  2. Bulk material handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_material_handling

    The purpose of a bulk material handling facility may be to transport material from one of several locations (i.e. a source) to an ultimate destination or to process material such as ore in concentrating and smelting or handling materials for manufacturing such as logs, wood chips and sawdust at sawmills and paper mills. Other industries using ...

  3. Mineral processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_processing

    A number of auxiliary materials handling operations are also considered a branch of mineral processing such as storage (as in bin design), conveying, sampling, weighing, slurry transport, and pneumatic transport. The efficiency and efficacy of many processing techniques are influenced by upstream activities such as mining method and blending. [25]

    Coal needs to be stored at various stages of the preparation process, and conveyed around the CPP facilities. Coal handling is part of the larger field of bulk material handling, and is a complex and vital part of the CPP. Stockpiles provide surge capacity to various parts of the CPP. ROM coal is delivered with large variations in production ...

  9. Mill (grinding) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mill_(grinding)

    Rod mills are less common than ball mills for grinding minerals. The rods used in the mill, usually a high-carbon steel, can vary in both the length and the diameter. However, the smaller the rods, the larger is the total surface area and hence, the greater the grinding efficiency. [8] Principle of SAG Mill operation
