FEECO GRANULATION DRUMS
With an extensive background in fertilizer production, FEECO has built a reputation for quality, efficiency, and longevity in granulation drums.
We offer various configurations to suit your fertilizer processing needs, whether organic, or inorganic.
Granulation drums work by tumbling material in a rotating drum, typically in the presence of a binder. The binder causes the fines to become tacky and allows them to pick up additional fines, forming agglomerates in a process referred to as coalescence. The tumbling action helps to round the agglomerates and create a homogenous mixture.
Granulation drums are frequently used in fertilizer production, when agglomeration must be combined with a chemical reaction. A pipe reactor can be integrated to increase efficiency where applicable.

FEECO is capable of meeting the requirements necessary for CE marking equipment.

All FEECO equipment and process systems can be outfitted with the latest in automation controls from Rockwell Automation. The unique combination of proprietary Rockwell Automation controls and software, combined with our extensive experience in process design and enhancements with hundreds of materials provides an unparalleled experience for customers seeking innovative process solutions and equipment.
