What can rotary dryer machine do for fertilizer making?
Rotary dryer machine plays an important role in your fertilizer making process, especially when you adopt wet granulation method in fertilizer making. Why? What benefits can the fertilizer drying machine create for you?
Make your final fertilizer easier to transport
In general, after wet granulation, the moisture content of your fertilizer pellets is still at 30%. But by using rotary dryer machine, you can reduce the water content to 10%. In this way, you can produce fertilizer granules with a higher hardness. That is, it has a lower possibility of pulverization and is more convenient for transportation.
Prolong your fertilizer storage time
In addition, preparing fertilizer with rotary drying machine is also beneficial for prolonging the storage time. Especially when you make organic fertilizer. Why? Because the lower the moisture content of fertilizer pellets you produce, the lower the possibility of mold and deterioration. Hence, it can be stored for a longer time.

Feeding fertilizer materials
When the temperature at the bottom of the drying equipment reaches suitable level, belt conveyor or bucket elevator will transport fertilizer to feeding port. Then under the action of drum rotating and gravity, the fertilizer will evenly disperse in the dryer and roll continuously.
Injecting hot air to dry fertilizer
Then the hot air will be injected into the dryer to contact the organic or NPK fertilizer making materials. Then it will transfer heat to the material through heat conduction, convection, radiation, etc. Therefore, the temperature of the material will continue to rise and the moisture will continue to volatilize.
Discharging finished fertilizer
Finally, the fertilizer products that meet the required moisture level are discharged from the outlet. While the unqualified fertilizer will be left in the equipment for drying continuously. But besides them, there also is some gas waste generated. How to treat waste gases? For this, we can provide you with professional dust collectors.
