This, the 8th International Comminution Symposium (Comminution '12) is organised by MEI in consultation with Prof Malcolm Powell and Dr. Aubrey Mainza. It is sponsored by Starkey & Associates, Magotteaux, Maelgwyn Mineral Services, Industrial Minerals & The Gold & Minerals Gazette.
Themes
Comminution '12 has the following themes:
- Improving environment sustainability while driving down costs
- Designing and operating energy efficient circuits
- Designing for the next generation of mines
- Rheology – wet and dry
- Influence on classification and fine milling
- Compressed bed breakage
- How to integrate HPGR’s into circuits
- Dry grinding and classification ahead of wet recovery processes
- Driving into finer grinding
- Fine grinding
- Design of stirred mills – higher capacity, coarser feeds, media wear, energy consumption
- Progress in modelling and scale-up
Draft papers will be published as an unrefereed Proceedings on CD-ROM, and selected papers will be published, after peer-review, in a special Comminution issue of Minerals Engineering journal.
Papers are invited for presentation at Comminution '12. All papers must be written and presented in English, the official language of the conference.
Short abstracts, of no more than 150 words, should be emailed to Dr. Barry Wills (bwills@min-eng.com) by the end of November 2011.
