North West Queensland Branch
Real-time estimation of SAG mill charge characteristics for process optimisation
1
Join the AusIMM North West Queensland branch for their September technical session presented by Paul Toor from Toornado Metallurgy.
About this event
The Morrell C-model is generally regarded as one of the most accurate tumbling mill power-draw models and is ideally suited for this application of estimating fill levels of the SAG mill in real time. This presentation will summarise three methods of using the Morrell C-model to estimate total and ball charge volumes for SAG mills, depending on the data and measurements available. The methodologies outlined all allow analysis of real-time data and large data sets spanning months and years of operation, thus facilitating identification of optimum operating conditions and aiding in early detection, trouble-shooting, and rectifying poor mill performance.
