Optimizingtheballsizedistributioninfinishmillingofcementusingmodelling andsimulation resultedinhigherproductionrate,reducedoverallspecificenergyconsumptionandlowercost ofmetalwear.
TheuseofHPGRsinfinishmillingcircuitsaspregrinders increasesthecapacityoftheexistingcircuitsbyreducingtheworkdonebythedownstreamballmills.ClosedcircuitHPGRs reducesignificantlytheoverallspecificenergy consumptionofthecircuit.
