A disc granulator, also known as a disc granulator, is a type of granulation equipment used in the fertilizer industry to turn powdered materials into granules. It gets its name from its shape, which resembles a large disc or pan.
The disc granulator consists of a rotating disc tilted at a certain angle. Powdered materials are fed onto the disc, and when the disc rotates, the material adheres to its surface due to the combined action of gravity and centrifugal force. As the material moves along the disc, liquid binder or water is continuously sprayed to promote agglomeration.
The rotation of the disk causes the material to tumble and collide with other particles, forming particles. The size and shape of the particles can be controlled by adjusting the disk's speed, tilt angle and liquid injection volume.
Disc granulators are commonly used to produce fertilizer granules because they can handle a variety of materials, including organic fertilizers, compound fertilizers, and other powdered substances. They are favored for their high granulation efficiency, uniform particle size distribution, and ability to produce dense and durable granules.
Advantages of Disc Granulators:
Uniform Granules: Disc granulators are known for producing granules with consistent size and shape, which is vital in applications like fertilizer production.
Adjustable Parameters: Operators can easily control the angle and speed of the pan to achieve the desired granule size, making disc granulators highly versatile.
Efficiency: These machines are efficient in terms of material utilization and energy consumption.
Low Maintenance: Disc granulators are generally low-maintenance machines with few moving parts, reducing the risk of breakdowns and minimizing downtime.
Eco-Friendly: The granulation process is relatively eco-friendly, as it reduces dust emissions and minimizes material waste.
