The mill was first charged with certain amounts of grinding balls. Next, the 20×30 mesh quartz feed was loaded into the mill and the measured volume of distilled water was poured in to obtain the required solid concentration in the slurry. The mill was then sealed and rotated on a roller table for a set period of time.

Indeed, if the mill is supplied with more slurry feed than the media interstices can take, the extra material will form a pool of slurry around the toe of the media charge. Tangsathitkulchai [1] hypothesised that for an overfilled mill (see Fig. 1 ), a pool of slurry (1) forms at the base of the ball mill charge.

In the absence of any dispersant, the typical maximum percentage solids in a slurry is approximately 27.4% by volume for the feed of ultra-fine grinding in stirred media mills, whereas an upper limitation of solids concentration is up to 60.15 vol.% in the presence of an optimal dispersant (Greenwood et al., 2002). Therefore, the improvement …

This means that the cataracting stream will be very unimportant for the slurry transport. 5.3.

Rod mill grinding efficiencies have been shown to increase in the range of 5 to 15% with more dilute discharge slurry (i.e., increased feed water) at least down to the range of 45 to 50% solids by volume. The higher the discharge % solids in the plant rod mill, the better the candidate for feed water addition rate test work.
