Raw material preparation:
Urea, ammonium nitrate, ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate (monoammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, heavy calcium, general calcium), potassium chloride (potassium sulfate) and other raw materials are prepared in a certain proportion (according to market demand and soil test results in various places).
Raw material mixing:
Mix the prepared raw materials evenly to improve the uniform fertilizer content of the fertilizer particles as a whole.
Raw material granulation:
Send the mixed raw materials to the granulator for granulation (a rotary drum granulator or an extrusion granulator can be used).
Granule drying:
Send the granules made by the granulator to the dryer to dry the moisture contained in the granules, increase the granule strength, and facilitate storage.
Granule cooling:
The temperature of the dried fertilizer granules is too high and easy to agglomerate. After cooling, it is easy to bag, store, and transport.
Granule screening:
The cooled granules are classified, the unqualified granules are crushed and re-granulated, and the qualified products are screened out.
Finished product coating:
Qualified products are coated to increase the brightness and roundness of the particles.
Finished product packaging:
The coated particles, i.e. the finished products, are bagged and stored in a ventilated place.

What is the difference between compound fertilizer production line and organic fertilizer production line?
The main differences between compound fertilizer production lines and organic fertilizer production lines are in production raw materials, production processes, equipment configuration, final product properties, and environmental protection requirements.
- Production raw materials
- Compound fertilizer production line: mainly uses mineral raw materials, such as phosphate fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer, potash fertilizer, etc., and some chemical additives. These raw materials are produced by chemical synthesis or mechanical mixing.
- Organic fertilizer production line: uses organic waste, such as crop straw, livestock and poultry manure, food processing waste, urban organic waste, etc. These raw materials are converted into organic fertilizers through fermentation, composting, etc.
- Production process
- Compound fertilizer production line: The production process focuses on chemical reaction or mechanical mixing. The main processes include raw material batching, drying, granulation, cooling, screening, coating, etc. The ingredients of compound fertilizer can be produced by mechanical mixing or chemical synthesis.
- Organic fertilizer production line: The production process includes raw material pretreatment (such as crushing, moisture adjustment), fermentation/composting, screening, drying, granulation, etc. Since the main component of organic fertilizer is organic matter, the fermentation process is particularly important, and composting equipment, fermentation equipment, etc. are needed to promote the decomposition of organic matter.
- Equipment configuration
- Compound fertilizer production line: The main equipment includes batching system, granulator, cooler, coating machine, screening machine, packaging machine, etc.
- Organic fertilizer production line: The main equipment includes compost turning machine, fermentation tank, granulator, dryer, screening machine, packaging machine, etc.
- Properties of the final product
- Compound fertilizer: The main components are basic nutrients required by plants such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. The fertilizer effect is fast and can quickly provide the nutrients required by plants. It is suitable for quickly replenishing nutrients in the soil.
- Organic fertilizer: It mainly contains organic matter, rich in humus, trace elements and soil improvement ingredients, and is a natural fertilizer. It is characterized by slow-release fertilizer effect, which can improve soil structure and promote soil microbial activity.
- Environmental protection requirements
- Compound fertilizer production: Since chemical reactions are involved, chemical gases or waste gases may be produced, so the environmental protection requirements are high, and it is necessary to ensure that there are appropriate waste gas treatment and emission standards during the production process.
- Organic fertilizer production: The treatment of raw materials is relatively strict, especially the gas emissions during the fermentation process need to meet environmental protection standards. The odor generated during the fermentation process requires a good ventilation system and odor treatment facilities.
Are there any differences in the processes for processing different compound fertilizers?
Yes, for the following main types of compound fertilizers, their processing technology is as follows, you can compare:
- General compound fertilizer
- Raw material ratio: According to the formula, weigh urea, monoammonium phosphate, potassium chloride and other raw materials in proportion.
- Mixing: Use a mixer to mix the raw materials thoroughly and evenly.
- Granulation: Use drum granulation or high tower granulation technology to make the mixture into granules.
- Drying and cooling: Use dryers and coolers to reduce the moisture and temperature of the granules.
- Screening and packaging: Screen out qualified granules and package them.
- Special compound fertilizer
- Raw material processing: Crush the raw materials and mix them evenly.
- Granulation: Use spray granulation or drum granulation technology to make granules suitable for specific crops.
- Coating treatment: According to needs, coat the granules to make slow-release or controlled-release fertilizers.
- Packaging: Pack according to specifications and mark the applicable crops.
- Slow-release/controlled-release compound fertilizer
- Raw material preparation: Mix nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium raw materials in proportion.
- Granulation: Basic granules are made by high tower granulation or drum granulation.
- Coating treatment: Spray sulfur or resin on the surface of the granules to form a coating layer.
- Solidification and screening: Stabilize the coating layer through solidification equipment and screen out qualified granules.
- Packaging: Packaging according to specifications, suitable for long-term crops or scenes requiring precise fertilization.
- Functional compound fertilizer
- Raw material ratio: Add humic acid, trace elements or microbial agents to basic nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium raw materials.
- Mixing and granulation: After the raw materials are fully mixed, granules are made through granulation equipment.
- Low-temperature treatment: For compound fertilizers containing microbial agents, a low-temperature drying process is used to avoid high temperature destroying the activity of the agent.
- Sieving and packaging: Qualified granules are screened and packaged, suitable for soil improvement or specific functional requirements.
What are the raw materials for processing compound fertilizer?
The main raw materials of compound fertilizer include three nutrients: nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. However, some trace elements and additives are also included. The raw materials of compound fertilizer mainly include the following:
(1) Nitrogen source:
- Urea: High nitrogen content, often used as the main nitrogen source.
- Ammonium sulfate: Provides nitrogen and sulfur.
- Ammonium nitrate: High nitrogen content, easily soluble in water.
- Ammonium chloride: Provides nitrogen and chlorine.
(2) Phosphorus source:
- Superphosphate: Provides phosphorus and calcium.
- Heavy superphosphate: The phosphorus content is higher than superphosphate.
- Monoammonium phosphate (MAP): Provides nitrogen and phosphorus.
- Diammonium phosphate (DAP): High nitrogen and phosphorus content.
(3) Potassium source:
- Potassium chloride: Common potassium source, high potassium content.
- Potassium sulfate: Provides potassium and sulfur, suitable for chlorine-sensitive crops.
(4) Medium and trace elements:
- Calcium: Such as limestone and gypsum.
- Magnesium: Such as magnesium sulfate. Sulfur: such as ammonium sulfate and potassium sulfate.
- Trace elements: such as borax, zinc sulfate, copper sulfate, manganese sulfate, etc.
(5) Fillers:
Limestone powder, clay, etc., used to adjust nutrient content and physical properties.
(6) Additives:
Anti-caking agents: such as talcum powder, to prevent fertilizer from agglomerating.
Slow-release agents: such as sulfur-coated urea, to control the rate of nutrient release.
The above raw materials can be mixed in proportion to make compound fertilizers with different ratios to meet crop needs.
