A 10 MW cement mill, output 270 tonnes per hour. A cement mill (or finish mill in North American usage [1]) is the equipment used to grind the hard, nodular clinker from the cement kiln into the fine grey powder that is cement. Most cement is currently ground in ball mills and also vertical roller mills which are more effective than ball mills.
For a ball mill grinding OPC to a fineness of 3200 to 3600 cm2/g (Blaine) the cost of wear parts (ball, liners and mill internals) is typically EUR per ton of cement. For an OK mill grinding a similar product, the cost of wear parts depends on the maintenance procedures, whether hardfacing is applied.
Within the circuit, the feed is ground in the ball mill initially. Mill filter sweeps the material (bluecoloured line) mainly from the second chamber of the ball mill and noncollected material overflows from the discharge. Afterwards, the two streams (mill product and filter) are combined and sent to the high efficiency classifier via an ...

of ball load composition, by varying the grinding media size distribution ( alternatively by mixing four groups of, 38 mm;, 50 mm; 38, 50 mm and, 38, 50 mm), on the milling efficiency of a laboratory scale ball mill has been investigated in this article concerning ball number, total surface area, and ball weight.
The better mills on the market have an efficiency of about 89 % which means that only 89 % of the energy results in grinding and the majority is converted mainly into heat. The ball mill has the worst efficiency of all types of mills on the market. Just 4 % of the energy is used for comminution. Nevertheless when grinding is required the ball ...
Optimum performance of ball mill could potentially refine Blaine fineness, thereby improving the cement quality. This study investigates the effects of separator speed and mill speed on Blaine ...
When only the HPRM system or the ball mill system was operated to produce cements of the same fineness as the combined process cement, the system throughput was reduced to t/h in the HPRMonly case and to t/h in the ballmillonly case, with the corresponding specific energy consumptions of kWh/t and kWh/t. The works ...
The total electrical energy that is consumed in cement companies is about 100 kWh per 1000 kg of cement, and twothird of this amount just consumes in raw material and cement mill units [3]. Today, one of the most important goals of cement industries is to reduce their power consumption by increasing their energy efficiency [4], [5].
Grindability of a 95/5 OPC at various Blaine fineness: o 2732 kWh/t at 3,000 cm²/g. o 3947 kWh/t at 4,000 cm²/g. o 5869 kWh/t at 5,000 cm²/g. Every 100 cm²/g increase in cement fineness increases the mill power consumption by 12 kWh/t for a closed circuit mill 23 kWh/t for an open circuit mill, a sheer waste if this is not required ...
This research focuses on investigating the effects of the three different grinding aids, consisting of a mixture of amine, glycol and polyol in different ratios, on the model parameters of a twocompartment cement ball mill and an air classifier. Within the content of this work, sampling campaigns were organized around a cement grinding circuit and each of the three grinding aids at varying ...
Ball Mill. Ball mills with high efficiency separators have been used for cement grinding in cement plants all these years. Ball mill is a cylinder rotating at about 7080% of critical speed on two trunnions in white metal bearings or slide shoe bearings for large capacity mills. Closed circuit ball mill with two compartments for coarse and fine ...

Cement ball mills typically have two grinding chambers. The first chamber is filled with larger diameter grinding media and lined with lifting liners. ... Changing the separator to a high efficiency type brings about better residue value (on 45 micron) for the same Blaine. Alternatively, the cement can be ground to a lower Blaine with the same ...
Ball mills as used in mining, cement production and allied industries consume about 40% to 56% of the total electric power supplied. Electric power losses in ball mill operations constitute about 25% of the available power. This paper reports on investigations into ball mill motor efficiency evidenced from a cement plant operations perspective.
For example, the comminution process of cement clinker followed the firstorder grinding kinetics with the balls and rod media. Meanwhile, the grinding rate of the rod mill was higher than the ball mill [22]. The equivalent granule size declined while its specific surface area increased gradually with grinding time [23].
