Hammer Milling and Jet Milling Fundamentals

It is estimated that size reduction accounts for approximately 5% of global energy consumption. Many sources (1–4) describe the fundamentals of material size reduction, but few teach you how to select and size the right type of mill, how to operate your mill efficiently, and how to maintain your mill. There are numerous types of grinding mills.
