Implementing best practices and new advances through R&D can save 356 TBtu/yr in grinding and 111 TBtu/yr in materials handling. By reducing the energy consumption of these two processes to their practical minimum, the mining industry would save about 467 TBtu/yr, or 37% of current energy consumption.

Generally, for this type of circuit, the ore must be competent so large ore chunks can be used to grind smaller ones. If ore alone is used, then the circuit is autogenous; but if balls are added to supplement the charge, then the circuit is termed semiautogenous.

During grinding (usually in water), the ore is ground from a maximum 20 mm diameter down to about 0.3 mm or less The comminution process remains inherently inefficient. 85% of the energy used is dissipated as heat, 12% is attributed to mechanical losses and only 1% of the total energy input is used in size reduction of feed material.

The minimum energy consumption for making steel can be determined by thermodynamics. For the reduction of iron ore the thermodynamic minimum is 6.6 GJ t −1 of pig iron [ 10 ]. However, the net energy use of a modern blast furnace is in the range of 12.5-15 GJ t −1 of pig iron, which is about twice the theoretically lowest SEC.

As an example, they can adjust feed rates based on ore hardness. Dynamic APCs solve for the best possible actions at any given time and are therefore suitable for complex production facilities, such as refineries. Coupled with high-quality predictive models, dynamic APCs can solve multiple objectives, allowing for system-level optimization.
