Preparatory Work for Establishing an Organic Fertilizer Factory

To establish an organic fertilizer factory, it is essential to have the corresponding land and factory premises.

A large-scale organic fertilizer factory typically includes: a residential area, an office area, a fermentation workshop, a raw material storage workshop, a secondary stacking workshop, a production workshop, and a finished product warehouse.

The primary raw material for producing organic fertilizer is livestock and poultry manure. For instance, wet pig manure has a high moisture content, requiring the addition of auxiliary materials such as crop straw to regulate the water level. Users interested in establishing an organic fertilizer factory must ensure a sufficient supply of raw materials and auxiliary ingredients, such as proximity to livestock farms, as a favorable condition.

Based on a pig farm with 1,000 heads, the annual organic fertilizer production is estimated to be around 14,000 tons. The supply of auxiliary materials should not be less than 5,600 tons per year. These materials include, but are not limited to, organic waste such as peat, wood chips, straw, soybean meal, and mushroom residues.

Choose between producing powdered organic fertilizer or granular organic fertilizer based on the process

When the above material conditions are met and the capability to establish a factory is available, corresponding production processes shall be formulated based on relevant market research and end-user requirements. Currently, solid organic fertilizer products are broadly categorized into powdered organic fertilizers and granular organic fertilizers. Further classification includes biological agent organic fertilizers, organic-inorganic compound fertilizers, round granular organic fertilizers, and columnar granular organic fertilizers, among others.

Process and Equipment Prices for Powdered Organic Fertilizers

Taking the annual production of 10,000 tons of powdered organic fertilizer as an example, the required equipment includes: an organic fertilizer fermentation and turning machine, a forklift feed hopper, an organic fertilizer crusher, a drum screening machine, a powder packaging machine, a belt conveyor, and a control cabinet.

Technology and Equipment Costs for Granular Organic Fertilizers

Taking the production of 10,000 tons of powdered organic fertilizer annually as an example, the required equipment includes: an organic fertilizer fermentation and turning machine, a forklift feeding hopper, an organic fertilizer crusher, a drum screening machine (powder), a twin-shaft mixer, a uniform feeding machine, a stirring-tooth pelletizing machine, a drum dryer, a drum cooling machine, a drum screening machine (pellets), a cyclone dust collector, a water curtain dust removal system, a pellet packaging machine, and a control cabinet.
