GRANULATING AID is available in a free flowing liquid formulation pumpable at ambient temperature and it should be dosed directly into the PN at a dosage of 0.1 to 0.15% by weight of final rate of production. It helps to increase the bonding of the Ammonium phosphate with Urea granules but also helps in increasing the crushing strength of the final product. It also arrests the fines production and practically eliminates dusting in total.
Please note that though Granulating Aid gives improvement in crushing strength and reduction of fines in the fertilizer it also depends on other factors such as initial crushing strength of Urea, process conditions especially the ratio of AN slurry and Urea input to the granulator & recycle ratio
Granulating Aid does not in any way interfere with the chemical properties and the end use of fertilizer. Granulating Aid is non-toxic and easily bio-degradable. |
