Mass loss during sieving process: approx. 1.8%.

Conclusions:
After the preliminary test, it was shown that the majority of the particles (99.9%) was between the receiver pan and 1 mm. So, the principal sieving was made lower than 1 mm.

After the main test, it was shown that the majority of the particles was between 45 μm and 710 μm (refer to graph attached).
Executive summary:

Particle size distribution is determined by manual and mechanical sieving.  Preliminary test was performed to determine the aperture size of the sieves.   Main test was performed on each fraction of the test item obtained by the preliminary test. The fraction were subdivided with test sieves of different aperture sizes and the particle size distribution of the test item is calculated.

It was shown that the majority of the particles was between 45 μm and 710 μm.

 

Description of key information
