BIOFERTILIZER MANUFACTURING PLANTS

We undertake complete projects on a turnkey basis for setting up of biofertilizer manufacturing plants. Biofertilizers, unlike synthetic fertilizers, are of natural (microbial) origin, have a wide range of applicability, & leave no toxic or non-biodegradable residues. They are thus gradually replacing synthetic fertilizers in several applications.

Biofertilizers are manufactured by fermentation of a complex heterogeneous medium using commercially viable microbial cultures. The production plant consists of two sections, the manufacturing section & the culture laboratory. The manufacturing section consists of fermentors, blenders, conveyors, storage tanks, piping & instrumentation, & bag/pouch filling equipments. The culture laboratory is equipped with standard testing & culture propagation equipments, the main ones being autoclaves, laminar flow work benches, microscopes, rotary shakers, etc. In addition, utilities equipments such as boilers, cooling towers, air compressors, water softeners & purifiers, pumps & vacuum pumps are also deployed.

The scope of work undertaken includes the following activities :

• Preparation of project profile and/or techno-economic feasibility report (project report);
• Plant design including location & layout planning;
• Guidance in site selection;
• Provision of complete manufacturing know-how for the product;
• Basic & detail engineering
• Supervision of construction work at site;
• Design, manufacture, supply, installation & commissioning of the plant & equipments.
