The process is described in order to the material flow whereas the control philosophy is written
in order to the signal flow, which is counter current to the material flow.
This Process Group is required to produce a very fine petroleum coke fraction (grain size 003mm with max. 75% <0.074mm) called Ball Mill Fraction which is used as filler material of
the dry mix to be blend in Group 431 H. This very fine material is ground by a ball mill (431 F
100) of the air-swepped type working in a closed conveying air circuit.
The feed material is continuously withdrawn from the storage bin (431 A 320) by means of
belt-weigh-feeder (431 F 010). The flat slide gate (431 F 005) under the storage bin is always
open except if maintenance has to be done on the weigh-feeder underneath.
The material is continuously fed to the ball mill passing a reversing flap (431 F 015), a screw
conveyor (431 F 022) and a double-pendulum flap (431 F 025). The double pendulum flap is
required because the ball mill air circuit and thus the ball mill are working under negative
pressure. If the weigh-feeder has to be calibrated, the material can be directed into a bulker
bag by manually tilting the reversing flap (431 F 015) for a certain time and weighing the bag
later on a platform scale (431 H 096).
In the ball mill (431 F 100) the feed material is ground by steel balls while the coke is slowly
passing the ball mill tube. The mill is capable to achieve a product grain size of about 0-2mm
containing a large portion of 0- 0.074mm size (- 200 mesh).
The circulating air flow, generated by a fan (431 F 245), is passing the mill tube and carries the
ground material via a vertical duct into the airflow classifier (431 F 210) where oversized
material (> 0.3mm) is separated, which is recycled to the ball mill and via rotary lock (431 F
260) and impact flow meter (431 F 275).
A drum magnet (431 F 265) with permanent magnet is removing fine ground iron (abration
loss of the grinding balls) and also small iron particles coming with the raw material, coke.
The air flow classifier is equipped with a number of adjustable baffles, concentrically located
around a motor driven cage wheel. Both baffles and cage wheel are making the air flow
rotating so that coarse particles are separated at the inner wall and in the separator center by
centrifugal force while the finer product is leaving the classifier through the top outlet. The
cutpoint of the classifier is adjustable by a variable speed drive for the cage wheel and by
adjusting the baffles.

Material of required grain size (0-0.3mm) is transported by air flow to the cyclone (431 F 215)
where the fine ground coke is separated from the carrying air flow. Via a rotary lock (431 F
305) the fine ground material is discharged from the cyclone, is then passing an automatic
sampler (431 F 310) and is finally falling either into the fines bin (431 F 400). If the reversing
flap (431 F 325) is switched to the other way, the material is fed to the screw conveyors (431 F
330 / 335) it is conveyed into the Fresh Adsorbent bin (431 F 450). Between automatic
sampler (431 F 310) and reversing flap (431 F 325) is another reversing flap, for fed the
ground material in the first 10 minutes after starting the Ball Mill System via screw conveyor
(431 F 323) in the Filter Dust Bin (431 C 100). The reason for this procedure is the unsteady
quality of the ground material during the start phase of the ball mill.
The air flow leaving the cyclone (431 F 215) is passing the fan (431 F 245) via a motorized
throttle flap (431 F 240), which is closing before start up of the fan and is then opened to a
preset angle to adjust the flow rate.
The throttle flaps (431 F 250 / 255) downstream the fan are used to split the air flow to be send
through the mill and through the mill bypass duct.
A part of the circulation air is withdrawn by a dust collector fan (431 F 230) via a throttle flap
(431 F 225) and through a dust collector (431 F 220) in order to reduce the dust content in the
circulating air and to keep the circulation air system at negative pressure in order to avoid dust
leaks.
Dust separated by the dust collector (431 F 220) is discharged via a rotary lock (431 F 315)
and a screw conveyor (431 F 320) into either the Ball Mill Fraction bin (431 F 400) or into the
bin for Fresh Adsorbent (431 F 450).
With the ball mill operating, filter dust is continuously reclaimed from the Filter Dust bin (431
C 100) by means of the rotary lock (431 F 055), which is equipped with a variable speed drive
so that the feed rate is adjustable. An aeration unit (431 F 051) installed at the Filter Dust bin
bottom avoids bridging of material in the bin. The filter dust is added to the air flow which is
entering the air flow classifier (431 F 210). Filter Dust is only fed to the system when the Ball
Mill System is producing.
Loaded adsorbent from Group 431 G is continuously discharged from the Loaded Adsorbent
storage bin by means of the rotary lock (431 F 355), which is equipped with a variable speed
drive so that the feed rate is adjustable. An aeration unit (431 F 351) installed at the Loaded
Adsorbent bin bottom avoids bridging of material in the bin. The material is added to the chute
feeding the Ball Mill Fraction bin (431 F 400). Loaded Adsorbent is only then fed to the Ball Mill
Fraction bin as long as the bin is filled with fresh Ball Mill Product and is stopped when the
Fresh Adsorbent bin is filled.
For calibration of the rotary lock for Filter Dust (431 F 055) material is fed via the reversing flap
(431 F 060) into a bulker bag (431 F 285). The bulker bag has to be weighed on a platform
scale (431 H 096). Calibration of the impact flow meter (431 F 275) is via reversing flap (431 F
280). Only during automatic run of the complete Group it is possible to switch the reversing
flap (431 F 280) for a short while to the bulker bag.

