Millennia of continuous innovation have driven ever increasing efficiency in the milling process. Mechanically characterizing wheat grains and discerning the structure and function of the wheat bran layers can contribute to continuing innovation. We present novel shear force and puncture force testing regimes to characterize different wheat grain cultivars. The forces endured by wheat grains du...

This work aims at comparing different preparation chains to produce wood powders suitable for further gasification in an entrained flow reactor. Three powders, with particle size below 1 mm, have been produced pilot scale from resinous chips: a powder of raw and torrefied both ground knife mill, vibration mill. The respective requirements energy feedstock material resource determined each chain...

The aim of this research work was to investigate on the ball filling estimation of Miduk semi-autogenous (SAG) Mill via an utilized method. Miduk copper concentrator is located in Kerman Province, Iran, and its size reduction stage includes one gyratory crusher which feeds one SAG mill (9.75 dia.(m)*3.88 length(m)) following two parallel ball mills (5dia.(m)*7lenght(m)). After SAG mill, a tromm...

Chemical analyses of iron ore samples are crucial to identifying the characteristics being mined and processed by mining industries. Moreover, reliable content results fundamental optimizing plant operation correctly pricing final product. An industrial laboratory usually performs hundreds per day requires a certain amount equipment increase capacity. However, parallel chemical approach demands...
