There are a variety of control strategies that one may consider for mill circuit control and often several methods for implementing each strategy.Ideally, the control strategy selected and methodology used in it's implementation should not only optimize circuit performance in terms of productivity but also be able to optimize quality.A linear quadratic multivariable controller has been applied to milling circuits and these goals successfully accomplished.The results are a stable circuit with mill and separator optimized, producing a consistent quality product of a predictable fineness. This enables one to use cement quality as the single circuit control set point.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
