Abstract: Most of the energy used in mining is consumed in the grinding process. The optimization of mineral comminution leads to an increase in the productivity and energy efficiency of the process. This study presents a new method for the online determination of the state of the mill lifters, using electrical and process variables in the construction of a neuro-fuzzy model of lifter wear.

Energy efficiency improvements in the metal casting industry more likely to be completed when are natural gas prices are high because about 50% of energy requirements are met by natural gas (BCS, 2005). Typical profit margins are below 4%, so volatile energy costs can significantly affect these margins (BCS,

Stirred milling technologies have firmly established themselves in concentrator circuits as energy-efficient alternatives to tumbling ball mills. High and continued increases in electricity costs, coupled with the ever-increasing power consumption by primary grinding circuits due to declining head grades of ore-bodies, provides a compelling case for these technologies.
Moreover,the efficiency of crushing is obviously higher than that of grinding, and the energy consumption of crushing is low, which is about 12%~25% of the grinding. 3. Reasonable filling rate of

In broad terms, this makes SAG mills less expensive to build (in terms of unit capital cost per ton of throughput) than AG mills but more expensive to operate (as a result of increased grinding media and liner costs, and in many cases, lower power efficiency).
The apparent inefficiency of SAG mills when using Bond analysis is widely understood to be due to the difference in the slopes of the size distributions. In contrast, when the SSE75 was calculated, it showed the SAG mill consumed 20% less energy to produce final product material than the ball mill. Since the aim of a comminution circuit is to
Stirred Mills, SAG mills, Crushers and High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR) are becoming increasingly used for fine and ultra-fine grinding. This technology is still poorly understood when used in

wear of a semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) based on the collision energy on lin-er. They concluded that the high energy collision between grinding media and liner was the principal cause for mill vibration and liner wear. DEM simulations were applied to study how shell liner can induce ball segregation in a ball mill

For the industry of mining, the comminution operation is considered to be both energy-consuming as well as an expensive one. So, most people will choose the best action, which reduces the grinding media''s cost and consumption. The grinding media will always influence the factors in the case of SAG mills like hardness, product fitness, sag balls, and…

“The main emphasis is getting rid of the SAG mills and replacing them with Vibrocone technology.” Benn said the savings in energy were high when using the machine.
The SAG mill and ball mill original design was reviewed and a change resulted in the application of a gearless drive wrap-around motors on both machines. This immediately delivered energy savings as
