Olive stone grinding to produce activated carbon
One of the world's leading producers of activated carbon has installed a complete turnkey milling and process control system from Hosokawa Micron to give them unmanned production 24/7
Its compact conical chamber design is easy to clean and is gas and dust tight .
Heat generation is minimal because of the short residence time and low drive motor powers, which also helps when handling sticky materials without build up.
The Bexmill produces a ground product with a steep particle size distribution curve with minimal fines.
This new generation of Bexmill is easy to maintain with ultra fast access to the inner grinding chamber by releasing external swingbolts , leaving the grinding rotor and inner screen are then fully exposed for cleaning and maintenance.
No dust filtration is required with the Bexmill as there is no airflow which can carry fine dust particles out of the grinding system, unlike in some other milling arrangements.
The unit is extremely compact and mobile and is available in five sizes from 1.5kW up to 15kW with typical throughputs ranging from 200 kg per hour to 8 tonnes per hour .
A wide range of grinding rotor and screens are available hence one mill can cope with many different products just by changing internals.
Truly a versatile mill.
