The particle-size achieved in a batch will normally depend on the type of wet-milling equipment that is used. However, in general particle-size will be a function of the residence time of the slurry in the mill (Stenger et al. 2005). This residence time can be controlled by operating the system in either single-pass or recycling mode.
What is Particle Size Reduction? Put simply, particle size reduction is making big things smaller. For example, if you need large rocks crushed into gravel, that process is an example of particle size reduction. More officially, the definition of particle size reduction is the micronization and milling process to generate a more consistent ...
