abstract

ball mills are common grinding equipment in mineral processing industries. ball wear results from three mechanisms namely impact, abrasion and corrosion. of these, the corrosion mechanism is the least investigated, due to its chemical-electrochemical nature. therefore, the aims of this research were to investigate the grinding chemistry influence (slurry ph, solid percentage, water chemistry and gas purging) on corrosive wear of steel balls and to determine the contribution of corrosion mechanism to total wear of steel balls. the results indicated that the mass losses of steel balls could be reduced considerably by controlling the pulp chemistry inside the mill. in addition, the results showed that 73.51% of the corrosion products are generated from the oxidation of steel balls. it was also estimated that the corrosion mechanism accounts for 26.68% of the total wear of steel balls.

MODELING AND OPTIMIZING THE CORROSIVE WEAR OF STEEL BALLS IN BALL GRINDING MILL

This paper was aimed to address the modeling and optimization of factors affecting the corrosive wear of low alloy and high carbon chromium steel balls. Response surface methodology, central composite design (CCD) was employed to assess the main and interactive effects of the parameters and also to model and minimize the corrosive wear of the steels. The second-order polynomial regression model...

WEAR RATE PREDICTION OF GRINDING MEDIA USING BPNN AND MLR MODELS IN GRINDING OF SULPHIDE ORES

Nowadays steel balls wear is a major problem in mineral processing industries and forms a significant part of the grinding cost. Different factors are effective on balls wear. It is needed to find models which are capable to estimate wear rate from these factors. In this paper a back propagation neural network (BPNN) and multiple linear regression (MLR) method have been used to predict wear rat...
