Abstract

The methods for superfine grinding are reviewed in the light of recent experience at the Midland Coke Research Station during the grinding of coke and other materials.

The wet and dry processes arc compared, and it is shown that with dry grinding the end of effective grinding is caused by caking of the material in the mill. Wet grinding, by avoiding ultimate caking, enables grinding to continue to n further stage.

The effect of size and type of ball is discussed, and the benefits obtained by adding different alkalis and other materials during wet grinding are described and compared.
