Pakistan, which is located in South Asia, has the hot and arid climate with an average annual rainfall of less than 250 mm, resulting in a relative scarcity of water resources. As a result, most Pakistani businesses seek the fertilizer production projects for saving water resources. On 8th September 2023, a customer called Henry from OCI in Pakistan contacted us for 1t/h phosphatic fertilizer granulation plan without water. Nevertheless, he hoped to purchase and utilize the abundant mineral resources in the local area to produce phosphate fertilizer pellets such as diammonium phosphate, rock phosphate, and ammonium phosphate. Moreover, they need granulate them to hard granules with 3-4mm diameter which can not be easily broken. For this, we recommended our simple dry granulation proposal. The following are the specific details of this case.

How to Design Dry Granulator for Hard Phosphate Fertilizer Pellet Production?

Still, Henry expressed his interest in our press double roller granulator. Certainly, due to its specific structure and operational advantages, it is suitable for processing hard phosphorus substances. Thus, we recommend the model of YSXDG-1T. Moreover, it offers a phosphatic fertilizer granulation capacity of 1 t/h with its high-pressure extrusion technology, which meeting the production needs of this Pakistani customer’s company. Here are special designs we create for Henry to granulate hard phosphorus materials.

Double roller press granulator

employs a dry granulation technique, producing granules without the need for water or any binders. Or for better agglomeration into balls, you can add less than 20% water during the extrusion granulation process. In particular, this benefits for phosphate-based fertilizers, which are sensitive to moisture and can degrade in humid conditions. Meanwhile, the elimination of water in the granulation process not only preserves the stability of phosphorus materials but also aligns with regional requirements for water conservation in Pakistan.

Besides, the properties are changeable for phosphorus powder procession under the heat. However, this granulation machine just meets the manufacturing requirements without the drum dryer, making traditional drum drying methods unnecessary and saving equipment purchase costs.

Addressing the specific needs of the OCI firm, the double roller granulator can handle a broad spectrum of raw materials, including diammonium phosphate, rock phosphate, and ammonium phosphate. Besides, this device is particularly appropriate for the Pakistani market, as it effectively processes the powdered, crystalline, or amorphous forms of phosphorus compounds prevalent in your production line. Utilizing mechanical pressure, the granulator compacts and agglomerates input materials into durable granules. Thus, these granules you can produce are not only robust but are also easy to handle, transport, and apply in various agricultural and industrial applications.

You can regulate the granulation process in this granulator precisely, allowing for adjustments in pressure, moisture content, and other parameters. Then, you will get phosphorus pellets in pillow, semicircle, flat ball, etc. shapes. What’s more, it produces uniform granules, ensuring consistent nutrient distribution when serving as NP fertilizers. Your market in Pakistan will benefit from these varied pellet shapes, appealing to diverse agricultural needs and preferences. This versatility gives you a significant competitive edge, positioning your products as top choices in the local market. Therefore, investing in a double roller granulator will enhance your market presence and profitability.

Double roller press granulation produces minimal dust during operation. This is crucial for phosphorus substances. Generally specking, phosphorus powder is flammable, and excessive dust can cause a fire. Moreover, the phosphorus powder is hazardous for human health. Additionally, this method is environmentally friendly as it does not involve the use of harmful chemicals.

Which Equipment Is Suitable for Phosphorus Substances Granulaton in Pakistan?

  

At the beginning,  Yushunxin double roller press granulator is suitable for processing phosphorus substances due to its specific design and operational advantages. What’s more, our components such as the frame is made of new metal that is resistant to corrosion and wear. Moreover, its bearing framebody is made of excellent quality and anti-corrosion materials with good stability. So our equipment completely meets the Pakistani customer’s requirement of handling hard materials.

Here are other reasons why it well suits for Pakistani company to handle hard phosphorus materials.

Recommending YSX Cost-efficient Equipment for Hard Fertilzer Granules Production

This Pakistani customer first discussed purchasing some main equipment for trial production. And he chose the granulation plan with the capacity of 1 tons per hour. Furthermore, he hopes to keep the budget within 2.2 million Pakistani Rupees ($8,000). Therefore, we recommended a double roller granulator, a chain crusher, and a pellet screening machine for him.

Roller Granulator for Hard Granule Production

.Firstly, our company’s double roller granulator perfectly meets the needs of Pakistani customers producing diammonium phosphate, rock phosphate, and ammonium phosphate. This machine, with 20CrMnTi alloy roller dies, ensures durable and hard granules that resist breaking. Moreover, the model of YSXDG-1T offers a production capacity of 1 t/h with its high-pressure extrusion technology. Besides, we recommend he uses 2-level roller molds to achieve greater granule hardness. However, the roller’s lifespan typically reaches 1,500 tons. Therefore, we suggest to stock extra roller molds for uninterrupted production. In general, the price of this single granulator for 1t/h output is about 734,000 PKR ($2,650). But he finally purchased 2-grade roller dies with the total cost of 887,500 PKR($3,200)

YSXDG-1T 15 3-10 150*220 1450*800*1450

Chain Crusher for Precise Material Preparation

Secondly, the kinds and qualities of phosphate substances will have an effect on the double roller granulator’s efficacy. For example, some phosphate rocks, such as apatite or calcium phosphate, require pre-treatment such as crushing, grinding, and activation to enhance surface area and plasticity. These pre-treatment techniques will help the granulator prepare phosphorus particles more effectively. In this regard, our chain crusher is appropriate for crushing blocky materials in the manufacturing of phosphorus substance as well as crushing returned materials.

In addition, it efficiently processes raw materials like graphene powder, talc powder, and calcium carbonate to the finer degree. Also, its high-speed rotating chains with sturdy steel ensure consistent and precise crushing, which is crucial for subsequent granulation processes. Additionally, its adjustable inlet and outlet sizes cater to specific production requirements. With anti-corrosive materials, this crusher withstands the rigorous demands of the Pakistani industrial government sector. So the price of 1t/h chain crusher is 374,000 PKR ($1,350).
