Micro-pelletizing is the process of agglomerating material fines into small pellets, ranging in size from 20-60 mesh. Like all agglomeration techniques, micro-pelletizing provides a host of benefits including:

  • Significant dust reduction/elimination: micro-pelletizing prevents material from becoming windblown, and thus less product is lost due to dust.
  • Improved handling and transportation: micro-pelletized materials are much easier to handle and transport compared to a dusty material.
  • Improved application and use: micro-pellets can move through spreading equipment more easily than a powdered material, and can break down faster than their larger agglomerate counterparts.
