Pugmill mixers are a type of continuous horizontal mixer used for mixing, conditioning, and granulating bulk solid materials of nearly all types. These industrial mixers can be used as a stand-alone agglomeration device, or as part of a larger agglomeration setup. However they are used, …
The pugmill mixer, also known as a pug mill or paddle mixer, is a type of horizontal industrial mixer used for processing bulk solid materials in conditioning, de-dusting, and granulation applications. This type of mixer is widely employed throughout various industries as a means of …
Potassium and ammonium salts are essential in supplementing crop nutritional requirements. While the granulation of these materials has traditionally been carried out via roll compaction, the demand for a more round and less angular product is causing some fertilizer producers to introduce an additional production …
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 …
Iron oxides, of which there are 16, are chemical compounds made up of iron and oxygen. These diverse chemical compounds are widely employed by various industries for their use as pigments. Termed iron oxide pigments (IOPs), IOPs have become an indispensable material for one industry …
In the early stages of designing and developing a pelletizing plant, many questions often arise: what equipment will best suit my process; do I need a binder; how tall will my building have to be, and more. While this process prompts a host of questions, …
Why is material knowledge fundamental to process and product design? To answer that question, let’s suppose that you operate a glass treatment facility that sorts, crushes, and then melts recycled glass into a new product. You notice there is a significant loss in crushed glass …
When looking to agglomerate material, many options are available. Agglomeration equipment manufacturers often specialize in a particular industry, type of agglomeration equipment, or category of agglomeration solutions. As the capabilities, offerings, and experience of each manufacturer vary significantly, finding the right agglomeration equipment provider requires …
Agglomeration (particle size enlargement) is widely used throughout the agriculture industry to minimize dust, improve handling and transportation characteristics, and enhance product performance – among other things. The practice offers benefits to everything from fertilizers and soil amendments, to animal feed products, and even pesticides. …
Companies that use heap leaching to extract precious metals such as copper, gold, silver, or uranium ore have come to rely on FEECO for their production needs, from preliminary consultation and feasibility/materials testing, to custom equipment manufacturing and system design. FEECO can even offer a …
