When you want to make chemical fertilizers, you need to pay attention to several aspects. This includes raw materials, technologies, equipment and costs. Finally, It is essential to ensure the safety of your chemical fertilizer plant. As a professional fertilizer equipment manufacturer, YUSHUNXIN can not only provide you with suitable compound fertilizer production line, but also offer you many tips to improve your manufacturing. For example, the choice of raw materials, cost reduction, etc. If you have other needs, you can also contact us immediately to get the best solutions.

What are the commonly used raw materials in a chemical fertilizer production line ?
The choice of raw materials plays an important role in the manufacture of compound fertilizers. Indeed, it is directly related to the type of fertilizer you want to prepare and the production line you can adopt. In general, you can consider two aspects :
Types of chemical materials
To a certain extent, the type of chemical materials determines the type of final fertilizer produced.
1. If you want to make nitrogen fertilizers, you can use as raw materials: urea, chlorure d’ammonium, sulfate d’ammonium, nitrate d’ammonium, nitrate de calcium, etc.
2. When you want to produce fertilizers rich in phosphate, monoammonium phosphate (MAP), diammonium phosphate (DAP), le superphosphate (SSP), etc, are great options.
3. For the manufacture of potash fertilizers, it is advisable to choose potassium chloride (MOP), potassium sulfate (SOP), le carbonate de potassium, vegetable ash, etc.

Form of raw materials

In general, we recommend making compound fertilizers from chemical powders, as it facilitates the production of pellets in a smoother manner. If your raw materials are rocks, you need to grind them into powder first. Can chemical granules be used directly as materials? ? Of course. In this case, you can choose our fertilizer mixing system to produce compound fertilizers.
THE 4 main technologies for manufacturing compound fertilizers
According to your raw material requirements, YUSHUNXIN designs different compound fertilizer production lines adapted to your needs.
Production of powder fertilizers
If you plan to use chemical powders and want to make low cost compound fertilizers, you can choose our powder fertilizer production line. Thanks to the dosage, when grinding, to the mixture, au tamisage et au conditionnement, it allows production to be completed quickly and easily. What's more, as it requires little equipment, its price remains economical.


NPK fertilizer granulation line
When you need a plan to produce NPK pellets from chemical powders, YUSHUNXIN NPK granulation system is a better option. As its name suggests, a suitable NPK granulator is essential. YUSHUNXIN can provide you with disc granulator, un granulateur à tambour rotatif or a roller granulator according to your needs. In general, with the first two processes (wet granulation), it is necessary to add the drying and cooling steps. En revanche, after granulation by dry extrusion, NPK granules can be directly packaged.
Production of SSP phosphate fertilizers
We also offer a SSP production line, widely used to transform chemical rocks and liquid materials into fertilizers. Dans ce procédé, you must first grind the rocks into powder. For that, we recommend the use of a Raymond mill suitable for the manufacture of mineral powders. Ensuite, powdered material is mixed with liquid, then undergoes acidification and aging to make it suitable for the production of chemical fertilizers. You can then choose to produce powdered or granulated fertilizers.


Setting up a fertilizer blending plant
Finally, for those who want to directly use chemical granules to produce compound fertilizers, we designed a fertilizer mixing plan. It consists of a dosing machine, a BB mixer and an automatic bagging system. It is an ideal choice if you want to produce bulk NPK fertilizers in a simple way and with reduced investment.
What is the cost of manufacturing chemical fertilizers ?
When setting up a chemical fertilizer production plant, cost is a key factor. According to your budget, YUSHUNXIN can offer you a suitable investment plan and the necessary equipment. En règle générale, the cost of production of compound fertilizers includes purchase of equipment, the layout of the site, la main-d’œuvre et la consommation d’énergie.
Which compound fertilizer production line is the least expensive ?
For those who want to produce at a lower cost, powder fertilizer production lines and mixing systems are excellent choices. They only require a few machines. The less equipment there is, the lower the cost. What's more, less equipment also means a reduced installation area, which further helps reduce expenses. Even for a capacity of 20 t/h, a surface of 800 has 2 000 m² is enough (for information only).


Which manufacturing plan suits a larger budget ?
However, if you have sufficient budget and want to produce better quality fertilizers, it is better to opt for our NPK granulation line or our SSP production line. These processes combine various raw materials to generate pellets, thereby reducing the risk of nutrient stratification during transport and storage. What's more, a major advantage of YUSHUNXIN equipment is their low energy consumption. Long term, these systems can generate significant profits.
How to ensure the safety of chemical fertilizer production ?
Add a gas treatment system
The manufacture of compound fertilizers generates exhaust gases, which can seriously pollute the environment. It is therefore necessary to integrate a gas treatment system.
Check and maintain equipment regularly
Regular monitoring of machine operation allows breakdowns to be detected and repaired in time. Regular maintenance extends the life of equipment


Reduce dust pollution
As production often uses powders, this results in the dispersion of dust into the air, harmful to workers' health. YUSHUNXIN can provide solutions such as dust covers, dust collectors and settling chambers.
Develop emergency plans
Establishing emergency plans is useful to quickly manage accidents and reduce losses.
Recent examples of compound fertilizer production machines
We have recently established several factories equipped with YUSHUNXIN machines. Among them : un production of compound fertilizers npk mixtures in France, as well as a phosphate fertilizer production unit in Morocco, etc.
Furthermore, YUSHUNXIN also offers various solutions for manufacturing of organic fertilizers, organic fertilizer production system and design of a biochar fertilizer plant. Capabilities range from 1 t/h to 30 t/h, with raw materials ranging from cow manure to chicken droppings, and costs varying from 10 000$ has 500 000$. Come and discover them now !
