Drying and grinding of coal

The aim of this article is to provide general knowledge about coal mill systems. and to emphasize the most important issues and how coal mills stand out from other mills in a cement plant. Obviously, the main difference is that coal is a fuel and hence the necessary precautions must be taken. It should therefore be of special interest to those who is going to build an entirely new coal mill department or is considering using coal instead of gas or oil or perhaps just changing from one coal type to another. This article can contribute to make the important considerations on an early stage in the coal mill project.
