This week’s photo highlights a fertilizer granulation plant.

The pilot plant is equipped with granulation, drying, cooling, and coating capabilities.

A granulation drum is pictured at the top of the photo, a coating drum is at the bottom left, and a rotary dryer is pictured at the very bottom.

FEECO designed this pilot plant for a global fertilizer producer, to allow them to test products on a continuous pilot scale on their own time, and at their own facility.

The granulation plant was designed to accommodate a variety of product testing. This gives the fertilizer producer flexibility in their research and development, and also allows them to test specific parts of the process in a continuous process loop.

FEECO stands for Fertilizer Engineering and Equipment Company. For over 65 years, we led the way in custom fertilizer granulation equipment design and manufacturing for the production of both organic and inorganic materials.
