Our photo this week shows an organic material that has been granulated into a more usable form.

The opportunity for granulating organic waste materials into organic-based fertilizer products has been an increasingly popular topic, as the need to manage wastes in a sustainable way becomes ever more important.

The term “organic waste” covers a broad range of materials and can be anything from cattle manure, to municipal sewage sludge, and even food waste. Organic wastes come from a variety of sources, all falling under three main categories: agricultural, industrial, and municipal.

Granulating these wastes into organic-based fertilizers offers a sustainable solution for handling a multitude of wastes. Furthermore, granulation offers a product that is storable, easier to handle and apply, and is clean, safe, and dry.

FEECO has been helping companies turn their organic wastes into value-added products and organic-based fertilizers for decades. Our state-of-the-art lab facility allows us to test feasibility and develop and scale-up a process that works for your material.
