To better assist you in finding the material-specific information you’re looking for, we’ve developed a series of Material Profiles, …
This week’s photo highlights a paddle mixer’s binder spray system. When working with the tumble-growth agglomeration method, paddle mixers and other agglomeration equipment such as pin mixers or disc pelletizers regularly use a binding agent during processing. In fact, binder selection is one of the …
Since 1951, FEECO has designed and built fertilizer granulation systems, be it single pieces of equipment, or complete turnkey systems for Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), and Sulfur (S) fertilizers. We’re experienced in all parts of the process and have provided thermal processing, agglomeration …
This week’s photo shows agglomerate samples from FEECO’s state-of-the-art lab. The briquettes, center gray, were processed with a briquetter. Briquetters utilize mechanical force to shape material fines into larger, denser products. They are particularly useful in creating larger agglomerates, such as charcoal and water softener …
Since 1951, FEECO has served a wide customer base with our agglomeration, thermal processing, fertilizer systems, and material handling technologies. During that time, we’ve developed a lasting reputation for manufacturing original equipment and process systems for all major industry segments around the world. As such, …
This week’s photo shows material being discharged from a conveyor in FEECO’s lab facility. The conveyor shown is transferring raw material to a paddle mixer, where it will undergo conditioning. While the main focus of FEECO’s lab tends to be around agglomeration and thermal testing, …
