| Abstract | This report highlights the use of computer-aided design in developing rotary dryers for fertilizer manufacturing. The delicate nature of urea-based fertilizers poses challenges for conventional drying methods, requiring lower temperatures and longer drying periods. Math H.G. Jennekens, a fertilizer technologist at IFDC, has developed a computer program that provides fertilizer manufacturers with essential information regarding the requirements and cost-effectiveness of producing urea-based NPK fertilizers. The program calculates heat and material balances, determines necessary modifications, and calculates equipment size. The program has been successfully tested and is available for use by interested parties. | |
