“…In order to maintain the given goals, process intensification appears to be one attractive strategy to notably minimize unit volume while keeping the productivity in the mineral refineries. The ultimate goal of process intensification was proposed to intensify the mixing units that deal with ultra-high concentration reactive and/or inert particles in complex fluids (Wang et al, 2012a(Wang et al, , 2012b(Wang et al, , 2016aWu et al, 2016). Ultra-high (fine) solids loadings tend to modify slurry viscosity and/or rheology, and recent experimental and theoretical analysis have showed that homogenization of high concentration slurries in the stirred reactors is rather difficult (Wang et al, 2012a(Wang et al, , 2012b(Wang et al, , 2016a.…”
