Background: Particles are produced by size reduction extensively across a wide range of mineral, coal and metallurgical industries. They possess many valuable properties and benefits. But they are also challenging materials with bulk flow properties that are difficult to estimate, even within simple process operations. They change their behavior and performance depending on their environment or conditions, etc. Poor understanding of a particle's behavior in response to these behaviors can lead to inefficiency and poor quality.


Particle characteristics like size and shape are essential for liberating and separating valuable minerals from their gangues, improving their separation efficiency, and using them in the modeling and simulation of comminution unit operations. This is because ores must be physically or chemically processed before being transformed into usable metals or finished mineral products. Comminuted particles act differently from the homogeneous spherical particles that are typically used as models because they contain non-spherical particles. Therefore, in mineral processing applications, not only their size and distribution but also their shape become important. Characterizing particle shapes provides chances to boost production efficiency and sheds light on the relationship between process effectiveness and product quality.
