Fertilizer Granulation Plants and Blending Systems
Process engineering, equipment and turnkey plant solutions for NPK production and fertilizer blending.
We are here to deliver
Turnkey Fertilizer Granulation Systems from Design to Commissioning
As a full-service engineering partner for fertilizer production, we design, manufacture and commission complete granulation plants around your raw materials, target capacity and product specifications. Each solution can integrate dosing, mixing, granulation, drying, screening, cooling, coating and packing into one coordinated production system.
- Granule-Uniformity
- In-House Fabrication
- Ultra-Low Dust
- As Built Documents after Delivery
Share your current land plan, and we'll design a 3-D drawing to clearly illustrate the most suitable production plant or fertilizer granulation processes, and send you a 48-hour quote complete with capacity and equipment specs, no strings attached.
From planning to production
A Complete Fertilizer Granulation Plant, Built Around Your Needs
With more than 25 years of experience in fertilizer plant design and manufacturing, we build solutions around your raw materials, fertilizer formula, and target output. Whether you’re starting a new facility or expanding production, our project experience ranges from 1-tonne-per-hour microgranular plants to 80-tonnes-per-hour NPK plants, including blending and liquid fertilizer plants.
Each plant brings the production stages together into one coordinated system. Ingredients are measured by weight, mixed if necessary, and formed into granules using wet or dry granulation methods. Drying removes excess moisture, while screening separates granules to your chosen size—typically 2–4 mm for standard NPK fertilizer. Material that is too small or too large returns for reprocessing, in continuous fashion.
The finished granules are then cooled and packed for storage and delivery. We match each stage to the plant’s required output, and with selected packing lines, we establish complete production plants with a focus on reliable operation, straightforward maintenance.
From layout and equipment manufacturing to installation and startup, we help you turn your production plans into a working facility.
8 Steps in Granular Fertilizer Production Plants
Fertilizer Granulation Process Timeline
1. Dosing System
First step of the turnkey fertilizer granulation system, CEYLAN dosing systems precisely measures every solid or powder ingredient using loss-in-weight method, so the formulation keeps its exact recipe. Typical devices are loss-in-weight feeders or belt scales connected to a local PLC that alarms if any stream drifts outside tolerance.

2. Granulation
Nuclei pick up fine particles to combine into larger granules of different sizes as the material rotates inside a granulation drum or pan. Moisture or a binder helps this purpose of creating strong granules before they move to the drying stage.

3. Drying
Hot air passes through a rotary dryer to evaporate free moisture from the fresh granules, raising their crush strength and preparing them for classification. This is an important part of high-performance turnkey fertilizer granulation systems, ensuring consistent product quality within modern fertilizer production plant systems.

4. Screening & Sifting
Vibrating or rotary screens classify the dried product into on-size granules, fines, and oversize. Fines go back to the granulator, and oversize is routed to the crusher.

5. Crushing
In a fertilizer granulation process, a chain or hammer mill reduces the oversized granules from the screener into smaller particles so they can be recycled as seed material in the granulation loop.

6. Cooling
A counter-current rotary cooler lowers the product temperature to near ambient, preventing condensation and caking during storage or bagging.

7. Coating
Cooled granules pass through a coating drum, where a thin layer of oil, polymer or anti-caking agent is applied to help keep the fertilizer free-flowing during storage and handling.

8. Packing
Finished granules are weighed and filled into bags using controlled feeding and accurate dosing. The bags are then stitched or heat-sealed, preparing the fertilizer for storage and shipment.
