Dans le cas des broyeurs à cuves vibrantes un récipient généralement tubulaire contient des corps broyants et de la matière à broyer. Le récipient est monté sur une suspension élastique et un mécanisme par masse excentrée fait vibrer le récipient. Le mode de broyage convient aussi bien pour le broyage grossier, fin et ultrafin.(...) Une variante intéressante des broyeurs à cuves est le broyeur vibrant à barres(...). Il existe également des broyeurs vibrants à boulets. Ceux-ci peuvent pratiquer des broyages fins, voire très fins(0 à quelques micromètres ou dizaines de micromètres).(...) Les broyeurs vibrants combinent un effet de frottement et un effet de percussion. 1, record 1, French, - broyeur%20vibrant%20%C3%A0%20boulets

Les principales impuretés gazeuses responsables de cet aérosol fin et ultrafin sont SO2, H2S, NH3 et les hydrocarbures. En fait, le responsable principal est SO2 qui conduit à des gouttelettes d’acide sulfurique et à des particules de sulfates sous l'action de trois mécanismes principaux : l'oxydation photochimique, la réaction, en présence de gouttelettes d’eau, de l'ammoniac et du SO2 et enfin l'oxydation catalytique en présence de particules de métaux lourds. 2, record 2, French, - particule%20de%20sulfate
