Urea is a high-concentration nitrogen fertilizer that is widely used in agricultural planting, detergents, cosmetics, automobile exhaust treatment, snow-melting agents, and other fields. So where does urea come from? How to process urea into urea granules? And how to use it, etc., I will explain it to you in detail.

Where Does Urea Fertilizer Come From

In 1828, German chemist Friedrich Wangle discovered a compound called urea in urine, which became a milestone in organic chemistry. As a single chemical fertilizer, urea performs particularly well in the agricultural field.

Urea can be processed into various forms of fertilizers and is suitable for fertilization in different scenarios.

1. Liquid fertilizer: Dissolved into liquid form by water, used for foliar spraying or root irrigation.

2. Powdered fertilizer: After urea is processed by a crusher, it is made into fine powdered fertilizer, which can be used as base fertilizer or top dressing.

3. Granular fertilizer: Powdered urea fertilizer is easy to agglomerate. It can be processed into granular urea of different specifications and shapes through a granulator, which facilitates precise fertilization and transportation.


How Urea Fertilizer Is Made

The urea crusher is a fertilizer equipment specially used to crush urea. It adopts a roller-crushing structure to efficiently crush urea into fine powdery materials. The overall equipment has good sealing performance and is not easy to block.

Urea granulation equipment usually chooses a double-roller extrusion granulator. This equipment can granulate at room temperature and adopts dry granulation without drying in the later stage. It can be extruded into spherical particles in one go without any binder, and it occupies a small area and consumes low energy. It has strong adjustability and can meet the needs of different particle shapes and sizes.

Urea Fertilizer Uses And Characteristics

1. Supply plant nutrients: Urea fertilizer contains high concentrations of nitrogen, providing one of the important nutrients during plant growth.

2. Increase crop yield: Reasonable application of urea fertilizer can effectively promote crop growth and increase plant yield.

3. Multiple application methods: Urea fertilizer can be converted into liquid, powder, and granular forms, suitable for fertilization methods in different scenarios.

4. High utilization and absorption rate: Due to the special properties of urea fertilizer, it can be quickly dissolved and converted into nitrogen gas and nitrogen ions, which is easy for plants to absorb.

5. High-cost performance: Urea fertilizer has a relatively affordable price and low cost; and can be used in a large area.


There are countless advantages of urea fertilizer, but you still need to pay attention to the amount of fertilizer used to avoid problems such as the easy occurrence of diseases and insect pests. Due to the unique hygroscopicity of urea, powdered urea fertilizer is more prone to caking problems. It should be stored in a dry and ventilated environment, or processed into granular urea, which is easier to transport and store.
