Abstract Categories for ESCC 2013

As chair of the EFCE working party Comminution and Classification Professor Arno Kwade invites you to be a part of the 13^th ESCC with an oral or poster presentation focused on one of the following categories:

A. Processing of primary and secondary materials, especially minerals and ores
Theme-Chairs: M. Powell, M. Evertsson, R. Schnatz

♦ Integration of new technologies into flow sheets
♦ Improvement of classification steps in grinding circuits
♦ Fine and ultrafine wet grinding and classification
♦ Increase in energy efficiency
♦ Dynamic simulation of milling and crushing circuits
♦ Comminution and classification in recycling processes

B. Grinding, dispersing and classification of fine particles, particularly in pharmaceutical, chemical and electronic industries
Theme-Chairs: A. Kwade, M. Juhnke, F. Müller

♦ Fine and especially nano milling of organic (especially API) and inorganic materials
♦ Dispersion of submicron particles
♦ Dry fine grinding and classification
♦ Product contamination and wear
♦ Processing of battery materials
♦ Characterization of fine particles (e.g. size, shape, surface)
♦ Increase in energy efficiency by use of grinding aids and dispersing additives

C. Fundamentals, modelling and simulation of particle breakage as well as of grinding and classification processes
Theme-Chairs: W. Peukert, L. M. Tavares, M. Ghadiri

♦ Crack initiation and crack dynamics: experiments and MD modelling
♦ Fracture of particles and aggregates: mechanical deformation, defects in particles and aggregates, contact and material models
♦ Energy signature - the underlying relationship between energy and fracture
♦ Transport processes in mills and classifiers: experiments, DEM/CFD models, two-phase flow
♦ Dynamic process modelling - material and machine models

D. New and non-classical applications as well as new developments of milling machines and mill periphery
Theme-Chairs: U. Teipel, A. Chamayou, P. Balaz

♦ Mechanofusion and mechanochemical effects in mills
♦ Processing of renewable raw materials and fibres
♦ Non mechanic milling methods
♦ New mill and classifier designs
♦ Inline and online measurement devices
♦ Handling of particles for milling processes (e.g. API)

♦ Abstracts will be reviewed for an oral or poster presentation.
♦ The conference language is English.
