Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for producing a fertilizer which is used in all fields of agriculture and forestry including paddy rice, horticultural crops, fruit trees, flowers, trees, afforestation and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A fertilizer official standard defines that a large amount of Otaniishi powder, bentonite, woody peat, etc., alone be added to a fertilizer as a fertilizer enhancer to form a compound fertilizer.
The purpose of these molded compound fertilizers is to slowly elute the fertilizer components contained therein and to maintain the fertilizing effect.
However, most of the conventional compound fertilizers have a drawback that the solid state collapses and disperses in water or soil in a relatively short time, so that the content components are also proportionally dissolved and eluted early. . In addition, since the materials such as Otaniishi powder and bentonite used are specified for each individual, they are not affected by the place of production, price, transportation conditions, etc. Limited and not universal technology.

[0003]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a solid fertilizer formed mainly from a chemical fertilizer, which is maintained in a solid state in water or soil for a long period of time to control the elution of components.
Aiming to develop a new technology that produces a mild fertilizer effect, and established a method for producing solid fertilizer that is not limited to conventional fertilizer promoters and does not diminish fertilizer effects such as reduction of phosphoric acid. It is to be.

Means for Solving the Problems As a result of many years of research in order to solve the above problems, the present inventor has found that an appropriate amount of fibrous papers is crushed or made into a mud and added to a fertilizer. It was found that the above-mentioned problems can be solved by kneading and molding while adding water, and completed the present invention.

That is, according to the present invention, an appropriate amount of fibrous papers is crushed or sludged and added to a solid fertilizer raw material containing a water-insoluble and caking substance, and water is added to knead and mold the mixture. After that, it is a method for producing a solid fertilizer characterized by being dried.

The water-insoluble and caking substance referred to in the present invention is
For example, it refers to an overgrowth containing a gypsum, a heavy gypsum, an inorganic substance such as gypsum and bentonite, an organic substance including starch such as konjac flying powder and wheat flour, and a mixture thereof. General clay and cement, etc. also have a strong binding action, but this one contains iron and alumina, and because it is a strong alkali, it induces ammonia volatilization and phosphoric acid reduction, so it is not suitable for use. It is something. In addition, glue, waste molasses, etc. are caking, but are water-soluble, and in addition to phosphorus, general organic fertilizers, etc., Otani stone powder, wood peat, etc. are water-insoluble, but are not caking. None of them, for example, do not satisfy the requirements of the present invention. It can be used by mixing these. The higher the content ratio of the water-insoluble and caking substance in the fertilizer, the more stable the solid is formed, but the weight ratio is preferably 30% or more.

The fibrous papers of the present invention mean general papers containing long pulp pulp fibers that do not contain synthetic resin or clay. Experimentally, toilet paper or tissue paper can be easily used, but in practice, used paper such as cardboard, newspaper, magazines, etc. will be used, and sludge with the same effect will be used. You can also do it. Since fibrous papers are almost neutral, do not contain harmful substances, and have no chemical action, there is no fear of diminishing the fertilizer effect, but rather an organic substance replenishing effect to soil can be expected.

[0008] Further, since the fibrous papers show tackiness when kneading with the solid fertilizer raw material, they assist the caking substance of the raw material and can save the caking substance.
The usage ratio of fibrous papers is 0.5 by weight as dry matter.
Appropriately ˜3%, if it is less than 0.5%, the intended effect of the present invention is weak, while if it exceeds 3%, the treatment operation becomes complicated and the effect is not enhanced. Next, the working mechanism of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to experimental examples.

[0009]

[Experimental Example 1] Experimental method After mixing the raw materials of the sample, adding water and kneading,
A sample is formed into a spherical shape of 5 mm and dried at 120 ° C. for 1.5 hours. Each sample is placed in an Erlenmeyer flask containing 200 ml of water, and the change in shape after being placed in water is observed and compared. Experimental result

[0010]

[Table 1]

Regarding sample 1 in Table 1, a network structure in which ammonium sulfate crystals and fibers of paper are entangled with each other is formed. However, when the water is added, the ammonium sulfate crystals are dissolved and the network structure due to the interlocking of the fibers disappears. As a result, the fibers are released and dispersed in water, and as a result, the solid disappears and ammonium sulfate dissolves in a short time. Sample 2 in Table 1 shows that the solids disappear promptly as the Otaniishi powder is dispersed in water as ammonium sulfate is dissolved. For sample 3 in Table 1, gypsum was added to sample 2 as an inorganic caking substance, and for sample 4, konjac flying powder was added to sample 2 as an organic caking substance. , Sample 5 contains water-insoluble material itself, and is added with caking gemstone, and sample 6 uses phosphorus ammonium and gypsum instead of gemstone of sample 5. is there. Regarding the situation after these samples were put into water, the solids of Samples 3 and 6 collapsed in about 5 hours, and the disintegration times of Samples 4 and 5 were slightly longer, but the solids collapsed within 24 hours. The components are shown to dissolve and disperse. That is, the solid tissue structure proves that the binding force disappears due to the dissolution of the components and the shape cannot be maintained.

On the other hand, the fertilizers of the present invention of Sample 7, Sample 8, Sample 9, Sample 10, Sample 11 and Sample 12 in Table 1 are as follows:
It was confirmed that the solids were stable and maintained the original shape for one month or more after being charged in water. This means that non-water-soluble particles such as Otani stone powder, charcoal powder, gypsum, etc., are strongly entangled uniformly with the kneading of paper fibers due to the caking action of the caking substance such as bentonite, konjac flying powder, gypsum. It is understood that the result is a network structure in which the insoluble particles are subtly linked to each other, and a stronger bond is formed by drying. Therefore, the fertilizer of the present invention has a characteristic action of enclosing the fertilizer component in the solid state, thereby appropriately suppressing the elution of the component, and exhibiting a gentle fertilizing effect, effectively utilizing the component, and having an effect of preventing runoff. Be expected. The solid state gradually disappears in the soil due to the fiber-decomposing action of soil bacteria. The dissolution rate test carried out to quantitatively clarify the action and effect of the fertilizer of the present invention will be described.
