An Efficient and Simple Multiple Criteria Model for a Grinding Circuit Selection Based on MOORA Method

The comminution process, particularly grinding, is very important in the mineral processing industry. Some characteristics of ore particles, which occur as a product of grinding process, have a significant impact on the effects of further ore processing. At the same time, this process requires a significant amount of energy which significantly affects the overall processing costs. Therefore, in this paper, we propose new multiple criteria decision making model, based on the Ratio system part of the MOORA method, which should enable an efficient selection of the adequate comminution circuit design.
