Operators, technology providers and researchers gathered to work through how to benchmark comminution circuits and put shared, proven practice to work on site.
Sessions ranged from data collection and circuit modelling to the practical steps of closing the gap to best practice. Slides and outcomes are in the Resource Centre.
The latest Energy Curves dataset plots participating circuits against the global benchmark, giving operations a clear, comparable read on where they sit and where the gains are.
Sites that acted on their benchmark position reported meaningful reductions in energy per tonne. Participation is open to the sector.
The CEEC Medal celebrates the published technical papers moving eco-efficient comminution forward. This year the recipients were recognised for work that translates research into real operational gains.
Nominations spanned operators, suppliers and research groups from across the global coalition. The winning papers are available in the Resource Centre.
