Slurry rheology influence on the performance of mineral ...
This article summarizes slurry rheology influence on the grinding throughput of batch laboratory and continuous plant-scale mills operating in open and closed circuit configurations. The results of controlled changes in percent solids, particle size, slurry temperature, and viscosity control chemicals were demonstrated. More specifically, dilatant slurries show first order breakage.
