Ball Mill Inspection - Chap 2

This document provides guidelines for monitoring, inspecting, and evaluating a ball cement mill production process. It outlines procedures for monitoring cement mill performance including checking weigh feeders, maintaining targeted fineness, collecting samples of raw materials and cement produced, performing gas and temperature measurements, recording operating parameters and specific electrical energy consumption. A template table is also provided for recording mill inspection data, operating parameters, energy consumption, gas measurements and quality parameters.

1.2. Performance
Monitoring the Cement Mill (CM) performance is considered the most critical
aspect of a CM evaluation. The performance monitoring procedure for each
cement type produced should include:
i. Checking the weigh feeders on regular basis.
ii. Operating the mill at the recommended fineness (Blaine) target set by
quality control.
iii. Collecting representative spot sample of each raw material used (~30 Kg)
after any change at the feeding of raw materials. All samples should be
safely kept for further analysis (Moisture, XRF, wet chemical analyses &
LOI).
iv. Collecting samples of the cement produced, as well as from certain
locations of the grinding circuit (mill outlet, filter outlet, separator inlet,
separator rejects and separator fines). All samples should be safely kept
for further analysis (Moisture, fineness (Blaine & sieves), XRF/wet
chemical analysis, LOI, strength analysis, Water Demand, Setting time
(early & late), and Granulometry (laser) analysis)
v. Perform gas measurements (flows & temperatures). Repeat the
measurements after every permanent change at the process parameters.
vi. Perform temperature measurements at the mill shell in order to calculate
the heat loss due to radiation & convection. In case there is necessity to
implement heat balance with boundaries that include the separator,
include the separator to the shell temperature measurements for losses
calculation.
vii. Record the operating parameters.
viii. Record the specific electrical energy consumption.
The following table is submitted as template in case of a mill inspection, while
part of it could be also used in daily operation logging, for the recording of the
CM operating parameters, specific electrical energy consumption data, gas
measurements data as well as quality parameters.
