A cement mill produces 120 tonnes an hour with a separator return of 240 tonnes an hour. What is the circulating load as a percentage?

  • A.300 per cent
  • B.120 per cent
  • C.200 per cent
  • D.50 per cent

Answer: C

Correct answer: 200 per cent

The circulating load is the returned material as a percentage of the finished product: \[ \frac{240}{120} \times 100 = 200\ \mathrm{per\ cent}. \] The mill itself is therefore handling 360 tonnes an hour to deliver 120, which is normal for a closed circuit and is what allows the separator to keep the product uniform.
