A universal framework for Space Resource Utilisation (SRU)

One such area is size separation; many reduction studies have been carried out using limited size fractions (e.g. Allen et al., 1996; samples were screened at 1 mm), as have many beneficiation studies (e.g. Agosto, 1983, Li et al., 1999, Trigwell et al., 2013). The effect of particle size on the reduction process has been largely overlooked.
