  • Optimal energy management for a jaw crushing process in deep mines 
    Numbi, B.P. (Bubele Papy); Zhang, Jiang; Xia, Xiaohua (Elsevier, 2014-04)
    This paper develops two optimal control models for the energy management of a mining crushing process based on jaw crushers. The performance index for both models is defined as the energy cost to be minimized by accounting ...
  • Optimal energy management of crushing processes in the mining industry 
    Numbi, B.P. (Bubele Papy) (University of Pretoria, 2015)
    It has been shown that mining processes, especially the comminution processes (grinding and crushing) are some of the biggest consumers of electricity in the world where energy management application would have a significant ...
  • Systems optimization model for energy management of a parallel HPGR crushing process 
    Numbi, B.P. (Bubele Papy); Xia, Xiaohua (Elsevier, 2015-07)
    This work proposes a systems optimization control model for energy management of a parallel crushing process made up with high-pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) machines. The aim is to reduce both energy consumption and ...
