The equipment and processing flow design of the entire NPK fertilizer production line aim to efficiently mix nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium into fertilizer granules to meet the demand for high-quality compound fertilizers in modern agriculture. The following is the equipment configuration and main processing flow of the NPK fertilizer production line:

Equipment configuration

Raw material storage warehouse: used for storing nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other raw materials, usually including multiple independent warehouses to ensure independent storage and measurement of raw materials.

Measuring equipment: including electronic scales, screw feeders, etc., used for precise control and measurement of the amount of each raw material added, ensuring the accuracy of the formula.

Mixing equipment: such as double shaft mixers, paddle mixers, etc., used to thoroughly mix the measured raw materials to ensure uniform distribution of fertilizer components.

Granulation equipment: such as drum granulators, disc granulators, etc., used to process mixed powdered fertilizer raw materials into granules.

Drying equipment: such as rotary drum dryer, used to dry granulated fertilizers, reduce their moisture content, and improve storage stability.

Cooling equipment: such as drum cooling machine, used to cool the dried fertilizer particles to avoid clumping due to high temperature.

Screening equipment: used to screen unqualified particles, ensuring that the particle size and shape of the final product meet the standards.

Coating equipment (optional): used to coat fertilizer particles to improve their appearance and physical properties, such as moisture resistance and storage stability.

Finished product packaging equipment: including automatic weighing machines and packaging machines, used to package finished fertilizers according to standard weight.

Conveyor equipment: such as belt conveyors, screw conveyors, etc., used to connect various devices and achieve automated material transportation.

NPK fertilizer production line processing flow

Raw material storage and measurement: Nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other raw materials are stored separately in raw material storage warehouses, and the ratio and amount of raw materials added are precisely controlled through measuring equipment.

Mixing: Send the measured raw materials into the mixing equipment for thorough mixing to ensure uniform distribution of each component.

Granulation: Send the mixed raw materials into granulation equipment and process them into the required fertilizer granules.

Drying: Send the granulated fertilizer into a drying device to remove excess moisture and improve the stability of the granules.

Cooling: Send the dried fertilizer into a cooling device to lower the temperature and prevent clumping.

Screening: Use screening equipment to screen out unqualified particles to ensure the quality of the finished product.

Coating (optional): Coating fertilizer particles to improve their physical properties and storage stability.

Finished product packaging: Using automatic weighing and packaging equipment, the finished fertilizer is packaged according to standard weight for sale or storage.

The equipment configuration and processing flow of the entire NPK fertilizer production line ensure high efficiency and product quality in fertilizer production, and are an important component of modern fertilizer production.
