A method of reducing dust formation and caking in fertilizer comprising coating the fertilizer in a bituminous emulsion. The coating may comprise bitumen, cutback bitumen, or a combination of bitumen and cutback bitumen comprising 20-100% bitumen. The bitumen, cutback bitumen, or combination thereof may be emulsified with water prior to being sprayed on the fertilizer.

A urea phosphate calcium sulfate (UPCS) fertilizer granule and methods for making and using the same are disclosed. The granule can include urea phosphate and a urea-calcium sulfate (UCS) adduct. The granule can include 22 wt. % to 28 wt. % nitrogen (22 wt. % to 28 wt. % N), an amount of phosphorus equal to that provided by 5 wt. % to 10 wt. % P2O5 (5 wt. % to 10 wt. % P), 2 wt. % to 8 wt. % sulfur (2 wt. % to 8 wt. % S), and 5 wt. % to 11 wt. % calcium (5 wt. % to 11 wt. % Ca).

A method of processing biological solids includes blending a sludge with calcium oxide and delivering the blended sludge and calcium oxide to a pressurized container; injecting, into the blended sludge and calcium oxide in the pressurized container, an additive capable of exothermic reactions with the calcium oxide; regulating pH in the pressurized container to produce class A biological solids from the sludge; and pumping the blended sludge, calcium oxide, and additive from the pressurized container to a reactor. A system used for this process include sources of calcium oxide and biological solids, an additive injector, and a pressurized reactor.
