaning and replacement.
• Robust construction: Suitable for continuous operation in tropical climates with high humidity and dust.

The customer valued the fertilizer granulator machine’s ability to handle high-fiber content and mixed manure without compromising pellet quality.
