Typical power consumption for a 5-m diameter by 7-m-long ball mill is between 2.5 and 3.5 MW. The actual proportion of this energy usefully used in size reduction is thought to be very low, perhaps in the range of 1–5%. Significant financial and environmental benefits can be obtained by improving this efficiency even slightly.
compared to the power used by a semi-autogenous mill and a ball mill in a primary grinding circuit; a ball mill can have an installed power of up to 15 MW, while installed power for a SAG mill can go up to 25 MW. However, the energy used for fine grinding is still significant. Moreover, as this paper seeks to demon-
Mill power Usually, plant operators use mill power readings as an indicator of ball filling degree and, often, try to keep it at the maximum level. It is well known that the mill absorbed power depends on operating parameters other than ball level, such as pulp density and liner configuration. Figure 2 shows that there is no linear relation between

The "pulverisette 4" vario-planetary mill is capable of emulating ball mills of conventional design, simulating the types of stress entailed and thus reproduc-ing or optimising grinding processes. Due to the high flexibility available for se-lecting the grinding parameters, it is possible to achieve results unattainable with any other ball mills.
For ball mills, the range is approximately 8kWh/t (mill drive Cement Plant Operations Handbook • 15 29. only) for soft, chalky limestone to 25kWh/t for hard materials. System power consumption is typically 30% lower in roller mills, and combined power consumption may be 10-30% lower if a roll press or other machine is used for pre-grinding.

Scale-up criterion is the net specific power consumption, i.e. the power consumed by the mill rotor itself minus all mechanical and electrical losses divided by the feed rate of solids. For the full scale mill, specific power is multiplied by the feed rate to get the net mill power.
The SAG and ball mill circuits are responsible for 59% of mine-wide electrical energy consumption, equating to 195 GWh of annual electricity consumption. In 2018/2019 the mine commenced energy studies of the comminution circuit to identify opportunities for energy conservation and improving production performance.
