The Future of Comminution - Exploring the Now, New, and Next in Comminution Technologies
Workshop One-Pagers
As part of CEEC International’s ongoing commitment to accelerating eco-efficient mineral processing, this document presents a curated collection of advanced comminution technologies that will be the focus of technical evaluation during the upcoming CEEC Workshop in Cape Town, scheduled for late March 2025. These one-pagers provide a concise yet comprehensive overview of each technology's design principles, operating parameters, control strategies, and potential applications across various mineral processing contexts.
The objective of the workshop is to foster an open, collaborative exchange among industry professionals, researchers, and technology providers, aimed at critically assessing the viability, scalability, and impact of emerging comminution solutions. Through structured discussion and technical benchmarking, participants will explore how these technologies can support energy reduction, enhance mineral liberation, and align with broader decarbonization and sustainability goals.
This selection of technologies—including mechanical, thermal, electro-dynamic, and hybrid systems—reflects the growing need to rethink conventional approaches and integrate innovative tools into mine-to-mill flowsheets. Each onepager serves as a reference point to guide comparative analysis and inspire dialogue on how we collectively advance the future of efficient, low-impact mineral processing.
