Comminution '14 is only 4 weeks away

Comminution '14 starts 4 weeks today and the current delegate list is now available. The fine international technical and social programme (see 16th December posting) is preceded on the Sunday by a JKMRC workshop (full details on MEI Online). The JKMRC is reinvigorating research in stirred milling technology through an industrial collaborative project on ‘Global Best Practice in Stirred Milling Technology’ - including the development of a ‘Fine Grinding Work Index’ and developing generic ‘Media Wear’ testing techniques. The draft proposal has attracted the interest of potential sponsors, including equipment suppliers, grinding media suppliers and mining companies.

The project kick off workshop takes place on Sunday 6th April, and the JKMRC is inviting potential sponsors to participate. The aim is to clearly present the current status of knowledge in stirred milling followed by actively engaging potential sponsors in collaboratively refining the project scope prior to formally starting – a direct benefit to all parties. The Workshop will finish in time for Comminution ‘14 registration and welcome drinks starting at 4:30pm.
