Small Scale Organic Fertilizer Plant

Maybe you have been paying attention to the organic fertilizer industry, maybe you are looking for an opportunity to develop the organic fertilizer business, or you have decided to build an organic fertilizer plant. But you are hesitant to build a large-scale or small-scale plant. For most start-up entrepreneurs, we recommend that you start with a small organic fertilizer plant. Because small-scale fertilizer plants have the characteristic of low investment, and you can be operated simply. Generally, a small scale organic fertilizer plant can produce 500-1000kg fertilizer per hour. And it can well manage the manure produced by small-scale farms.

When you start to build a small organic fertilizer plant, you should have a project plan that includes raw materials, plant site, and production equipment.

1. About raw materials. There are generally two sources of raw materials, one is the organic waste generated by your own farm, and the other is the animal manure you buy from the local farm. If you need to buy the raw materials, you should have a survey before building an organic fertilizer factory.
2. Plant location. Before choosing the location of the factory, you need to understand the relevant local policies. You have to avoid areas which prohibited by the local government.
3. Production equipment. High-quality machines are necessary for producing organic fertilizer in your small-scale organic fertilizer production plant.

In your small scale organic fertilizer plant you need a lot of equipment to form your fertilizer production line. And a complete organic fertilizer production plant includes: fermentation compost turner, organic fertilizer crushing machine, fertilizer blending equipment, granulator machine, dryer and cooler machine, screening machine for organic fertilizer, conveying machines and so on. If you are planning to build fertilizer plant with an annual output of about 3,000 tons, then the following equipment may be suitable for you.

There are two machines which are suitable for small-scale organic fertilizer company. And both them can help you shorten the fermentation time. But their workplaces are different. The groove type compost turning machine runs in the groove, so you need compost the raw materials in a groove. The self-moving type compost turner can work on the ground.

After you compost the organic materials, there will be some lumps. So we provide you with semi-wet material crusher, which is a professional crushing machine for crushing of high moisture materials. It is always used to crush organic compost fertilizer, livestock and poultry manure and other organic materials.

In order to get good raw materials for granulating, we have blending machine for you. And you will like the double shafts horizontal mixer, which has a fast mixing speed and good uniformity. Its working principle is that the materials go into the mixing tank, then through a pair of screw shafts with opposite rotating, they can be stirred uniform.

When you get compost, you can use them to make fertilizer granules. The new type organic fertilizer granulator can help you. It makes use of high-speed rotary mechanical agitation force and resulting aerodynamic force to work. And it makes fine powder materials continuously achieve the process of mixing, granulating, balling and densification. What’s more, this granulation method has high granulating rate and the energy is saved. So it is used widely in the manufacturing organic fertilizer business, especially it frequently appears in the small scale organic fertilizer plant.

Because many granulator is wet granulation, the pellets moisture is little high. And the dried fertilizer is easy to transport and store. So you can use rotary drum drying machine and  cooling machine to decrease the fertilizer moisture.  And the dryer and cooler are usually used in conjunction.

For getting qualified fertilizer, you can use our rotary screening machine to screen the dried fertilzier. And it is a special new type self-cleaning screening equipment with screening capacity is 1 t/h-20 t/h.

After screening the organic fertilizer, you can use the conveying device to transport it. And the main conveying device is mobile belt conveyor. It can improve your productivityin your small scale organic fertilizer plant.

Tips:

Besides above fertilizer equipment, we can also provide you with the following things.

1. Other fertilizer equipment you can also choose. We have a lot of other organic fertilizer production equipment. And you can tell us your requirements, we can customize the machines for you.

• Choose an equipment manufacturer (sx) with good after-sales service. A good fertilizer equipment manufacturer will provide you a good after-sales service, which will help you train your employees to operate the machine. It can ensure that your production can run normally and achieve economic profits quickly.
