In the field of sustainable agriculture and renewable energy, biogas residue fertilizer production equipment plays a vital role in converting organic waste into valuable fertilizer. This innovative technology not only supports environmentally friendly agriculture, but also promotes circular economy practices. Whether you are an agricultural enterprise, a biogas plant operator or an environmental enthusiast, understanding the advantages and applications of biogas residue fertilizer production equipment can help you maximize resource efficiency.

What Is Biogas Residue Fertilizer
When organic waste undergoes anaerobic digestion in biogas plants, it produces two main byproducts: biogas (used for energy) and digestate. The digestate, often called biogas residue, is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and organic matter—making it an excellent soil conditioner.However, raw biogas residue is too wet and unstable for direct agricultural use. That’s where biogas residue fertilizer production equipment comes in. This machinery processes the residue into stable, nutrient-rich fertilizer that boosts soil health while reducing reliance on synthetic alternatives.

Why It Matters
Reduces waste – Converts biogas plant byproducts into a usable resource.
Improves soil fertility – Enhances water retention, microbial activity, and long-term soil structure.
Lowers carbon footprint – Prevents methane emissions from untreated organic waste.
How Biogas Residue Fertilizer Production Equipment Works
1. Dewatering System
The first stage involves solid-liquid separation to reduce moisture content. High-efficiency screw press dewatering machines are commonly used, and LANE offers models tailored for various residue types such as inclined dewatering machine.
2. Fermentation Unit
After dewatering, the semi-solid digestate undergoes aerobic composting. LANE's crawler type compost turners and groove type compost turners enhance oxygen supply, accelerating microbial activity and reducing pathogens and odor.
3. Crushing Equipment
Once fermented, the material is often lumpy and fibrous. LANE’s semi-wet crushers ensure uniform granule size with minimal energy consumption.

4. Mixing and Nutrient Blending
To enhance nutrient profiles, materials like crop straw, zeolite, or NPK additives can be mixed in. LANE’s paddle or double shaft mixers offer consistent, uniform blending.
5. Granulation Machines
One of the most critical stages. Disc granulators or new type organic fertilizer granulators form the material into pellets. LANE provides high-yield granulation systems that minimize waste and energy use.
6. Drying and Cooling Systems
Moisture removal and pellet hardening are key for transport and shelf life. LANE’s rotary dryers and coolers are energy-efficient and highly customizable.
7. Screening and Packaging
Final product quality is ensured by rotary screening machines that filter out oversized or undersized pellets. Fully automatic packing machines finish the process, offering precision and speed.

Why Choose LANE’s Biogas Residue Fertilizer Production Equipment?
When it comes to equipment for digestate fertilizer production, LANE stands out for its dedication to quality, innovation, and customer success. The true differentiation of our systems lies not only in the equipment itself, but in the entire ecosystem of support and expertise we provide.
Our engineering team has spent over 15 years perfecting every aspect of digestate handling. We have developed proprietary drying technology that reduces energy costs by up to 30% compared to traditional systems, and we use specially formulated corrosion-resistant materials that can withstand the complex chemistry of digestate. These equipment are not off-the-shelf, each system is carefully designed to achieve optimal performance based on your specific feedstock.
What really sets LANE apart is our holistic approach. We don’t just sell you equipment, we provide complete turnkey solutions that integrate seamlessly with your existing operations. From the initial digestate feed to the final packaged fertilizer, each component works together perfectly. Our space-saving design ensures maximum productivity even in space-constrained facilities.
But our partnership doesn’t end with installation. LANE offers unrivalled ongoing support, including dedicated process engineers, quarterly optimization visits, and 24/7 technical support. We guarantee a 24-hour response time and offer a minimum of 5 years of spare parts inventory – something few manufacturers can offer.With over 200 successful installations across 15 countries, our equipment has proven its reliability in every climate from freezing winters to tropical heat. Our systems meet the most stringent international standards, including EU, USDA Organic and China Organic certifications.The results speak for themselves. One recent dairy farm client achieved 95% odor reduction, 40% faster processing times, and complete ROI in just 18 months through fertilizer sales and waste disposal savings. This is the kind of performance only LANE's biogas residue fertilizer production equipment can deliver.
Turning Waste into Wealth
Biogas residue fertilizer production equipment is more than just a trend – it's a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture and environmental responsibility. Whether you're managing a large dairy farm, a food processing facility, or a municipal waste plant, LANE offers scalable, efficient, and cost-effective solutions to turn your waste into green gold.
