Under the aegis of government policy of production, market, training and related systems. The animal breeding farms have a prosperous development in the Philippines. But with the hot selling of animal meat, there is an item that needs to focus on. How to dispose of animal waste in farms? On 8th November 2022, a customer from the Philippines contacted us for an environmentally friendly way to treat cow dung in the farm. And there are about 1,000 cows in his farm. And finally, he chose a small scale commercial fertilizer composting system. The following are the specific details of our communication in this case:
Main Parameters
- Country: Philippines
Capacity: 10 T/Day - Material: 70% Moisture cow manure
- Final fertilizer: compost powder
- Application: 1,000 cow farm manure waste disposal
- Solution: In -vessel compostor
What kind of fertilizer do you want to make from cow dung? Powder compost or organic fertilizer granule?
For cow farm manure waste management, YUSHUNXIN can provide you with 2 types of fertilizer production plans. You can choose to turn cow litter into compost powder or granular organic fertilizer. The former can help you dispose of cow manure into organic fertilizer with a simpler process and economical cost. The latter can help you make cow dung fertilizer with slow nutrient release, easier to transport and storage.
Because considering budget for cow manure fertilizer production, the Philippines customer choose to buy a cow manure composting system.
What equipment can be used in small scale commercial fertilizer composting of 1,000 cows manure?
After a period of consideration, the client from the Philippines chose to process cow dung into compost first. And because this Philippine customer has told us that there are about 1,000 cows in his farm. In general, a cow will generate 30 kg of manure waste per day. After dewatering, the capacity is about 10 t/day. So, the small scale compost machine is the best choice for him. Then what equipment is suitable for starting commercial fertilizer composting on a small scale? There are 2 types of YUSHUNXIN compost machines for your reference.
Groove type compost turner for economical cow manure composting
The groove type compost turner is the most economical choice for starting a cow manure fermentation. This machine can work for fermentation grooves with a width of 2-5 m and a depth of 1-2 m. Namely, it can process 500m³-2500m³ of cow manure into compost fertilizer within 20 days. During fermentation, it will move along the rails on both sides of the fermentation trench and the stirring teeth will rotate to turn the materials in grooves. This will create a suitable environment for cattle litter fermentation. So the manure can be fermented into compost quickly and easily. It is popular with small scale compost fertilizer plants.
Organic fertilizer fermentation tank for fast cattle waste fermentation
However, if you want to compost cow manure fast, we recommend you buy a in-vessel compostor. It is a kind of in-vessel compost equipment, which starts organic fertilizer fermentation in a closed environment. Therefore, the machine can retain heat and isolate outworld cold influence and speed up aerobic fermentation of cow poop. In addition, the organic fermentation tank is also the best choice for small space commercial fertilizer compost making. Only occupies an area of 10-30 ㎡, which is far less than that of other cow dung compost machines. At the same time, it can decompose cattle litter without odor. Because it has a gas waste treatment system, which can reduce the pollution generated in composting.
Because of budget limited, the Philippines clients choose a groove type compost turner.
How to make composted cow manure into powder?
Generally, you need to do the following 3 steps:
Drying composted cow manure
Once the composting process is complete, the composted cow manure needs to be thoroughly dried. Spread the compost in a thin layer under the sun or use a drying machine to accelerate the process. Ensuring the compost is completely dry is crucial for effective grinding.
Grinding cow dung compost into fine powder
Feed the dried composted manure into a fine powder fertilizer grinder or mill. Equipment like vertical crusher mills or semi-wet material pulverizers can efficiently break down the compost into a uniform powder. But, you need to ensure the grinder is clean and set to the appropriate setting for the desired fineness.
Sieving crushed cattle manure fertilizer
To achieve a uniform particle size, sift the ground manure through a fine mesh sieve. This step removes any remaining large particles, ensuring a consistent, fine powder.
The above are details about our communication with the customer from the Philippines. In addition, besides small scale commercial fertilizer composting system, we also can provide you with many other systems fertilizer making for fertilizer making. Such as large scale composting system, fertilizer granulation line, powdery fertilizer making line, etc. If you are interested in them, please contact us immediately.
