Formulation For Success – Fluid Bed Systemes as Key for the Production of Speciality Fertilizers

From improving durability and flowability through dust reduction to a pronounced depot effect or a targeted nutrient supply via better active ingredient distribution, fluidised bed technology can deliver many benefits. The shape and size of the fertilizer granules can be determined within a defined range. The quantity of fertilizer components delivered to the soil can be adapted optimally, and significantly higher product qualities can be achieved. Solubility and protection against external influences can also be markedly improved.

Particles in an onion look – Drying of liquids by fluid bed spray granulation

Particles in an onion look – drying of liquids by fluid bed spray granulation. If liquid starting products are to be converted into bulk materials, both the spray drying and fluid bed spray granulation processes are used. The choice of technology depends on which particle properties need to be set to enable specific applications. (German article)

Phosphate fertilizer from sewage sludge ash

The amended Sewage Sludge Ordinance gradually restricts direct agricultural utilization and requires operators of large sewage treatment plants to recover the phosphate bound in sewage sludge and ashes. A new approach makes it possible to fully recycle sewage sludge ashes and make the phosphate available for standard and compound fertilizers. (article in German language)