Main Process Data & Process Highlights

There are various ball mill systems working in green anode plants.
1) The simplest one, shown in figure 1, is an open system consisting of a ball mill and a
bucket elevator. The mill is continuously fed through the left trunnion bearing and is also
continuously discharged through the right bearing by simply overflowing into a bucket
elevator.
Advantages:
-
Lowest investment cost

Simple to operate
Low maintenance costs
Disadvantages:
-
Relatively large mill because of low specific production rate.

Significant part of fines over-ground (high super fines content)
High specific energy consumption because of over-grinding
Relatively high jamming (overflowing) risk
Product size controlled by feed rate only, not by grain size
Environment problems with dust (ball mill, bucket elevator)
The main disadvantage is uncontrolled over-grinding of fines. Fines, which is produced in

the first third of the grinding path, has particles already acceptable in size. The material is
forced to be transported through the next two thirds of the grinding path of the mill before
it is discharged. It is most likely that already fine grains are milled to finer size as required.
For the process of anode making this requires more pitch because of the larger surface
area.
Over-grinding is in principle due for all overflow ball mills.

2) Figure 2 is showing a more advanced closed system with overflow ball mill, bucket
elevator and dynamic classifier. Oversize material is separated by the classifier and
returned to the mill.
Advantages:
-
Relatively low investment cost

Still simple to operate
Good control of product grain size (dynamic classifier and feed rate)
Higher specific production rate as open systems
Lower specific energy consumption as open systems
Disadvantages:
-
Part of fines over-ground (significant uncontrolled super fines content)

Higher maintenance costs (mill, bucket elevator, classifier
High specific energy consumption because of over-grinding
Relatively high jamming (overflowing) risk
Product size controlled by feed rate and re-circulation only, not by grain size
Environmental problems with dust (ball mill, bucket elevator, classifier)
3) Figure 3 is showing an often used closed system with overflow ball mill, static or
dynamic air flow classifier, a dust collector and a fan working as an air lift.

4) Figure 4 is showing a typical closed air swept system with air swept ball mill, static or
dynamic air flow classifier, circulation fan, cyclone and dust collector / fan unit as installed
at VEDANTA. This is the most advanced ball mill system nowadays. The airflow through
the mill is adjustable. Grain of the desired product size, wherever generated is
immediately carried off the mill body by air stream. There is no over-grinding. Product
fineness below 200mesh can be in a certain range controlled by air velocity in the mill
body.
Advantages:
-
Simple to operate but relatively difficult to adjust

Good control of product grain size (static / dynamic classifier and feed rate)
Highest specific production rate
Lowest specific energy consumption
No over-grinding of mill product because air stream through mill body carries
already ground material continuously out.
No environmental problems with dust because whole system is at under-pressure.
Disadvantages:
Higher investment cost (additional cyclone, fan and air ducts)
Higher maintenance costs (mill, classifier, cyclone, dust collector, two fans, air
flaps)
The process group is designed for a maximum Fines production rate of 12 t/hour.
At worst operating condition (No Butts) the Ball Mill Fraction requirement is 8.9 t/h.
At this worst condition it was assumed that no recycled butts are available so that
petroleum coke has to be used instead
At operating condition Nominal Butts AA the Ball Mill Fraction requirement is 7.9 t/h
only.

