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.

2 more elements
A method for processing particles, the method comprising:
- introducing a fluid stream comprising particles to an impact processor;
- milling the graphite particles in the impact processor;
- passing the milled graphite particles to an inlet of a secondary classifier;
- separating the milled graphite particles in the secondary classifier into a first graphite particle stream and a second graphite particle stream;
- passing the second graphite particle stream to a recirculation mixer valve;
- and
- recirculating at least some of the graphite particles in the second graphite particle stream to the inlet of the impact processor via a recirculation line from the classifier recirculation valve.
