However, the effect of each is difficult to quantify in practice as these two parameters are usually interrelated. Based on experience acquired over the years and the investigative work conducted by F.C. Bond, it was established that the optimum circulating load for a closed ball mill – cyclone circuit is around 250%.Web

As the circulating load increases, typically the cyclone underflow density increases, causing the density and viscosity in the mill to also increase. This can lead to excessive mill viscosity, causing the balls to float, leading to a sharp drop in the power draw. The operator can be misled to conclude that the mill is overloaded due to the ...Web
