“…The grinding theories have been studied extensively, including the simulation of the grinding operation (Sahoo et al, 2011), slurry rheology in grinding (He et al, 2004;Bazina and Chapleau, 2005;Fuerstenau et al, 2011), relationship between coal petrology and grinding properties (Trimble and Hower, 2003;Ding et al, 2007), consumption of steel media (Ural and Akyildiz, 2004), grinding behavior (Aldrich 2013), and so on. Some advanced technologies, e.g., scanning electron microscopy (SEM; Werner et al, 1999), backscattered scanning electron (BSE) image analysis, X-ray analysis, Mineral Liberation Analyzer, provide automated quantitative mineral liberation characterization (Fandrich et al, 2007).…”
