The invention relates to a belt drier arrangement for drying an aqueous polymer gel and for comminuting the dried polymer gel to give dried polymer particles, comprising: a drier setup for drying an aqueous polymer gel, a comminuting arrangement downstream of the drier setup relative to the product flow direction, for comminuting the dried polymer gel to give dried polymer particles. In accordance with the invention the comminuting arrangement comprises at least a first comminutor and a second comminutor, each having a rotatable shaft with functional tools, the second comminutor being disposed downstream of the first comminutor relative to the product flow direction.

A blow bar for inserting in a holder of a rotor of an impact crusher defines a longitudinal axis in a z-direction, a vertical axis in a y-direction, and a transverse axis in a x-direction. The blow bar includes two rectangular heads respectively arranged at upper and lower ends of the blow bar and defining there between a middle region, in which the longitudinal axis centrally determines a position of a y-z plane. Each head has side surfaces extending parallel to the y-z plane and parallel at a first spacing to define a thickness between the side surfaces. The two heads are situated offset to the y-z plane in opposite direction by a second spacing in the transverse direction, thereby forming support shoulders in a transition to the middle region. The middle region has a thickness which is not less than the first spacing of the side surfaces.

Disclosed embodiments include diesel-electric powered, substantially heavier (e.g., 120 ton), larger (e.g., 11′ 8″ and 12′ 6″ diameter wheels), and more powerful (e.g., 250-350 hp per wheel) landfill compactors. Disclosed embodiments also include an integral hammer mill, oriented in an “upside-down” configuration to additionally compact landfill waste.

A tool for tilling and comminuting in a tool carrier with rotor which is rotatable about the rotor axis, the tool is received in a receptacle of the tool carrier arranged on the rotor. The receptacle is formed by a first face provided in the cutting direction and second face on which the tool is fastened by means of its face which faces away from the cutting direction, the tool has a body which has an end face in the direction of rotation of the rotor and a rear face opposite the end face. The rear face is inclined by 1° to 10° with respect to the end face and the tool is braced and held between the face in the cutting direction of the receptacle and the face of the receptacle that faces away from the cutting direction, play is left between the tool and receptacle base.
