Application: Cryogenic Grinding of Groundnut to Create Fertilizer
Cryogenic grinding, or cryomilling, employs liquid nitrogen or other cryogens to cool materials to very low temperatures making them brittle. This enhances grinding efficiency and reduces thermal degradation and contamination. By taking advantage of these unique low-temperature properties, cryogenic grinding benefits scientific research, industrial processes, and medical applications, and is particularly effective in producing high-quality organic fertilizers in agriculture.
The production of fertilizers using groundnuts represents an innovative and sustainable approach to enhance soil fertility and plant growth. The finely ground powder from cryomilling can facilitate better nutrient release and absorption when used as a fertilizer. Smaller particles increase the surface area, enhancing the breakdown of organic matter and nutrient availability to plants. The fine powder produced through cryomilling can be more easily blended with other components in the fertilizer mix, leading to a more homogeneous and effective product.
