Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process of granulation of urea and granules of urea obtainable with said process.
- the current agricultural system is facing the challenge of feeding the increasing world population and mitigating environmental impact.
- the current world population is over 8 billion and is expected to reach about 10 billion in 2050.
- the land available for food production is limited and plants have a critical nutrient uptake limit. For the above reasons, there is a strong incentive to increase yield per unit and optimize resources.
- Fertilization has a basic role in crop production and notably affects its environmental impact, particularly soil nitrogen (N) dynamics. Furthermore, agriculture represents a significant source of human-made emissions of N2O due to fertilization.
- N soil nitrogen
- Urea is the most common source of nitrogen for fertilization.
- Granules of solid urea for use as fertilizer are typically produced by means of a granulation process.
- the granulation process is described in the literature of urea production, for example Ullmann’s encyclopaedia of industrial chemistry.
- the known urea processes such as CO2 stripping or self-stripping, produce an aqueous urea solution having a concentration of around 65-70%.
- This solution is treated to remove water in a suitable evaporation section, to obtain a urea melt with a concentration suitable for the urea granulation, which is typically 96% of higher (by weight).
- the granulation process is performed in a granulation apparatus, where the urea melt is sprayed and solidifies over the granules until a target size of the granules is reached.
- the process is also fed with small particles of solid urea called seeds, which act as starting nuclei for the granulation process.
- Said seeds may be separately prepared or obtained by crushing a portion of the granules, for example a portion which does not meet size specification.
- the granulation process is preferably performed in a fluid-bed condition.
- the granulation process may include the use of additives, the most common being formaldehyde which is an anti-caking agent and increases the mechanical properties, such as crushing strength, of the granules.
- urea During its use as fertilizer, urea easily undergoes transformation processes such as hydrolysis (i.e. urease) and nitrification. If these processes are necessary to sustain plant nutrition, they may also harm the environment by release of ammonia (NH3) into the atmosphere and contamination of groundwater through NO3 leaching after nitrification. Therefore, the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is among the most critical research issues. Alongside the input of nitrogen, the overall crop nutrition should be improved.
- Nutrient uptake by crops usually follows a sigmoidal graphical pattern, which is synchronized with crop phenology such as germination, shoot formation, flowering, grain filling, and fruit formation.
- An ideal nutrient release should fully match that sigmoidal pattern to minimize losses.
- N-(n-Butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) is used as urease inhibitor.
- DCD Dicyandiamide
- the above chemicals are normally dissolved in a solvent and the so obtained solution is sprayed onto finished urea granules or prills downstream the granulation or prilling section.
- US 8 343 891 discloses a method of improving the properties of urea granules, by the addition of an additive to the urea.
- the invention aims to a new urea-based fertilizer and a related process of production to overcome the above-mentioned issues in connection with the use of NBPT and/or DCD as additives.
- a further aim of the invention is to provide an environmentally acceptable alternative to the above-mentioned additives used in the production of urea granules.
- the above aims are reached with a urea granulation process according to the claims.
- gallic acid is used as urease inhibitor and/or methylthioninium chloride, known as methylene blue, is used as nitrification inhibitor.
- the invention provides that one or both of said additives is added directly in the granulation process. Consequently, the so obtained urea granules are not simply coated with the additive, rather the additive is contained in the urea granules according to a desired distribution.
- At least one of said additives is added to selected steps of the granulation process. Consequently, the additive can be concentrated in a selected region of the granules, for example in a layer of the granules. In some embodiments the process results in the additive being predominantly or exclusively contained in a layer of the granules. In certain embodiments, the process results in granules with a layered structure including a layer containing most or all of the methylene blue and a layer containing the most or all of the gallic acid.
- the gallic acid is preferably added after the methylene blue, within the granulation process, so that the gallic acid is contained in an outer layer and the methylene blue is contained in an inner layer of the granules.
- a further aspect of the invention is a urea granulate comprising at least one of methylthioninium chloride and gallic acid according to the claims.
- the gallic acid is added to the granulation process preferably in an amount so that the total content of gallic acid in the urea granules, obtained after the granulation process, is in the range 0.2 g/kg to 10 g/kg, preferably 0.5 to 5.0 g/kg and more preferably 1.0 to 3.0 g/kg.
- the methylthioninium chloride (methylene blue) is added to the granulation process preferably in an amount so that its total content in the urea granules, obtained after the granulation process, is in the range 0.12 g/kg to 10 g/kg, preferably 0.5 to 5.0 g/kg and more preferably 0.8 to 1 .5 g/kg.
- the granulation process can be performed in a granulation apparatus, wherein a feed of urea melt is sprayed in the granulation apparatus and the apparatus is fed with solid particles of urea, called seeds, suitable to act as starting nuclei for the granulation process.