During commissioning VEDANTA operating personnel has to decide at what capacity

and product grain size the mill system should operate. If for instance the capacity shall
be 10.0 t/hour at a product grain size of 75% < 200mesh then the mill body is filled
with the ball charge but not to the maximum of 29% of the mill volume, equal to 36
tons of balls as possible. The first filling would be 70% of 29% = 20.3 % of mill volume
only and then the system is started feeding only 8 t/hour of fresh coke to the mill.
Then samples are taken from the cyclone product and if the product size is too fine,
as expected, the feed rate is increased step by step until the product becomes too
coarse. Now the next charge of balls is added to the mill in the same distribution as
before until 80% of the maximum ball charge is reached followed by similar test runs.
This will be repeated until the required capacity and product size is reached.
From this moment the ball mill system should always be operated at the same feed
rate. If it runs at a significant lower feed rate the fines content increases and if it runs
at a significant higher feed rate the fines content decreases.
If it is decided to run the mill system at a higher capacity but with the same fineness of
the product, more balls have to be added but never more as 29% of the mill volume or
36 tons of balls in total.
Feed material is petroleum coke of 32 46 Hardgrove
A Hardgrove index of 32 is not very likely when running the mill with calcined
petroleum coke only. It is just a design figure for sizing the ball mill. The lower the
index the harder is it to grind and the more grinding energy is required. Calcined
petroleum coke mainly have Hardgrove indexes of 40 and higher.

Feed material comes from:
Ball Mill Feed bin
0-6mm
1.5 15 t/h
Feed rate can be controlled by belt weigh feeder, electronic ear and impact flow meter
for recycled material from air flow classifier.
Ball Mill Product size (into fines fraction bin):
Design
Normal
Total range adjustable
< 0.075mm
75 +/-2 %
< 0.075mm 65 to 70 +/-2 %
< 0.075mm
55-75 +/-2 %
The product size is mainly determined by:

1. Cut point of the air flow classifier
2. Retention time of material in the mill tube (depends on: feed rate, re-circulation rate
of oversize)
3. Air velocity through mill tube
4. Grinding ball charge (total weight and size distribution of balls)
5. Feed material size distribution
The finer the ball mill product shall be milled the more specific grinding work is
required as the following equation shows:
W = 1 / D 80 out 1 / D 80 in
W = specific grinding work
D80out = product grain size at 80% passing
D80in = feed grain size at 80% passing
Because each ball mill is designed for a maximum specific grinding work and product
fineness there is a capacity limit.
If finer product is required it can be achieved by readjusting the cut point of the airflow
classifier and by reducing the feed rate of fresh material at the same time.
If only the cut point of the classifier is changed to a smaller size without reducing the
feed rate then the amount of oversize returned to the mill is increasing. This would
only raise with each air cycle more and more the material level in the mill until the
material overflows the mill at the discharge end.
During automatic operation of the mill level control system overflowing of the mill
should be impossible because the flow meter and the sonic ear control the feed rate
automatically.

The feed size has also a significant impact on the product size of a ball mill system. It
would be ideal to feed continuously the same rate of coke to the mill but this cannot
be achieved all time. If the feed rate of one fraction has to be changed because there
is a lack or a surplus of material in the Ball Mill Feed bin the change should be
moderate. If a lot filter dust has been added to the Ball Mill Feed bin the product grain
size is shifted to a finer size immediately because filter dust is much finer as ball mill
dust and so is taken directly by the air stream out of the mill body. If much Fine Coke
(3-6 mm) has been fed to the Ball Mill Feed bin then the ball mill product is finally
coarser than usual.

