The most common use of slurry is as a means of transporting solids or separating minerals, the liquid being a carrier that is pumped on a device such as a [[centrifugal pump]]. The size of solid particles may vary from 1 [[micrometre]] up to hundreds of [[~~millimeters~~millimetres]]. The particles may settle below a certain transport velocity and the mixture can behave like a [[Newtonian fluid\|Newtonian]] or [[Non-Newtonian fluid\|non-Newtonian]] fluid. Depending on the mixture, the slurry may be abrasive and/or corrosive. ==Examples== Examples of slurries include: Cement slurry, a mixture of [[cement]], water, and assorted dry and liquid additives used in the [[Petroleum industry\|petroleum]] and other industries<ref>[{{Cite web \|url=http://www.glossary.oilfield.slb.com/Display.cfm?Term=cement \|title=Shlumberger: Oilfield glossary] \|access-date=2012-05-06 \|archive-date=2012-05-31 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120531130250/http://www.glossary.oilfield.slb.com/Display.cfm?Term=cement \|url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>[{{Cite web \|url=http://www.rheonova.fr/en/chemistry \|title=Rheonova : Measuring rheological properties of settling slurries] \|access-date=2013-11-30 \|archive-date=2020-04-18 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200418021320/http://www.rheonova.fr/en/chemistry \|url-status=live }}</ref> Soil/cement slurry, also called Controlled Low-Strength Material (CLSM), flowable fill, controlled density fill, flowable mortar, plastic soil-cement, K-Krete, and other names<ref>[{{Cite web \|url=http://www.cement.org/basics/concreteproducts_clsm.asp \|title=Portland Cement Association: Controlled Low-Strength Material] \|access-date=2012-05-06 \|archive-date=2013-10-17 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131017174048/http://www.cement.org/basics/concreteproducts_clsm.asp \|url-status=live }}</ref> A mixture of [[thickening agent#Explosives and incendiaries\|thickening agent]], oxidizers, and water used to form a [[Water gel explosive\|gel explosive]]<ref>{{Cite web\|url=http://www.iring.ca/_Knowledgebase/module_2_3.html?ms=AAA%3D&st=MA%3D%3D&sct=MjI%3D&mw=MjQw#\|title = IRing - Creators of Aegis, an underground drill & blast planning software that helps a mine improve its effectiveness and efficiency\|access-date=2020-01-02\|archive-date=2020-08-07\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200807045312/http://www.iring.ca/_Knowledgebase/module_2_3.html?ms=AAA%3D&st=MA%3D%3D&sct=MjI%3D&mw=MjQw\|url-status=live}}</ref> A mixture of [[Pyroclastic rock\|pyroclastic]] material, rocky debris, and water produced in a [[volcanic eruption]] and known as a [[lahar]] A mixture of [[bentonite]] and water used to make [[slurry wall]]s [[Coal slurry]], a mixture of [[coal refuse\|coal waste]] and water, or crushed coal and water<ref>[https://archive.today/20130201031501/http://www.redvalve.com/rv/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=137&Itemid=56 Red Valve Company: Coal Slurry Pipeline]</ref> Line 37: :<math>\rho_{l}</math> is the liquid density In aqueous slurries, as is common in mineral processing, the specific gravity of the species is typically used, and since ~~<math>SG_{~~[[Relative density\|specific gravity]] of water~~}</math>~~ is taken to be 1, this relation is typically written: :<math>\phi_{sl}=\frac{\rho_{s}(\rho_{sl} - 1)}{\rho_{sl}(\rho_{s} - 1)}</math> even though specific gravity with units tonnes/m<sup>3</sup> (t/m<sup>3</sup>) is used instead of the SI density unit, kg/m<sup>3</sup>.
