PHOSPHATES PROCESSING
Whether you’re working with granular fertilizers, animal feed, or other phosphate products, we can assist you with all of your phosphate processing needs; we have you covered from a single piece of equipment, to a complete process system. We can also assist in process development and material testing, as well as process scale-up and the manufacture of custom processing equipment to produce the results you’re looking for.
PHOSPHATE FERTILIZER PRODUCTION
We offer the best in fertilizer production equipment and systems for all of your phosphatic fertilizer needs, whether you’re producing Mono-Ammonium Phosphate (MAP), Di-Ammonium Phosphate (DAP), Triple Super Phosphate (TSP), Single Super Phosphate (SSP), NPK blends, or otherwise.
PHOSPHORIC ANIMAL FEED GRANULATION
Our proprietary approach to animal feed granulation provides an improved product over traditional methods for producing Mono-Calcium Phosphate (MCP), Di-Calcium Phosphate (DCP), and De-Fluorinated Phosphate (DFP).
UPGRADING PHOSPHATE ORES
We can provide a variety of services and process solutions around upgrading phosphate ores, from batch and pilot-scale testing, to custom rotary kilns designed around your unique source of phosphate ore and process goals.
MATERIALS
FEECO has extensive experience around phosphate materials, including:
- MCP & DCP
- NPK
- SSP & TSP
- MAP & DAP
- Phosphate Ore
- and more…
EQUIPMENT
MATERIAL PROCESSING
Agglomeration & Granulation
FEECO is a leader in agglomeration equipment and can provide individual pieces of equipment, as well as complete process systems for pelletizing and granulating phosphates, whether that be for animal feed, fertilizer products, or otherwise.
Our granulation drums, hammer mills, and complete granulation systems are relied on by the fertilizer industry’s top producers.
Similarly, the animal feed industry relies on our pug mills and high speed mixers for the best in MCP and DCP animal feed granulation systems and equipment.
Rotary Dryers & Coolers
Our rotary dryers and coolers are the industry standard for drying and cooling phosphate products efficiently and reliably. Our robust drying and cooling systems can be integrated into fertilizer, animal feed, or phosphate ore upgrading systems.
Rotary Kilns
FEECO rotary kilns are the thermal processing tool of choice for upgrading phosphate ores.
BULK MATERIAL HANDLING
FEECO also provides a comprehensive line of bulk material handling equipment for all of your phosphate handling needs. We offer custom bucket elevators, belt conveyors, reversing shuttle conveyors, and steep incline conveyors, along with pieces to increase the flexibility of your handling system, such as belt trippers and plows, and belt feeders.
We can supply a single piece of handling equipment to fit into your existing process, or a complete bulk handling system as part of an overall process solution.
PLANT AND PILOT SCALE PROCESS TESTING AND DESIGN
The FEECO Innovation Center is a unique testing facility where we can test your material at both batch and pilot scale in order to work out process variables and design commercial-scale units, as well as scale up the process.
Whether you are working with ore, animal feed, or fertilizer products, the FEECO Innovation Center is well-equipped to suit a wide range of testing needs, including granulation, drying, and even high temperature thermal processing. We can test on a single piece of equipment, or a continuous process loop.
We offer comprehensive testing services in four categories:
Feasibility/Proof of Concept: An initial, non-witnessed batch testing phase in which the possibility of creating a product is explored.
Proof of Product: A more in-depth batch testing phase in which more time is spent determining whether a product can be made to desired specifications.
Proof of Process: A continuous testing phase that aims to establish the equipment setup and parameters required for continuous production of your specific material.
Process/Product Optimization: An in-depth study to optimize your specific material’s characteristics and/or production parameters in an industrial setting.
