  • Patent number: 7922108
    Abstract: A method for industrial production of especially fine powders and mineral powders, where the material to be ground is mixed to a gas-solid matter suspension, which through acceleration nozzles (12) is led at least to two counter jets, which meet in grinding chamber (13) for further grinding of the powders. The ground gas-solid matter suspension is led in its turn by means of working gas at least to two intermediate containers (2a);(2b) in the grinding circulation, in which containers the gas is removed from the mixture and into intermediate container (2) a certain quantity of solid matter is collected, which quantity is returned to be ground and led to the other container (2) and the said quantity is circulated through the grinding process among intermediate containers (2a);(2b) until in some container the quality is established sufficient for removal off the process.

  • Patent number: 7461799
    Abstract: This invention relates to industrial production of fine dispersed powders, where the material to be pulverized is mixed with high-pressure working into a gas-solids suspension, which through acceleration nozzles (8) is conveyed to the pulverizing chamber of counterjet pulverizer (9) for autogenous pulverization. The method is known in that the pulverized gas solids suspension is conveyed in the pulverizing circle at least to one intermediate tank (12), where the gas is removed from the blend and solids are collected into intermediate tank (12), which are returned together with new raw material for pulverization till in the equipment a wanted circulation load is achieved, whereafter the process continues so that from it as much ready product is removed as new material is added to it.
