Introduction
|
|
|
|
The mining and mineral processing industries make extensive use of granular processes like blasting, collecting, conveying, comminution (crushing and grinding), sorting and storage of mineral ores. The trend for improved quality and efficiency leads to increasingly complex processing methods that need an increased understanding to developed and optimize them.

One fact
|
|
|
The product value of the mining and mineral processing industry is estimated at $100 billion annually, while comminution of these products accounts for about 1.5% of the total energy consumption. Nevertheless, the efficiency of current crushing and grinding mills is only ~ 1 - 5%.
