Figure 10.1 shows the difference in energy efficiency between a laboratory ball mill and a stirred mill grinding a gold ore using 6 mm diameter alumina balls as media. At a fine grind size there is a clear advantage in energy consumption for a stirred mill over the tumbling mill. However, as the grind size coarsens, the difference in specific energy required to achieve the grind lessens.

The stabilization by wet stirred media milling was realized in a Minicer laboratory stirring media mill (Netzsch, Germany). 1.5 g of PVP was dissolved in 300 mL of the Ag/ORE nanosuspension, thus forming a 0.5% water solution.
power consumption for media. particles and liquid system in stirred mills. The torque is found to depend principally on the impeller diam-eter but hardly on the tank diameter. The lower the ratio of tank to impeller diameter. the finer the product. However. the maximum energy efficiency may be obtained at the highest ratio of tank to
The most common models are a tumbling ball mill and a stirred media mill.

Nanoscale particles can be produced by wet-milling process93. In ball mills, particle size reduction is achieved by using both impact and attrition forces. The most common models are a tumbling ball mill and a stirred media mill. One problem of this method is the degradation of mill surfaces and subsequent suspension contamination.
The medium agitating mill is one of the most efficient devices for micronizing materials and has been in regular use for the production of fine particles and mechanical alloying processes. A typical stirred mill with a vertical rotating shaft and horizontal arms is shown in Fig. 2.20. This …
The stirred media mill is a prospective device for producing ultrafine and nanoparticles. Basically, this mill consists of a stirrer placed in the center of a fixed milling vessel. Such a milling chamber is filled with a milling media (normally, spherical glass, steel or ceramic beads) and a suspension that is a mixture of a liquid (usually ...
Agitator ball mills/stirred media mills: Milling media are moved by a rotating agitator/stirrer in a usually stationary chamber. Depending on the type of milling approach, the energy transfer to the milling media is different resulting in different ball accelerations and …

Stirred-tank bioreactors come in different sizes, for cultures of a few milliliters to thousands of liters, and are made of various materials—usually glass, plastic or stainless steel. The basic components and functioning of stirred-tank bioreactors are always the same. A stirred-tank bioreactor system consists of several parts (Figure 1):
