Abstract
A system is disclosed. The system includes an impact processor comprising an inlet and an outlet, a secondary classifier comprising an inlet and an outlet, the secondary classifier being downstream of and coupled to the impact processor, a recirculation mixer valve downstream of and coupled to the outlet of the secondary classifier, and a recirculation line coupling the outlet of the first secondary classifier to the inlet of the impact processor.
Claims8
A system comprising:
- an impact processor configured to mill graphite particles, and comprising an inlet and an outlet;
- a secondary classifier configured to classify graphite particles and comprising an inlet and an outlet, the secondary classifier being downstream of and coupled to the impact processor;
- a recirculation mixer valve downstream of and coupled to the outlet of the secondary classifier;
- and
- a recirculation line coupling the outlet of the secondary classifier to the inlet of the impact processor,
- wherein the secondary classifier is a first secondary classifier, the recirculation mixer valve is a first recirculation mixer valve, and the recirculation line is a first recirculation line, and wherein the system further comprises:
- a second secondary classifier comprising an inlet and an outlet, the second secondary classifier being downstream of and coupled to the first secondary classifier;
- a second recirculation mixer valve downstream of and coupled to the outlet of the second secondary classifier;
- a second recirculation line coupling the outlet of the second secondary classifier to the inlet of the impact processor:
- a third secondary classifier comprising an inlet and an outlet, the third secondary classifier being downstream of and coupled to the second secondary classifier;
- a third recirculation mixer valve downstream of and coupled to the outlet of the second secondary classifier;
- and
- a third recirculation line coupling the outlet of the second secondary classifier to the inlet of the impact processor.
