Embodiments of the present invention relate to a system for processing battery waste. The system comprises a decomposing device for mechanically decomposing the battery waste to a, in particular strip-shaped or flake-shaped, lightweight portion and a heavyweight portion. The decomposing device comprises an outlet for commonly discharging the lightweight portion and the heavyweight portion. The system further comprises a separating unit for separating the lightweight portion from the heavyweight portion, wherein the separating unit is coupled with the decomposing device for receiving the lightweight portion and the heavyweight portion. The system further comprises a fiber compactor unit, wherein the fiber compactor unit is coupled with the separating unit for receiving the lightweight portion. The fiber compactor unit is configured for compacting the lightweight portion under a separation of a further active material.

A separating device for separating different material fractions out of a feed-material mixture having a flow channel, which has a slope, extends in parallel with the direction of gravity in particular in its main longitudinal extension direction and comprises an inner chamber. The separating device has a first end region, a second end region, a material inlet region intended for feeding the feed-material mixture into the inner chamber of the flow channel, an outlet through which an air stream containing a lightweight material can exit the flow channel, at least one conveying means that conveys air through the flow channel, and a cross-flow device that has a separation chamber and an air intake that leads into said chamber and through which the cross-flow device can introduce air into the separation chamber in a flow direction extending at an angle to the main longitudinal extension direction of the flow channel.
