In the present work, numerous operating parameters such as solid mass fraction, grinding media size, media filling ratio, and grinding time have been investigated using a vertical type stirred media mill. The results are evaluated on the basis of mean particle size, specific surface area, and specific energy consumption. After conducting this study, optimum experimental conditions found to be as 70% media filling ratio, 25% solid mass fraction, 1 mm grinding media size, and 120 min grinding time. Besides, energy savings up to 22% were achieved with the choice of proper media size.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessStirred media millCalciteWet grindingSubmicron particlesEffect of Operating Parameters on the Breakage Process of Calcite in a Stirred Media MillArticle36239940810.1007/s42461-018-0008-82-s2.0-85069651279Q2WOS:000474227100015Q4
