Should the slurry density in a grinding mill be adjusted as a function of grinding media size?
The slurry density or pulp percentage of solids and the size of the grinding media are often considered for ball mill optimization. Laboratory grinding tests were conducted to identify possible interactions between the two variables and the fineness of the ground product. Preliminary results show that there is no need to adjust mill slurry density when adjusting the size of the grinding media in a ball mill. (c) 2007 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
