How to turn food waste into organic fertilizer?

2023/01/05

 If you want to quickly convert food waste into valuable organic fertilizers for profit, we will recommend the following process for producing organic fertilizers from food waste. The whole process mainly includes the steps of mixing and crushing, composting, granulation, drying and cooling, screening and packaging.

1. Food waste compost
Composting can convert food waste into a hygienic, humus-rich, relatively stable product, and hydraulic compost turners can speed up fermentation and prevent the production of toxic, unpleasant gases. The food waste fermentation process plays a preliminary but indispensable role in the entire organic fertilizer production process.
2. Food waste crushing
There are many kinds of kitchen waste, such as fruits, vegetables, leftovers, etc. After the composting is completed, it needs to be crushed into small particles.
3. Granulation process
After the fermentation process is completed, the compost can be sent to the organic fertilizer for further production of organic fertilizer. The granulation process is a crucial link in the whole process, so it is very important to choose a suitable fertilizer granulator. Common organic fertilizer granulator machine include: roller extrusion granulator, drum granulator, disc granulator machine, new organic fertilizer granulator, new two-in-one organic fertilizer granulator, flat die granulator machine, ring die granulator, each granulator has its own production characteristics, and the fertilizer granulator machine price varies.
4. Drying and cooling
Drum type fertilizer dryer is used for drying organic fertilizer granules, and the moisture content can be reduced to 10% after drying. Regarding the cooling of organic fertilizer granules, the fertilizer drum cooler will help to remove the heat of the granules. 
5. Organic fertilizer screening and packaging
The drum screen separates the finished product from the return material. It can also be used to sort finished products. The automatic packaging machine is used for automatic quantitative packaging of organic fertilizer granules. Save labor and complete packaging efficiently.
