Outotec launched a grinding mill with an open-ended discharge, the OED Mill. This large high-capacity grinding mills offer reductions in both CAPEX and OPEX. Instead of using pulp lifters, the OED Mill discharges material directly through the grates. It uses a novel grate-supporting spider to maximize slurry transport and minimize slurry pooling, the company reported. Key benefits offered include highest possible discharge capacity, maximized slurry transport and impact energy with lowest possible slurry pool level, and optimized serviceability and availability.
