While agglomeration is most often considered as a means to a product’s end, in some cases, it also frequently serves as an important stepping stone behind the scenes in the production of other materials and products. In these cases, agglomeration, or pelletizing, is a vital …
Fly ash is a fine, powder-like material generated from coal-burning power plants. And despite an increase toward more sustainable energy production, coal-burning power plants are still prevalent, producing fly ash that could serve as a valuable commodity. Thus now is an important time as any …
Disc pelletizers are a type of agitation agglomeration equipment used to process fines into rounded pellets or granules. They are favored by industries ranging from specialty chemicals to soil amendments for their flexibility in particle size control and the refined pellet product they produce. The …
The soil amendment industry is one of constantly rising competition; consumers are becoming more discerning, expecting more from the products they choose to put their money in, and the science around soil health is continually advancing, prompting demand for more specialized products. The use of …
Disc pelletizers (pan granulators) are an invaluable tool in processing powders and fines into easily handled, dust-free agglomerates fit for use in any industry. One of the primary reasons for which this type of agitation agglomeration device is chosen, is for the high level of …
The disc pelletizer, or pan granulator, is the device of choice for processing powdered bulk solids and fines into rounded, dust-free granules, improving handling and transportation qualities, enhancing performance, and creating a premium product. As with most process equipment, choosing the right manufacturer can quickly …
Pelletizing, a form of tumble growth agglomeration, continues to be employed in an increasing number of applications, lending an array of benefits to raw materials, end products, and production lines. As demand for nickel continues to rise in the transition to a low-carbon economy, pelletizing …
Pelletized limestone is commonly used as a soil additive for agricultural purposes. Composed of calcium carbonate, this mineral neutralizes a soil’s acidity, raises the pH level, and improves the absorption of soil nutrients. While limestone is available in powdered form for agricultural applications, this formulation …
Pelletizer plant process audits provide a valuable tool to plant managers struggling with changes in production, under-performance, yield, and more; even for those pelletizing plants performing well, a process audit can reveal inefficiencies that when corrected, can significantly add to the bottom line. The following …
Disc pelletizers, also commonly called pan granulators, are a type of agitation (tumble-growth/non-pressure/wet granulation) agglomeration equipment used throughout various industries to pelletize fines into rounded granules. These diverse pelletizing discs are often selected for the refined granular product they produce, their low recycle rate, and …
