Abstract: Fertilizers that contain urea-aldehyde condensates. The fertilizer can be spherical and can be formed using a granulation and/or spheronization technique and optionally can be an extruded fertilizer that is spheronized.

Abstract: Fertilizer particles containing a core and a shell is described. The core can contain urea, a pH buffering agent, and an urease inhibitor, and the shell can contain urea and can cover at least a portion of an outer surface of the core. The core can include 20 wt. % to 80 wt. % urea, based on the total weight of the core, and the shell can include 50 wt. % to 100 wt. % urea, based on the total weight of the core.

Abstract: Described herein is a method of making a fertilizer granule. The method includes supplying a fertilizer component, an liquid component, a binder and a filler to a zoned extruder comprising a die head, a screw, and at least three zones; mixing the fertilizer component, liquid component, binder and filler to yield a thixotropic mixture; and passing the thixotropic mixture through the die head.

Abstract: Fertilizer particles with urease inhibitors and nitrification inhibitors are described herein. The fertilizer particles can include a core particle comprising a urease inhibitor and an outer layer comprising a nitrification inhibitor.

Abstract: A fertilizer granule containing a core containing, phosphoric acid and an urea adduct containing urea and calcium sulfate, and a coat containing an urease inhibitor and a base, the coat forming a coating on an outer surface of the core. Methods of making and using the fertilizer granule are also disclosed.

Abstract: Method for producing a urea calcium sulfate (UCS) adduct is disclosed. The method for producing the UCS adduct, includes contacting urea with a moist phosphogypsum containing 10 wt. % to 30 wt. % of moisture, under conditions sufficient to form a slurry comprising formed UCS adduct.

Abstract: A fertilizer granule containing a core containing a nitrogen containing fertilizer such as urea and a coat on the core, the coat containing an organic zinc (Zn) complex and an inorganic Zn compound, and methods of making and using the fertilizer granule.

Abstract: A fertilizer blend containing 10 wt. % to 90 wt. % of a first particulate fertilizer composition and 10 wt. % to 90 wt. % of a second particulate fertilizer composition is disclosed. In the fertilizer blend, the second particulate fertilizer composition can be blended with the first particulate fertilizer composition. The first particulate fertilizer composition can include a core containing a binder, a pH buffering agent, and an urease inhibitor, and a shell containing urea, where the shell covers at least a portion of an outer surface of the core.

Abstract: Urea-aldehyde condensation compositions, processes for preparing the same, and the use of said compositions are disclosed. The compositions can have a nitrogen content that is 100% water soluble and can be used as a fertilizer.

Abstract: Particulate fertilizer compositions that include nitrification inhibitors and urease inhibitors are described herein. The inhibitors are separated from each other by being in separate particles. Fertilizer particles in the composition include particles having a core-shell structure, with an inhibitor included in the core particle.

Abstract: Fertilizer particles described herein include a powder composition that can contain one or more urease inhibitors and/or nitrification inhibitors and a filler material embedded within a solid urea matrix. Methods of producing the fertilizer particles involve contacting a powder composition that can contain one or more urease inhibitors and/or nitrification inhibitors and a filler with molten urea under conditions sufficient to form a fertilizer particle having the powder composition embedded within a solid urea matrix.

Abstract: Fertilizer particles with urease inhibitors and nitrification inhibitors are described herein. The fertilizer particles can include a core particle comprising a urease inhibitor and an outer layer comprising a nitrification inhibitor.

Abstract: Organic chelated zinc coated fertilizer core, methods for their use, and production thereof, are disclosed. The organic chelated zinc coating can contain 0.02 wt. % to 0.5 wt. % or more, based on the total weight of the coated fertilizer, of zinc from the organic chelated zinc. The coating can optionally contain or exclude a binder. An oil based coating can be at least partially positioned between the surface of the fertilizer core and the organic chelated zinc coating.