BRIEF PROCESS DESCRIPTION

The process is described in order to the material flow whereas the control philosophy is written
in order to the signal flow, which is counter current to the material flow.
This Process Group is required to produce a very fine petroleum coke fraction (grain size 003mm with max. 75% <0.074mm) called Ball Mill Fraction which is used as filler material of
the dry mix to be blend in Group 431 H. This very fine material is ground by a ball mill (431 F
100) of the air-swepped type working in a closed conveying air circuit.
The feed material is continuously withdrawn from the storage bin (431 A 320) by means of
belt-weigh-feeder (431 F 010). The flat slide gate (431 F 005) under the storage bin is always
open except if maintenance has to be done on the weigh-feeder underneath.
The material is continuously fed to the ball mill passing a reversing flap (431 F 015), a screw
conveyor (431 F 022) and a double-pendulum flap (431 F 025). The double pendulum flap is
required because the ball mill air circuit and thus the ball mill are working under negative
pressure. If the weigh-feeder has to be calibrated, the material can be directed into a bulker
bag by manually tilting the reversing flap (431 F 015) for a certain time and weighing the bag
later on a platform scale (431 H 096).
In the ball mill (431 F 100) the feed material is ground by steel balls while the coke is slowly
passing the ball mill tube. The mill is capable to achieve a product grain size of about 0-2mm
containing a large portion of 0- 0.074mm size (- 200 mesh).
The circulating air flow, generated by a fan (431 F 245), is passing the mill tube and carries the
ground material via a vertical duct into the airflow classifier (431 F 210) where oversized
material (> 0.3mm) is separated, which is recycled to the ball mill and via rotary lock (431 F
260) and impact flow meter (431 F 275).
A drum magnet (431 F 265) with permanent magnet is removing fine ground iron (abration
loss of the grinding balls) and also small iron particles coming with the raw material, coke.
The air flow classifier is equipped with a number of adjustable baffles, concentrically located
around a motor driven cage wheel. Both baffles and cage wheel are making the air flow
rotating so that coarse particles are separated at the inner wall and in the separator center by
centrifugal force while the finer product is leaving the classifier through the top outlet. The
cutpoint of the classifier is adjustable by a variable speed drive for the cage wheel and by
adjusting the baffles.
Material of required grain size (0-0.3mm) is transported by air flow to the cyclone (431 F 215)
where the fine ground coke is separated from the carrying air flow. Via a rotary lock (431 F
305) the fine ground material is discharged from the cyclone, is then passing an automatic
sampler (431 F 310) and is finally falling either into the fines bin (431 F 400). If the reversing
flap (431 F 325) is switched to the other way, the material is fed to the screw conveyors (431 F
330 / 335) it is conveyed into the Fresh Adsorbent bin (431 F 450). Between automatic
sampler (431 F 310) and reversing flap (431 F 325) is another reversing flap, for fed the
ground material in the first 10 minutes after starting the Ball Mill System via screw conveyor
(431 F 323) in the Filter Dust Bin (431 C 100). The reason for this procedure is the unsteady
quality of the ground material during the start phase of the ball mill.
The air flow leaving the cyclone (431 F 215) is passing the fan (431 F 245) via a motorized
throttle flap (431 F 240), which is closing before start up of the fan and is then opened to a
preset angle to adjust the flow rate.

The throttle flaps (431 F 250 / 255) downstream the fan are used to split the air flow to be send
through the mill and through the mill bypass duct.
A part of the circulation air is withdrawn by a dust collector fan (431 F 230) via a throttle flap
(431 F 225) and through a dust collector (431 F 220) in order to reduce the dust content in the
circulating air and to keep the circulation air system at negative pressure in order to avoid dust
leaks.
Dust separated by the dust collector (431 F 220) is discharged via a rotary lock (431 F 315)
and a screw conveyor (431 F 320) into either the Ball Mill Fraction bin (431 F 400) or into the
bin for Fresh Adsorbent (431 F 450).
With the ball mill operating, filter dust is continuously reclaimed from the Filter Dust bin (431
C 100) by means of the rotary lock (431 F 055), which is equipped with a variable speed drive
so that the feed rate is adjustable. An aeration unit (431 F 051) installed at the Filter Dust bin
bottom avoids bridging of material in the bin. The filter dust is added to the air flow which is
entering the air flow classifier (431 F 210). Filter Dust is only fed to the system when the Ball
Mill System is producing.
Loaded adsorbent from Group 431 G is continuously discharged from the Loaded Adsorbent
storage bin by means of the rotary lock (431 F 355), which is equipped with a variable speed
drive so that the feed rate is adjustable. An aeration unit (431 F 351) installed at the Loaded
Adsorbent bin bottom avoids bridging of material in the bin. The material is added to the chute
feeding the Ball Mill Fraction bin (431 F 400). Loaded Adsorbent is only then fed to the Ball Mill
Fraction bin as long as the bin is filled with fresh Ball Mill Product and is stopped when the
Fresh Adsorbent bin is filled.
For calibration of the rotary lock for Filter Dust (431 F 055) material is fed via the reversing flap
(431 F 060) into a bulker bag (431 F 285). The bulker bag has to be weighed on a platform
scale (431 H 096). Calibration of the impact flow meter (431 F 275) is via reversing flap (431 F
280). Only during automatic run of the complete Group it is possible to switch the reversing
flap (431 F 280) for a short while to the bulker bag.

