In industrial production, grinding balls are important grinding media
and are widely used in mining, metallurgy, chemical industry and other
fields. With long-term use, grinding balls will gradually wear and lose
their grinding effect. How to deal with these used grinding balls can
not only reduce resource waste but also reduce production costs,
and has become an important issue of concern
to enterprises. How to deal with used grinding balls will also become
an important topic for every enterprise. Let's discuss it together today.
The first step in dealing with used grinding balls is to collect and classify
them. The loss of grinding balls is usually gradual. Some balls may only
show slight wear, while others may be severely broken or plastically
deformed. In order to maximize the recycling value, grinding balls should
be divided into different categories according to the degree of loss. For
balls with less wear, they can be directly used for secondary grinding or
reprocessing. For broken or severely worn grinding balls, special treatment
is required.
The collected grinding balls usually have some ore, dust or grease attached
to the surface,and these impurities may affect the subsequent reuse effect.
Therefore, cleaning is an essential step. Common cleaning methods include
high-pressure water washing, ultrasonic cleaning or chemical solvent cleaning.
The purpose of cleaning is to remove impurities attached to the surface of the
grinding ball, restore it to a relatively clean state, and prepare for subsequent
reprocessing.
Used grinding balls are mostly made of alloy materials or cast iron, and have a
high metal recovery value. After cleaning, the grinding balls with less wear can
be recast, reprocessed or welded to extend their service life. The recasting
processinvolves melting the grinding balls and adding suitable alloy materials
to recast them into new grinding balls. For grinding balls with severe wear, they
can be resynthesized to adjust their alloy composition and hardness to adapt
them to the new use environment.
Grinding balls that have been reprocessed or recast need to undergo strict quality
inspections to ensure that their hardness, impact resistance, wear resistance, etc.
meet the requirements of industrial use. Inspection items include hardness testing,
impact testing, size testing, etc. If the test is qualified, these grinding balls can be
put into use again, otherwise they should be eliminated or repaired for a second
time.
Reasonable handling of used grinding media balls not only helps to reduce resource waste,
but also effectively reduces production costs. By recycling and reusing metal materials,
not only can the mining of new ores and the energy consumption of metal smelting be
reduced, but also the emission of waste can be reduced, which meets the current needs
of environmental protection. When recycling grinding balls, enterprises can also further
reduce processing costs by optimizing the recycling process and improving the technical
level.
Reasonable treatment of used grinding balls not only helps the recycling of resources, but
also reduces environmental pollution, which meets the goal of sustainable development.
