Eggshells are among the agro-based wastes from food processing in industries and households, causing adverse environmental impacts on our environment. In the dry grinding experiments conducted in the study, the effects of five dosages of ten grinding aids from five groups on the product were investigated, and it was planned to reduce the adverse impacts of waste on the environment by using it efficiently. Furthermore, the combinations of chemicals yielding the best results in each group in terms of particle size were also tested under the same conditions. The present research investigated the influence of grinding aid type and amount in various groups on product size (d10, d50, and d80), energy consumption (kWh/t), and grinding media coating (g/m2). The current research is promising in preventing the depletion of natural resources and transforming waste into valuable and usable products. Moreover, the utilized grinding aids considerably enhanced the grinding performance. In all experiments with grinding aids, better results concerning product size, energy consumption, and grinding media coating with the product were achieved in comparison with the tests without grinding aids.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessStirred media millDry grindingRecyclingEggshellGrinding aidsArticle40410.1016/j.conbuildmat.2023.1332472-s2.0-85170645102Q1WOS:001075894900001Q1
