Slurry rheology affects both the breakage behaviour and the mass transport mechanism in a grinding mill, and hence, influences the milling energy efficiency. The present authors are aware of over 40 references dealing with rheological effects on particle breakage, mass transport, mill power draw, and the use of grinding aids.
