A discharge end wall system including a discharge wall assembly in which a number of pulp chambers are defined, and one or more plug elements at least partially occupying one or more of the pulp chambers.

A mill includes a housing with a first end portion, a second end portion, and a lateral area disposed therebetween. The housing includes a raw material inlet, an air inlet, a recirculated material inlet, and a material outlet. An impeller is supported by the housing and includes a shaft disposed along the longitudinal axis of the housing, with a plurality of curved blades. A method for milling includes receiving a material of a first size range, introducing the material to an apparatus via a first inlet and introducing air into the apparatus via a second inlet. The method also includes agitating the material via an impeller, where the agitation reduces at least some of the material to a second size range by the time the material reaches an outlet of the apparatus. The processed material is delivered to subsequent processing operations.

The rock crusher has hammers mounted to a rotor and anvils mounted to its casing. First and second anvil sets define a convex surface arrangement facing the rotor and second and third anvil sets define a concave surface arrangement facing the rotor. The anvil sets are oriented to reduce compaction of rocks in the infeed portion of the crusher, and to reduce compaction of aggregate in the casing of the rock crusher. In relation to the movement of each hammer along their work sector, the two operations mentioned above are carried out before a third portion of the work sector wherein rocks are directed to rebound and impact the hammers head-on along the work circle of the hammers. The rock crusher is directly driven by the engine of a potato harvester, wherein the engine, the fan of the harvester and the rock crusher share a common inertia.

In a stator part of an impact mill, attached to an inner surface of an impact mill housing wall, includes a plurality of multifunctional stator tools, which are indirectly detachably attached to the impact mill housing wall, distributed along the inner surface, the arrangeability and replaceability of the stator tools is simplified, so as to increase user friendliness during impact mill operation. This is achieved by having the stator part comprise at least one spring element with spring element recesses. The at least one spring element is circumferentially attached along the inner circumference of the impact mill housing.

A pulverizer for reducing a size of input material particles having a housing, a rotatable shaft with rotor arms and at least one airflow deflector cooperating with the rotor arms to deflect airflow within the pulverizer so as to form at least two overlapping vortices within the interior chamber such that input material particles in suspension in both overlapping vortices collide with each other to be thereby pulverized. The pulverizer also having a housing liner including a plurality of housing liner portions attached to and extending along a outer structural wall of the housing. The pulverizer also having a housing sidewall having an outer structural wall with a plurality of wall sections. The pulverizer also having canted rotor arms and rotor arms with removable wear pads. An anti-caking device for a vessel such as a pulverizer is also provided.

A process for separating carpet fibers from carpet backing uses a grinder of the type having a rotor with a plurality of vertically spaced cutter discs and a fan disc below the cutter discs. Sections of carpet are fed into the grinder which grinds the carpet, separating the fibers from the backing and breaking the backing into relatively small particles. The grinder is connected with a series of ginning equipment for removing the ground backing from the fibers.
