Grindability of binary ore blends in ball mills

The paper investigates the size reduction of blends of materials with different grindabilities in a Bond ball mill, as well as in a continuous pilot-scale mill. The accumulation of the harder (tougher) component in the mill charge as grinding progresses is analyzed and a simple empirical model that describes this phenomenon has been proposed.

RESIDENCE TIME DISTRIBUTIONS IN BALL MILLS

ABSTRACT A review is made of the methods and theory of measurements of residence time distributions (RTD's) in mills. Literature data on RTD's is assembled. The mean residence times indicate that some industrial mills are operated in the over–filled condition, leading to poor breakage conditions. Although all RTD's are somewhat similar on a dimensionless basis, there …
