In addition, for the large capacity of compost and limestone fertilizer processing, it is equipped with rubber lining. This can greatly enhance the erosion resistance of the fertilizer equipment.
Model | Capacity (t/h) | Length (mm) | Power (kw) | Feeding Moisture | Granule Size (mm) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
SXZGZ-2080 | 8-15 | 8000 | 18.5 | 20%-40% | 3-6 |
How about the detailed design of the granular lime compost fertilizer project in Ethiopia?
- Initially, compost material, which may include manure waste, agricultural waste, etc is fully mixed with lime powder at a required ratio.
- Then, introducing the mixture into the compost granulation machine, which forms the substance into commercial fertilizer pellets.

- Finally, packing finished lime compost pellet to sell.
Jaw crusher → Raymond mill → dynamatic batching equipment → double shaft mixer → SXZGZ-2080 drum granulator → SXGS-1870 rotary screener → SXHG-2020 rotary dryer and cooler → dust collectors → double bucket granule packing machine.
