In North Carolina, USA, RICHI Machinery has commissioned a transformative 15 T/H swine manure organic fertilizer production line serving the world’s largest concentrated animal feeding operation. The facility processes 450,000 tons of liquid manure annually into three distinct pelletized products: slow-release field fertilizer, greenhouse growing media, and organic soil amendments.
The plant implements RICHI’s proprietary nutrient recovery system that separates nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium streams for precision formulation. Advanced ammonia capture technology converts volatile nitrogen into stable ammonium compounds, increasing nutrient retention by 300% compared to conventional composting.
The $45 million project includes a dedicated rail loading facility shipping pellets to organic farms across the Midwest. Environmental impact assessments show complete elimination of nutrient runoff into watersheds while reducing greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to removing 12,000 cars from roads annually. This represents North America’s most advanced integrated manure management solution.