- some or all of said granulation seeds are obtained by crushing a portion of the granules obtained after the granulation process; in addition or alternatively, some or all of said granulation seeds can be separately prepared with a portion of said urea melt.
- the crushed portion of granules may include undersize and oversize granules, separated by passing the product of the granulation apparatus (urea granules) through suitable screeners.
- the separate production of granulation seeds is made preferably by rotoforming, wherein droplets of urea melt are deposited on a cooled belt.
- granulation seeds may be produced by a separate prilling or granulation process. For example, a small portion of the available urea melt can be sent to a prilling equipment or to a separate granulator for the production of the seeds.
- all granulation seeds are produced separately with a portion of the urea melt and no recycle of the product by crushing granules and reintroducing them in the granulator, is performed.
- This once-through embodiment may be preferable to provide accurate control of the amount of additive in different layers of the granules.
- the granulation process is preferably a fluid-bed process, wherein the urea granules are maintained in a fluidized condition by means of a suitable fluidizing medium, which is typically air.
- a suitable fluidizing medium typically air.
- the granules are maintained in a vortex or double-vortex condition.
- the granulation process may include a sequence of granulation stages from a first granulation stage to a last granulation stage, wherein at each granulation stage a feed of urea melt is introduced into the granulation apparatus by means of one or more sprayers. For example, at each granulation stage an amount of the urea feed is introduced by a set of sprayers arranged around the granulation apparatus. The sprayers of different granulation stages may be fed by a urea melt header.
- one or more initial granulation stages are performed without the addition of any of said gallic acid and methylthioninium chloride, and at least one of said gallic acid and methylthioninium chloride is added to one or more subsequent granulation stages. Accordingly, granules can be obtained wherein the core of the granules contains no or substantially no amount of the above-mentioned additives, which are predominantly or exclusively concentrated in a selected layer.
- methylene blue is added to a first set of granulation stages and gallic acid is added to a subsequent second set of granulation stages, so that granules are obtained with a core substantially free of said additives; an inner layer containing the methylene blue; an outer layer containing the gallic acid.
- a layered structure of the urea granules is advantageous because a desired release of nutrients is achieved and meanwhile urease and the nitrification reaction are prevented.
- the methylthioninium chloride is added to a first sequence of one or more granulation stages
- the gallic acid is added to a second sequence of one or more granulation stages, wherein the stages of the second sequence are performed after and downstream the stages of the first sequence, wherein methylthioninium chloride is not added to the steps of the second sequence, and gallic acid is not added to the steps of the first sequence.
- the methylthioninium chloride and/or gallic acid can be introduced directly in the granulation apparatus or added to a urea melt stream before said stream is introduced in the granulation apparatus. Adding said additives to one or more urea melt stream(s) is a preferred embodiment.
- each of the above-mentioned additives may be added to a urea melt header which feeds different stages of granulation, or to an individual set of sprayers which introduce the urea melt into a single stage of granulation.
- Said residence time is preferably not greater than 30 s, preferably not greater than 15 s and most preferably not greater than 10 s.
- the methylthioninium chloride and/or gallic acid is introduced in the granulation process so that the methylthioninium chloride or gallic acid is added to a layer of the urea granules, said layer having a volume which is 0.2 to 0.4 the total volume of the urea granule, preferably 0.3 or around 0.3.
- the total volume of the urea granules is understood as the volume of the granule including the above-mentioned layer containing the methylthioninium chloride or gallic acid, and any coating layer.
- the process is controlled so that the urea granules exiting the granulate apparatus have a spherical shape.
- the urea granules have an average diameter which is in the range of 2.8 mm to 3.5 mm, preferably 2.9 mm to 3.1 mm. or more preferably of 3.0 mm or about 3.0 mm. Said average diameter refers to the granules including any additive-containing layer and coating layer.
- the urea melt has a content of urea of at least 96% by weight and the nitrogen content in the urea granules is at least 46% by weight.
- Each of the additives gallic acid and methylene blue, prior to being injected into the granulator apparatus or into a urea melt stream, is preferably mixed with an aqueous solution of urea to form an aqueous dispersion.
- concentration of the additive in the aqueous urea dispersion is selected in order to minimize the water input to the urea melt and avoid the precipitation of urea from the dispersion especially when the dispersion is stored at a relatively low temperature.
- the above-mentioned aqueous urea solution which is mixed with the gallic acid or with the methylene blue to form the dispersion, has a urea concentration in the range of 40% to 80% by weight.
- the gallic acid and said methylthioninium chloride are introduced in the granulation process in the form of a dispersion in an aqueous urea solution.
