Attrition (Eliminator) Mill

The attrition mill, or 'Eliminator', is the second and final milling stage of the processing system. Switchgrass enters the top of the eliminator and is pulverized using two horizontal side-by-side counter-rotating hammers. The mill's rotors are each powered by a 300 hp electric motor.
