The digital transformation is still little consolidated in Brazilian society. Improvements in performance and differentiation resulting of such transformation have not yet been fully absorbed in companies and in the public administration. In general, solutions required for implementing the digital transformation in cities and in manufacturing processes combine advanced connectivity and au…
The wear of grinding media figures between the major expenses in the mineral processing. Although the methodology to quantify the wear rate is already established, the individual contribution of the process variables and the ore itself is not yet fully understood, because of the great number of variables and their interaction. A mathematical model to predict the consumption of grinding me…
Comminution is an essential unit operation in mineral processing as it affects both economical and technical performances of industrial circuits. Due to the extremely high energy consumption, marginal increases in process efficiency usually represent significant reductions in operating costs, as well in capital expenditures.New technologies and design methods have been progressively inco…
