Fertilizer blending plant is set up to produce compound fertilizer by mixing multiple types of chemical granules evenly in proportion. This type of system is often referred to as bulk blending fertilizer production, abbreviated as BB fertilizer. Usually, because of simple process of batching, mixing and packing only, you can produce NPK fertilizer with economical price, small area, and freely fomation adjustment. At the same time, the blended fertilizer making output can reach 60 TPH or more. For this, YUSHUNXIN, as a professional fertilizer machine factory, can provide support in many aspects. Including material selection, factory location, customized solution design, etc.

How to prepare materials for fertilizer blending plant setup?

When you want to start bulk blending fertilizer making, materials preparation is an item you must focus on. Then what is the principle of BB fertilizer production materials selection? Generally, you need to pay attention to the following 3 aspects:

Chemical materials

In fact, the bulk blending fertilizer system is designed for compound fertilizer making. So the raw materials of it are commonly various single chemical fertilizers or complex fertilizers. Such as urea, gypsum, DAP, TSP, ammonium sulphate, etc.

Uniform granules size

In general, fertilizer blending plant is built to process granular chemical materials into required fertilizer. It is the premise of using chemical fertilizer pellets for starting BB fertilizer making. In addition, in order to prepare high quality bulk blending fertilizer, it is advisable to choose granules with uniform size. Otherwise, the even fertilizer nutrient is easy to layer during transport. Then it will affect the nutrient supply for the growth of crops.

No chemical reaction

Finally, you’d better select materials which have no chemical reaction. Because chemical reaction is a process that leads to the chemical transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. This will change the nutrient proportion of fertilizer and even generate harmful substances.

What equipment is needed in bulk blending fertilizer manufacturing?

Fertilizer blending system is favored by quickly compound fertilizer production. This is because of its simple process of batching, mixing and packing. Therefore, for blended fertilizer making, you generally only need to buy 4 types of fertilizer processing machines.

Batching machine

As mentioned above, BB fertilizer is a mixture of a variety of chemical materials with a certain proportion. If the proportion is changed, the final fertilizer will no longer be suitable for local farming conditions and even cause damage to it. But how to ensure that you can make BB fertilizer strictly according to the formula proportion? Using batching machine, which adopts an electrical weighting system and feeds different chemical materials in order instead of all at once. Therefore, it can feed required materials with high precision.

BB fertilizer mixer

Bulk blending fertilizer making, as the name suggests, mixing machine plays an important role in this process. For this, we especially design professional BB fertilizer mixer. It overcomes the mixtures chromatography and distributaries phenomena caused by different proportions of raw materials and particle size. Moreover, it also solves the influence of material properties, mechanical vibration, air pressure, etc. So it can help you blend various chemical materials evenly to ensure the nutrient balance of your BB fertilizer.

Automatic packaging machine

After mixing, you can package the compound fertilizer directly. What a simple process! Then to finish blending fertilizer faster, we recommend you buy an automatic bagging machine. It has an electrically automatic weighting system, which has a quantitative precision of 2‰. Therefore, it can help you pack final BB fertilizer into 10 kg, 25 kg, 50 kg, etc in a short time. In this way, you can transport, store and sell them more conveniently.

belt conveyors work in fertilizer blending plant

Fertilizer Conveyor

If you want to keep bulk blending fertilizer manufacturing smoothly, it also needs to buy conveyor. It is used to transport chemical materials from one equipment to another. For this, we can provide you belt conveyor, mobile belt conveyor, bucket elevator,etc.

Top 2 designs for fertilizer blending plant setup

In order to different requirements of fertilizer suppliers, we especially design fertilizer blending business plans with different capacities. One is designed for small scale compound fertilizer making plants, which can  produce 5-10 tons of BB fertilizer per hour. Another one is rotary drum mixing fertilizer line, which is suitable for preparing bulk blending fertilizer in a large scale – 20-40 TPH.

Small fertilizer blending plan design

When you need a BB fertilizer making line with a capacity of 5-10 t/h, we recommend you choose our small scale fertilizer blending system. It consists of static batching machine, large angle belt lifter, BB fertilizer mixer, single bucket quantitative packing scale. It adopts the operation method of feeding in positive rotation and discharging in reverse rotation. Easy operation. In addition, because of the special internal spiral mechanism and unique three-dimensional structure, it can mix materials evenly and export fertilizer without blocking.

Large scale drum type fertilizer making line

Provided you want to set up a large scale fertilizer blending plant, you can choose our drum type fertilizer mixing line. It replaces the BB fertilizer mixer with drum type BB fertilizer blender, which has a larger output of 20-40 t/h. That is, it can help you produce 120,000-250,000 tons of bulk blending fertilizer a year. Correspondingly, it is advisable to upgrade single bucket packing machine to double buckets automatic bagging scale. In this way, you can finish large scale mixing fertilizer manufacturing quickly.

How much does a BB fertilizer system cost?

Because of simple process, the investment of blended fertilizer production system is far lower than other complex fertilizer solutions. In general, the price of a BB fertilizer making line ranges from $30,000 to $200,000 for capacities of 5–40 TPH. And, the smaller the output, the lower the investment. There are some examples for your reference.

Costs of 5-40 TPH BB fertilizer making systems

  • For systems with a capacity of 5-10 TPH (tons per hour), the cost generally falls between $30,000 and $50,000.

  • For projet producing 10-20 TPH of BB fertilizer, the price range is typically between $50,000 and $100,000.

  • Pellets mixing solutiona with a capacity of 20-40 TPH usually gas prices ranging from $100,000 to $200,000.

In addition, the quotation of a fertilizer mixing system also changes when you add special designs. If you require more material hoppers, dual fertilizer bagging machines, dust-free feeding, or larger storage silos, the final investment will increase accordingly. Custom conveyor layouts or automatic control systems can also affect the total budget. In summary, choosing the right BB fertilizer blending line depends on both your output requirements and your desired automation level.

Can fertilizer blending line produce NPK fertilizer of 20-30-10?

Of course. In fact, with the fertilizer granules mixing line, you can adjust the NPK fertilizer manufacturing to required proportion freely and quickly.

20-30-10 blended NPK fertilizer making plant setup