(details please see under 2.7 below)
Material Route (SE 2)

Selection and indication of the state of selection is on SCADA and can be changed any time.
SE 2-1 - Ball Mill Fraction Bin
This is the selection used most of the time.
At this selection Ball Mill Product will be fed to the Ball Mill Fraction bin (431 F 400).
SE 2-2 - Fresh Adsorbent Bin
This selection is used only if the Fresh Adsorbent bin (431 F 450) has to be refilled.
At this selection Ball Mill Product will be fed to the Fresh Adsorbent bin.
SE 2-3 - Auto Select
This selection enables automatic selection of the Ball Mill Feed bin and of the Fresh Adsorbent
bin.
The selection depends on the actual material level in the bins.

SE 3-3 - Sample
If SE 3-2 is selected and the operator is clicking on the Sample button (SE 3-3) on SCADA a
single sample is taken.
2.3.4
Filter Dust (SE 4)

The operator two options:
SE 4-1 Add Filter Dust
The operator may select Add Filter Dust at any time as long as CENTRAL operation mode is
selected and if the reversing flap (431 F 060) is in correct position [limit switch 431 F 060-ZH
activated] so that Filter Dust will be fed to ball mill system air circuit.
SE 4-2 Filter Dust LOCAL
The operator may select Filter Dust Local at any time. Straight with the selection the rotary
lock (431 F 055) stops feeding. Starting the rotary lock requires the reversing flap limit switch
[431 F 060-ZL] to be initiated (flap to calibration). On the Local Operator Panel [431 F 060LOP1] the pilot light [431 F 055-H2] indicates the rotary lock is stopped and thus the LOCAL
operating mode is released (at Add Filter Dust selection all pilot lights on the local panel are
off) and so are the push buttons on this local panel.
SE 4-3 No Filter Dust
The operator may select No Filter Dust at any time as long as CENTRAL operation mode is
selected so that no Filter Dust will be fed to ball mill system air circuit.
2.3.5
Ball Mill Level (SE 5)

The actual level of coke in the mill body is measured by a sonic level measuring system
(electronic ear) [431 F 100-LY].
The material level in the ball mill can be either controlled automatically or manually by the
operator.
The material level in the mill is a function of:
the fresh coke feed rate provided by the belt weigh feeder (431 F 010)
the recycling rate of oversize material coming back from the air flow classifier (431 F 210)
the feed size of fresh coke and recycled coke
the grindability of the feed material (coke)
the mill size (grinding capacity) of the ball mill.
The grindability varies with the source of coke but is more or less fix for short term (hours /
days) and the feed size (fresh and oversize) should be kept in a small range but still is a
variable. The mill size is a design figure and is another fix value.
Thus for short term operation mainly the feed rate of fresh coke and oversize coke from the
classifier have the main impact on the material level in the ball mill. The rate of oversize coke
is a function of the feed size, the grindability and other impacts like the stability of the
circulating air flow and therefore is not fix

