Ball mill load monitoring and vibration analysis lie at the heart of optimising industrial grinding processes, which are pivotal in the mining and mineral processing sectors. These techniques combine ...

In its most precious variants, corundum forms rubies and sapphires because of traces of chromium, iron, or titanium. However, material scientists are not that interested in it as a gemstone. Because ...

Smashing compounds together to get them to polymerize sounds more like desperation than effective organic chemistry. But chemists Timothy M. Swager of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Jens B.

This is a ball mill used for refining materials into a fine powder. [Jpoopdog] built it in two parts, a base and the tumbler chamber. The base itself is build using LEGO wheels as rollers. The motor ...

Scientists from the German Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM), in collaboration with DESY, have developed a promising new filter material to remove harmful PFAS “forever ...

Dropped charge, also known as frozen or locked charge, occurs when solidified material inside a horizontal grinding mill does not cascade when the mill starts rotating at start up. Instead, it is ...
