Process Guide: How to Make Cassava Cat Litter with a Disc Granulator

I. Product Overview
Cassava cat litter is an environmentally friendly pet product made from natural raw materials such as cassava starch. It has advantages such as strong water absorption, fast clumping, and biodegradability. As a fertilizer equipment manufacturer, our disc granulator demonstrates unique advantages in cassava cat litter production.

II. Raw Material Ratio
Standard Formula:
Cassava Starch: 25%
Corn Starch: 45%
Wheat Starch: 20%
Guar Gum: 1%
Baking Soda: 3%
Activated Carbon: 1%
Natural Fragrance: 0.2%
Raw Material Requirements: Moisture ≤12%, Fineness 80-100 mesh, Heavy Metal Content meets national standards.

III. Production Process Flow
Core Process: Raw material pretreatment → Batching and mixing → Conditioning and maturation → Granulation and molding → Drying and cooling → Sieving and grading → Packaging and warehousing
Key Processes:
Pretreatment: Crushing and sieving to 80-100 mesh, premixing for 5-8 minutes
Conditioning: Moisture content 20-25%, temperature 80-90℃, maturation for 10-15 minutes
Granulation: Disc granulator, speed 15-20 r/min, particle diameter 3-6 mm
Drying: Temperature 120-160℃, time 30-45 minutes, final moisture content 8-10%

IV. Advantages of Disc Granulator Application
Technical Parameters:
Disc Diameter: 1.5-2.5 meters
Production Capacity: 1-8 tons/hour
Motor Power: 7.5-15 kW

Main Advantages:
Highly adaptable, suitable for raw materials with high moisture content.
Good particle morphology, uniform spherical shape.
High production efficiency, stable continuous operation.
Simple operation, low maintenance cost.
