Crushing and Screening

£25.00

(Ken Rothery & Steven Mellor 2007 pp268)

The first edition of this handbook, 'An Introduction to Crushing and Screening', written by Steve Mellor, has been thoroughly revised by Ken Rothery, a senior engineer who worked for one of the major aggregate producers for many years. Ken has used his experience of designing and commissioning crushing and screening plant to comprehensively review, up-date and extend the introductory text.

All of the latest technical innovations are described and the very important issues of health and safety in the working environment of a processing plant are fully addressed and up-dated to the date of publication. Much more information is given upon the performance, capacity and maintenance of crushing and screening equipment and advise is given upon obtaining full utilisation of processing plant and identifying faults. Finally, a new chapter is devoted to 'recycled aggregates'.
