New to the size reduction and comminution business

Posted in: , on 19. Feb. 2008 - 07:01

I don't know much about size reduction and comminution and would like to know more about it. We deal with mines, cement companies and quarries with conveyor belts but we want to get involved with crushers if I may be allowed to use this word to substitute Size reduction and comminution.

I am looking some kind kind of literature to teach me the basics on the different types of crushers, something like Crushing for Dummies.

I would appreciate your comments.

Thanks,

Rod Sallick

Metso, Pennsylvania Crushers & FL Smidth have some very informative publications on their websites.

A good textbook, possibly the mainstream entry essential is "Mineral Processing Technology""Seventh Edition" author Wills & TJ Napier-Munn - publisher Elsevier - ISBN-13: 978-0-750-64450-1

My first edition, circa 1980, was just by Wills & the publisher was Butterworth.

They are available on Alibris or new from Amazon. All copies are always in excellent condition because you look after a book like that.

Wills,BA, Mineral Processing Technology, Pergamon Press, Oxford, Sao Paulo, 4th edition, 1988.

I still reference this book from time to time after 15+ years in the mining industry! One of the only books I still have from Montana School of Mines!
