1) alite size, as before. 2) C2S content, as before. 3) grinding aid. Cost 0.6-1.2 €/t, usage 150-400 g/t. As the cement particle gets smaller the pores disappear and no longer become a factor. Increasing the amount of grinding aid will make the cement easier to grind. Hard burning = hard grinding.
1.5.1. The Ball Mill. Ball mills or tubular mills are built with diameters up to 6.0 meters and lengths up to 20 meters; the drive ratings today are as high as 10,000 kW with stable operation, and maintenance of a ball mill is relatively simple . The maintenance cost and the capital cost are relatively low compared to other technologies.
2.3. Laboratory Ball Mill. The pilot-scale ball mill is used to study and analyze the grinding process of these rocks. Table 4 and Table 5 show the dimensions of the grinding media (balls), as well as other characteristics. The ball mill used in this article is the SM-500 model from the Cement Test Mill brand.
From the result of the tests, contrary to expectations, different results were obtained between the grindability data and kinetic breakage parameters. ... Dry grinding is one of the most important issues for the chemical, mineral, cement industries, and solid-fuel-burning power plants. ... Deniz, 2022). On the other hand, the Bond test relies ...

Even though not practical mixtures such as C 100 G 0 were evaluated in this work, this was purely from a mathematical point of view in order to obtain a better sampling of the independent variables (i.e. the mixture composition) using a simplex-centroid design.. Resistance to Grinding. A total of 700 ml of each blend were introduced in a 0.30 m cast …
The Bond Ball Mill Grindability test is designed to give a measure of the grinding characteristics of a material by finding the amount of size reduction resulting …
This study considersclinker grinding in ball mill.We proposemore precise empirical equation for modified HGI relating withgrindability m, for broad based application for variety of …
Bond grindability tests. The ball mill grindability tests were conducted in a standard Bond mill for 90-μm test sieve. As received, the slag was finer and hence the clinker was also reduced down to similar fineness by crushing in a roll crusher and −3.36 mm samples were used as feed materials for the tests.
(commercial grinding additives) was tested at various dosage in ball grinding mill at fixed grinding condition (ball size, speed and filling ratio). The product was tested for their size distribution using laser sizer while compressibility test (Carr's Index) was used for this study. 3. Result and Discussion 3.1 Industrial experimental work
It was found that the ball mill consumed 54.67 kWh/t energy to reduce the F 80 feed size of 722.2 µm to P 80 product size of 275.4 µm while stirred mill consumed 32.45 kWh/t of energy to produce the product size of 235.6 µm. It also showed that stirred mill produced finer product than the ball mill at around 40% lesser consumption of energy.
A sampling campaign was performed around the cement grinding circuit, during the CEM II B-M (P–W) 32.5R type blended cement production. In accordance with EN 197-1, CEM II B-M (P–W) type cement is composed of 65–79% cement clinker and 21–35% pozzolan + calcareous fly ash. The term "CEM II B-M" indicates Portland …
Three cements were ground in a laboratory ball mill to a specific surface area of 4200 cm 2 /g (according to Blaine). Cement composition was constant for all investigated samples: 95% of Portland clinker and 5% of anhydrite (by mass). Such approach allowed the influence of each grinding aid on the properties of the obtained …
The energy consumption in the cement. mills varies between 30 to 50 kWh/ton. Clinker grinding test was conducted in a laboratory mill, 500 mm x 500. mm, for a time of 5 min and the amount of 3.5 kg of clinker. The experiment was done for clinker obtained by. firing pet-coke as fuel and clinker obtained by firing coal as fuel.
As a general rule, there should be less than 25% of clinker that is below 1mm in size. Coarse clinker is more of an issue for ball mills. Some cement groups use a formula, such as Bond's, to calculate the maximum ball size required in a ball mill, based on the average size of the clinker feed. However, one drawback with this approach is …
