  • Powdered 24.5 Kg of wheat flour, 0.3 Kg of iron powder, 1.2 Kg of Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and 4.0 Kg of bait additives were mixed until homogenous mixture obtained. Then 32% of processing liquid (water) was added to the previously prepared powders mixture and the obtained hydrated blend was homogenized for additional 10 minutes by mixing. Said homogenized hydrated blend was used as feedstock on the extrusion unit, wherein feed-rate is 80-100 kg/h.
  • the hydrated blend obtained in the previous step was inserted into the screw cylinder and further pressed through a die under pressure of 120 bar to obtain the extruded product. After that the extruded product was cut by blades set in contact with the die to obtain wet granules. Then, wet granules were transferred to trays and put in the oven. Oven was heated up to 70°C and the humidity set of 15 %. After 1.25 hours the granular product was removed from the oven, let cool down and packed.
  • Example 5 Preparation of granular bait composition B:
  • Powdered 24.7 Kg of wheat flour 1.65 Kg of bait additives, 1.5 Kg of Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salts, and 1.12 Kg of Iron(III) phosphate dihydrate were mixed until homogenous mixture obtained. Then 32% of processing liquid (water) was added to the previously prepared powders mixture and the obtained hydrated blend was homogenized for additional 10 minutes by mixing. Said homogenized hydrated blend was used as feedstock on the extrusion unit, wherein feed-rate is 80-100 kg/h. The hydrated blend obtained in the previous step was inserted into the screw cylinder and further pressed through a die under pressure of 110 bar to obtain the extruded product.
  • Powdered 24.756 Kg of wheat flour 1.65 Kg of bait additives, 1.5 Kg of Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salts, and 1.125 Kg of Iron(III) phosphate dihydrate were mixed until homogenous mixture obtained. Then 32% of processing liquid (water) was added to the previously prepared powders mixture and the obtained hydrated blend was homogenized for additional 10 minutes by mixing. Said homogenized hydrated blend was used as feedstock on the extrusion unit, wherein feed-rate is 1000-1500 kg/h. The hydrated blend obtained in the previous step was inserted into the screw cylinder and further pressed through a die under pressure of 120 bar to obtain the extruded product.
  • wet granules were transferred to the first one layer inlet oven heated up to 65°C, wherein the granules retention time was 20 min, and the humidity set of 10%. Afterwards, partially dried granules were moved with cup conveyer to a six layers oven, heated up to 60°C with humidity set of 10% for 3 hours to afford final granules, which were collected with a cups conveyer and moved to packaging line.
  • Weight resistance was analyzed using a manual hardness tester (Hardness Tester for fertilizer kernels produced by AAMS-Salvarani BVBA Sint-Barbarastraat 34 9990 Maldegem BELGIUM). Said hardness tester composed by a piston marked from 0 to 10 kg, and granule weight resistance was monitored reading the amount of weight in kilograms needed to break the granule. Single granule was placed on the cylindrical side of the tester and the measurement ring was moved to zero mark of the device and then the device was placed straight on the granule. Pressure was slowly applied on the granule until the granule breaks. The amount of weight needed to break the granule was recorded and the measurement repeated 10 times and averaged for resuming final weight resistance parameter for each tested composition.
