The accumulation of critical size material in the SAG mill charge is thus reduced by a specific combination between mill speed and ball charge (SAG5 and SAG6 tests), eliminating the circulating load (SAG3 test) or, better of them all, including a secondary crushing stage to significantly reduce the amount of critical size material in the SAG ...

10 effective factors for circulating load When increasing pumping energy and pump and cyclone maintenance costs are balanced against decreasing grinding energy and media costs, all as circulating load increases, the optimum economic circulating load can be identified, as it was at Kidd Creek (Table ). [4] The circulating load ratio was lowered from an average of approximately 450% to ...

SAG mills of comparable size but containing say 10% ball charge (in addition to the rocks), normally, operate between 70 and 75% of the critical speed. ... The reason for this is that the circulating load will consist predominantly of the harder component and if the circulating load is high then the mill charge will also consist of mostly the ...

In semiautogenous grinding (SAG), the grinding mill inventory, ( volume of total charge, volume of ball charge, etc.) is important in determining the optimum operating condition for maximum production (tph), minimum specific energy (kwh/t) or lowest cost (/t). A twodimensional graphical method is presented for determining the actual ball charge within the total charge when parameters ...

I too am not an expert in ball mill sizing but from what my general understanding goes, method to calculate Bond's Work Index (WI) takes into consideration a 250% circulating load and ball mill sizing is based on the WI. In other words a 250% circulating load is already factored while calculating the WI.

Based on experience acquired over the years and the investigative work conducted by Bond, it was established that the optimum circulating load for a closed ball mill cyclone circuit is around 250%. This value is used as guideline for the design of new circuits as well as to assess the performance of existing circuits.

a) Calculate the circulating load into the Ball Mill (BM) circuit through CUF (in % wt.) b) If the dry ore feed tonnage from the stockpile to the SAG mill is 2000 tonnes/h and the SAG mill discharges to the pump box at 70% solids (, same as the BM discharge at 70% wt.), how much water must be added to the SAG mill?

The ability to simulate the Bond work index test also allows examination of truncated ball mill feed size distributions on the work index. For grinding circuits where the feed to a ball mill is sent directly to the classifier and the cyclone underflow feeds the ball mill (see Figure ), a question arises as to whether this practice will alter the ball mill work index (BW i) of the material ...

Estimated saving for intermediate autogenous grinding is 65 to 70% of the cost of rod and ball consumption. The test mill required the constant attention of an operator. For a commercial plant with several mills, automation is necessary, using circulating load to control mill feed rate, and mill power to adjust and control media addition.

They will get the %solids, then compute for dilution ratio then finally, %circulating load. and (2) use of particle size distribution the samples taken for %solids will be screened for PSD; then circulating load can also be calculated by just using the %weight of samples in sieve fraction. Which is more preferred when results are not so close?

Smaller particles consume more energy. Open circuit ball mills are not desirable for a number of reasons, and the best grinding efficiency is always achieved with high circulating loads (plan for 400%). You have the ball mill work index, use that to calculate how much energy you need to perform the grind at each particle size.
