Dual-Function Production Line! NPK and Potassium Chloride Combined Production Line
The NPK and potassium chloride combined production line is an integrated solution designed specifically for the "flexible production" needs of fertilizer companies. Through modular equipment configuration and process switching design, it can flexibly produce NPK compound fertilizer (multiple ratios) and potassium chloride granular fertilizer, achieving efficient capacity utilization of "one set of equipment, two products." It adapts to the diversified market demands of large-scale fertilizer production enterprises, significantly reducing equipment investment and site occupancy costs. Core Design Logic and Full-Process Configuration of the Production Line The production line is based on "raw material sharing, process differentiation, and equipment universality." It integrates key processes such as raw material pretreatment, precise batching, granulation, and post-processing. Through local equipment switching and parameter adjustments, it achieves rapid conversion between the two products. A single production line can achieve a capacity of 10-15 tons (NPK compound fertilizer) or 12-18 tons (potassium chloride granular fertilizer). I. Raw Material Pretreatment and Sharing Unit: Laying the Foundation for Dual-Product Production (I) Raw Material Storage and Precise Batching Multi-Warehouse Storage System: Equipped with 6 raw material warehouses (total volume 150m³), storing urea, monoammonium phosphate, potassium chloride (main raw material), binder, trace elements, and functional additives respectively. The warehouse bodies are made of carbon steel with an anti-corrosion coating (compatible with the corrosiveness of potassium chloride). Vibrators and star-shaped unloaders are installed at the bottom to prevent raw material bridging and blockage. Intelligent Batching Device: Employs a 6-channel variable frequency screw feeder, paired with a PLC control system. When producing NPK compound fertilizer, the proportions of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and additives are precisely controlled according to the formula (batching error ≤ ±0.8%). When producing potassium chloride granular fertilizer, the amount of potassium chloride is increased separately (≥90%), reducing or closing other raw material channels to achieve rapid switching. (II) Raw Material Pretreatment and Mixing Crushing and Screening: Potassium chloride raw material is crushed to ≤2mm using a 400-type vertical crusher (to avoid large clumps affecting granulation). During NPK compound fertilizer production, other inorganic raw materials are simultaneously crushed to ≤3mm. A cyclone dust collector is used in the crushing process, achieving a dust recovery rate of 99%. After crushing, the raw materials are graded using a 1.2×4.0 meter drum screen; unqualified particles are returned for regrinding. Twin-Shaft Mixer: A 60-type twin-shaft mixer is used. During NPK production, multiple components are thoroughly mixed (mixing uniformity error ≤2%). During potassium chloride production, only potassium chloride and a small amount of binder are mixed (addition amount 2%-5%). The mixer is equipped with a spray humidification device, and the moisture content of the raw materials is adjusted according to the product type (NPK: 25%-30%; potassium chloride: 18%-25%). II. Core Granulation Unit: Dual-Product Adaptability Design (I) Granulation Machine Selection and Switching Core Equipment: Two Φ2.0×8.0 meter rotary drum granulators (operating in parallel) are used to accommodate the granulation needs of two products. The inner wall of the drum is lined with wear-resistant ceramic plates (resistant to potassium chloride corrosion), and adjustable lifting plates are used. Process switching is achieved by adjusting the lifting plate angle and the drum speed.
