HIGH G MILL, METHOD OF USING HIGH G MILL, AND BLENDING AND DRYING SYSTEM

摘要

A high G mill includes a revolving disc spun by a high speed spindle. Material enters channels in the revolving disc and due to centrifugal force created by the high rotational speed thereof, the material is forced out of a nozzle located at a respective end of each channel. The material, which is exiting each nozzle at high speed, is subjected to a high shearing force as it exits each nozzle, and then impacts against a collision ring. The shearing force and impact against the collision ring cause the material to comminute, de-agglomerate, and densify. The material may enter the mill in a dry state, such as a dry powder, or mixed with a fluid to create a flurry. A system including the high G mill may also include a spray dryer and a hydrocylcone.
