Abstract [eng] |
Overall, the use of granular materials has a lot of advantages compared to powdered materials. This is also characteristic of fertilizers, because granular fertilizers don’t dust, don’t segregation, are better distributed in the soil, and one granule contains all the nutrients needed by plants. The granulation process is most often used in the production of fertilizers – wetting the fertilizer components with liquid (binder). The success of the process often depends on the binder selected, which wets and binds the small powder particles together. Liquid bridges appear between the wetted particles. As the number of liquid bridges increases larger particles – agglomerates [1-2]. There is presented the influence of different concentrations of polyvinyl acetate (PVA) on the granulation process and product properties of buckwheat hulls ash (Table 1). |
