Coal is an important traditional source of fossil energy and industrial raw material. It plays a critical role in the global energy system. With the development of clean energy, clean and efficient use of coal, as well as the development of coal-based derivative products (such as coal fertilizers, activated carbon, etc.. e in.) have become hot topics in research and development. If we talk about the production of fertilizers, How can coal be completely used?? Coal-based fertilizer is a good direction. If you are interested in this project, Contact us. Shunxin company has extensive experience and can offer you a solution, tailored to your needs.

Coal based fertilizer granulator

First question: coal organic or inorganic substance.

Coal is primarily formed as a result of long-term biochemical and geological processes (such as decomposition, compaction and charring) ancient plant remains in anoxic conditions. Its main component is carbon, and also includes the following elements, like hydrogen, oxygen, sulfur and nitrogen. These elements exist primarily in the form of organic compounds. The main components of coal are various high-molecular organic substances (hummus, coal, etc.). It is predominantly organic in nature.

Additional Note:

  • Although coal also contains small amounts of minerals (such as inorganic impurities, such as sulfides and silicates), its basic properties and main components determine its organic nature.
  • Inorganic substances, unlike coal, usually referred to as minerals, such as salt and quartz. Their main components are inorganic compounds.

Second question: Because coal is organic, can it be used to produce fertilizers?

The answer is: coal can be used to produce certain types of fertilizers, but not directly as fertilizer.

What does it mean? Let's explain it in detail.

Coal itself cannot be used directly as fertilizer.. The main components of coal are carbon and organic matter.. Direct application to the soil does not have a significant fertilizing effect on plant growth and may even affect soil structure. However, coal can be used as a raw material in the production of fertilizers. Coal can be chemically processed industrially to produce some fertilizers, also known as coal based fertilizer. For example:

Coal can be gasified to produce raw gas for synthetic ammonia (mainly hydrogen and carbon monoxide), which is then used to synthesize ammonia. It is further processed into nitrogen fertilizers, Such as urea, ammonium bicarbonate and ammonium nitrate.

Low grade coals, such as lignite and weathered coal, rich in humic acid. After extraction and processing, humic fertilizers can be obtained from them.. They improve the soil and stimulate plant growth.

By-products, obtained in the process of coal gasification (such as coal tar and coal gas), can be further processed, some of which can be used in agriculture.