- methylthioninium chloride is dispersed in said aqueous solution in a concentration of 15% to 30%.
- said gallic acid is dispersed in said aqueous solution of urea in a concentration of 20% to 35%.
- a further aspect of the invention is a urea granulate comprising methylthioninium chloride and/or gallic acid added as additive in the granulate.
- the methylthioninium chloride is in an amount of 0.12 to 10 grams of methylthioninium chloride per kg of urea granule, more preferably 0.5 to 5.0 g/kg and particularly preferably 0.8 to 1 .5 g/kg.
- the gallic acid is in an amount of 0.2 to 10 grams of gallic acid per kg of urea granule, more preferably 0.5 to 5.0 g/kg and particularly preferably 1 .0 to 3.0 g/kg.
- the urea granulate consists of a multi-layered structure comprising a nucleus of urea, a first layer of methylthioninium chloride mixed with urea and a second layer of gallic acid mixed with urea.
- the first layer of the granule surrounds the nucleus and the second layer surrounds the first layer.
- said nucleus of the granulate is free of additive; accordingly, methylthioninium chloride and gallic acid are only added in the layers surrounding the nucleus.
- the urea granulate is spherical and the average diameter of the granulate is between 2.8 and 3.5 mm, preferably 2.9 mm to 3.1 mm and more preferably is 3.0 mm or about 3.0 mm.
- at least 90% by mass of the granular urea has a diameter in the range 2.0 to 4.0 mm.
- Fig. 1 is a diagram of a urea granulation process according to an embodiment of the invention, wherein the granulation process is a once-through process.
- Fig. 2 is a diagram of a urea granulation process according to an embodiment of the invention wherein part of the urea granules is recycled into the granulation apparatus.
- Figs. 1 and 2 disclose the following main items:
- Fig. 1 shows a process for generating urea granules 100 containing methylthioninium chloride and gallic acid as additives. The process works as follow.
- An aqueous solution of urea 50 is fed via line 1 to a first evaporator 2 to generate a more concentrated urea solution or urea melt; a first portion of the concentrated urea solution is sent via line 63 to the granulator 9; a second and minor portion of the concentrated urea solution is sent via line 4 to a second evaporator 5 for further concentration, to produce a highly concentrated urea melt 6 which feeds a seeds producer such as the rotoformer 7.
- the water 53, 54 removed by the evaporators 2 and 5 is processed in the waste water treatment section 3.
- the first portion of urea solution 63 is added with formaldehyde or with a formaldehyde-containing additive 17 to generate a formaldehyde-containing urea melt 44 supplied to the urea granulator 9.
- the highly concentrated urea melt 6 is used in the rotoformer 7 to generate granulation seeds 8 of solid urea.
- the seeds 8 are then fed to the granulator 9 to be used as precursors for the growth of the granules 100.
- said urea melt 6 is added with a recycle stream 16 obtained from the processing of the granulation offgas 11 .
- the granulator 9 receives a urea solution 23 containing methylene blue and a urea solution 31 containing gallic acid.
- Said solutions 23, 31 are preferably a dispersion of the additive in a urea solution of a suitable concentration, as explained below.

Having a separate urea melt header 102, the third granulation stage does not receive the methylene blue dispersion 23.
- Fig. 1 shows that a main header carrying the urea melt 44 is separated into a first header 101 carrying a first portion of the urea melt and a second header 102 carrying a second portion of the urea melt.
- the first header 101 feeds the nozzles of the first stage 150a and of the second stage 150b, and the second header 102 feeds separately the nozzles of the third stage 150c.
- the first granulation stage 150a receives the urea melt 44 as in the main header, added with the formaldehyde additive 17.

- a byproduct offgas 11 is removed from the granulator 9.
- the offgas 11 may contain fluidizing air, urea dust and small amounts of the additives used in the granulation process.
- the offgas 11 is purified in the scrubber 12 using a scrubbing medium such as water 13.
- Outputs of the scrubber 12 are an aqueous solution of urea 45 and a purified gas 32 which is vented into the atmosphere.
- the aqueous solution 45 is concentrated in the evaporator 14 coupled to a vacuum unit 15 to generate the recovery urea stream 16 which is mixed with the highly concentrated urea melt 6 to produce the input for the rotoformer 7.
- the granules 68 obtained in the granulator 9 are subjected to a screening step in the screeners 41 to separate undersized or oversized granules 70 which are crushed in the crusher 40 to form seeds 71.
- the granules which meet size specifications and are not discarded by the screeners 41 form the granular product 100.
- the granules 100 have a uniform or nearly uniform distribution of additives within the granules, as a consequence of the additives being added with the same dispersion 105.
