CEMENT GRINDING SIMULATION To optimise cement grinding, standard Bond grinding calculations can be used as well as modelling and simulation techniques based on population balance model (PBM). Mill power draw prediction can be carried out using Morrell's power model for tumbling mills (Morrell, 1998).

A first principles model of a cement grinding circuit is developed for the purpose of multi-variable model predictive control (MPC). The model is based on a series of mixed flow reactors with an ideal screen to model flow between the two chambers in the ball mill. The separator is modelled by efficiency curves.

The resulting model of the closed-loop grinding circuit, which is given by relations (4-8) is much simpler and the purpose of the next section is to demonstrate the agreement of this simplified model with the complex, first-principle model detailed in Section 2, based on a set of particular experiments. 4.

In cement manufacturing, the finish grinding circuit consumes more energy from the raw grinding circuit. Thus, it is necessary for the system to have an efficient air classifier in order to reduce the energy consumption of the cement production. A mathematical model was developed for describing the air classification in the air classifier, in the finish grinding circuit.

In order to investigate the effects of GA on cement grinding circuit, three different dosages of a commercial GA were tested and samples were collected around the circuit. The GA used during the tests was amine-based (major active material was triethanolamine) and has a specific gravity of 1.033 g/cm 3 and a pH of 10.73.

A cement mill is a grinding machine that used to grind hard, nodular clinker from cement kiln into fine powder that is cement. At present, most cement is ground in ball mills. As the rapid development of construction, more and more cement are required. Grinding systems are either 'open circuit' or 'closed circuit.'.