The higher the total feed rate is the higher is the mill level and the shorter is the retention time
of material passing the mill body. A typical retention time is 15 minutes.
At low retention time (high feed rate) the chance of a coke grain to be ground to fine mill dust
is relatively low while at a higher retention time (lower feed rate) the chance is much higher.
However the level control system must be able to balance the rate of fresh coke and recycled
coke from the air flow classifier in order to attain the required fineness of the ball mill product.
SE 5-1 Auto Level
The operator may select Auto Level at any time as long as CENTRAL operation mode is
selected.
At this selection the material level in the mill is controlled automatically by variation of the feed
rate of belt weigh feeder (431 F 010) using the following command variables:
electronic ear [431 F 100-LY] material level impact flow meter [431 F 275-FY] recycled material -
Both are input variables for a software-type PID Controller, which delivers the control value
[431 F 010-FY] for the belt weigh feeder (431 F 010).
SE 5-2 Auto Electronic Ear
The operator may select Auto Electronic Ear at any time as long as CENTRAL operation
mode is selected.
At this selection the material level in the mill is controlled automatically by variation of the belt
weigh feeder (431 F 010) feed rate using the following command variable:
electronic ear [431 F 100-LY] material level -
At this selection this is the only input variable for a software-type PID Controller, which delivers
the control value [431 F 010-FY] for the belt weigh feeder (431 F 010). In this case the impact
flow meter is just used for display of the recycled material flow rate.
SE 5-3 Auto Flow Meter
The operator may select Auto Flow Meter at any time as long as CENTRAL operation mode
is selected.
At this selection the total feed rate, fresh feed from the belt weigh feeder plus recycled material
from the air flow classifier shall be kept constant automatically while the material level in the
mill is only displayed but not controlled. The command variable in this case is:
impact flow meter [431 F 275-FY] recycled material -
In this case the electronic ear is just used for display of the material level in the mill but shuts
off the belt weigh feeder, if the level increases too much or gives alarm, if the level is too low.
SE 5-4 Manual Level
The operator may select Manual Level at any time as long as CENTRAL operation mode is
selected.
At this selection the material level in the mill is controlled manually by the operator using
the Operator Station in the Central Control Room.

Shut Down by Other Groups

If this Group 431 F is running in CENTRAL mode it requires the following other Groups also
running in CENTRAL operation mode:
431 C Main Dust Treatment
2.6.2.1 Group 431 C Main Dust Treatment
Because a mayor part of equipment of this Group 431 F is connected to the Main Dust
Treatment it is essential that Group 431 C is running in CENTRAL control mode and is not
in a START or STOP sequence.
If Group 431 C is not running anymore in CENTRAL mode because it has been stopped
by a Normal Shut Down (RESTOP), by a Fast Shut Down (FASTOP) or is tripped through
a fault a Fast Shut Down (see 2.6.3 below) is initiated.
2.6.3
Fast Shut Down

If this Group 431 F is running in CENTRAL mode and an operator has detected a serious fault,
which did not automatically trip this Group the operator is able to stop this Group as Fast Shut
Down (FASTOP).
2.6.3.1 Fast Shut Down by the Operator (FASTOP)

The operator may initiate the Fast Shut Down of this Group at any time on the SCADA system
by actuating the FASTOP button.
All equipment of this Group stops instantly except of the ball mill Sub-Group 431 F 100,
which stops according to the normal stop sequence as described above.
All actual setpoints of this Group are memorized as Actual Setpoint
Reversing flap (431 F 325) is finishing the operating step, if this step has been started
prior to the FASTOP signal and stops, when the target position is reached.
Automatic sampler (431 F 310) is finishing the operating step, if this step has been started
prior to the FASTOP signal and stops, when the target position is reached.
The whole Group is stopped now with full load of material in conveyors.

Trip in Case of Faults

If this Group 431 F is running in CENTRAL mode and an equipment or an instrument of this
Group fails this may cause an Alarm only and, if the fault is of the serious sort, this whole
Group or a part of this Group is stopped. Different faults may cause different stop sequences,
depending on the equipment and on the impact of this fault on the whole process of this
Group. In some cases a Normal Shut Down (RESTOP) will commence, in other cases a Fast
Shut Down (FASTOP) is the safer way and in few cases a special stop sequence may be
required.
Note: All instruments mounted on equipment or located somewhere in the field or
anywhere else are to be wired fail-safe.
