For the mining industry, our semi-autogenous (SAG) grinding mill uses a minimal ball charge in the range of 6-15 percent. It is primarily used in the gold, copper and platinum industries as well as in the lead, zinc, silver, and nickel industries. Autogenous (AG) grinding mills involve no grinding media as the ore itself acts as the grinding media.
Keywords: Ball mills, grinding circuit, process control. I. Introduction Grinding in ball mills is an important technological process applied to reduce the size of particles which may have different nature and a wide diversity of physical, mechanical and chemical characteristics. Typical examples are the various ores, minerals, limestone, etc.
The mill discharge from these mills consists of slurry, which goes to the ball mills for further grinding, and coarse pebbles/rocks, which are crushed and sent back to the mill. To maximize the capacity of these circuits, the general practice is to use grates with pebble ports (reaching 100 mm) instead of normal grate openings to increase the

Oct 23, 2015· Material is fed into the gap between the rolls, and the crushed material leaves as a compacted cake. The energy consumption is 2.5–3.5 kWh/t and about 10 kWh/t when recycling of the material is used. The comminution efficiency of a HPGR is better than ball mills such that it consumes 30–50 % of the specific energy as compared to a ball mill.
However, plotting the Human Development Index against the annual average energy consumption per capita clearly shows that there are no quality of life gains above a certain energy consumption level (Smil 2004). The only guaranteed outcome of higher energy use is greater environmental burdens which may endanger habitability of the biosphere.
The Coalition for Energy Efficient Comminution (CEEC) has been established and is supported by a broad range of mining sector companies keen to accelerate awareness, knowledge transfer and, by implication, improve energy and cost outcomes in the substantive area of comminution.

Oct 01, 1985· INTRODUCTION Although many factors influence grinding rate and energy consumption in ball mill grinding, liner design {lifter design) is one of the most important parameters. Mill liners {lifters) are the agents to transmit energy and impart motion to the grinding balls, which in turn comminute ore particles( Dunn, 1976).
The impact energy of the milling balls in the normal direction attains a value of up to 40 times higher than that due to gravitational acceleration. Hence, the planetary ball mill can be used for high-speed milling. Schematic view of motion of the ball and powder mixture.
Ball mill is the dispensable device in beneficiation industry, equally, it is the highest device, which accounts for 40%—50% power consumption in the whole production line.Therefor, it becomes the important point for massive customers to concern about the high power consumption. It is also the reason why to promote the production of the new energy-saving ball mill.
Metso has experience of over 8,000 grinding mills globally, including manufacturing and delivering the largest SAG/AG mills in the world. Reduce energy costs 30% energy savings by replacing old ball mills
However, the specific energy consumption is not a function of lifter size. Reducing the lifter height from 2.54 cm to 0.32 cm increases the production from this mill by 37%. When the mill is operated without any lifters, the charge apparently slips inside the shell resulting in lower breakage kinetics and higher energy consumption.
Jan 06, 2014· It has been shown, for example, that the replacement of a SAG mill with a HPGR in a conventional SAG-ball circuit may reduce grinding energy consumption by 15–20%. Taking into account additional savings, such as media and liner wear, it was found that a grinding cost saving of 25–35% was potentially achievable with the use of HPGRs in such

On average, 53% of a mine site’s energy consumption is attributed to crushing and grinding ores accounting for almost 10% of a site’s production costs. Where HPGR technology has replaced traditional methods of crushing and grinding such as SAG or ball mills, customers have seen energy savings of up to 40%, and substantially improved mineral
A feature of ball mills is their high specific energy consumption; a mill filled with balls, working idle, consumes approximately as much energy as at full-scale capacity, i.e. during grinding of material. Therefore, it is most disadvantageous to use a ball mill at less than full capacity.
