This paper examines the design of comminution circuits and the issues that impact on comminution circuit efficiency. Circuit efficiency is discussed, principally from the perspective of power efficiency. However, operating efficiency, maintenance efficiency, capital expenditure and return on investment are often the key efficiency factors in project development outweighing power efficiency cons...

This research is focused on the Phase I SABC milling circuit of the Wushan porphyry copper mine. Improvements to the existing circuit were targeted without any significant alterations to existing equipment or the SABC circuit. JKSimMet simulations were used to test various operating and design conditions to improve the comminution process. Modifications to the SABC comminution circuit included ...

On-line monitoring and recognition of mill load status has significant effect on the operating efficiency, product quality and energy consumption for the milling circuit. Due to low reliability to recognize the operating states near the boundary region, a multiclassification model is built to identify the operating status of ball mill load. Spectrum features of shell vibration signals are extra...

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...

Modeling for the ball mill grinding process is still an imperative but difficult problem for the optimal control of mineral processing industry. Due to the integrated complexities of grinding process (strong nonlinearity, unknown mechanisms, multivariable, time varying parameters, etc.), a hybrid intelligent dynamic model is presented in this paper, which includes a phenomenological ball mill g...
