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.

An apparatus for processing materials includes a chamber within which frequency turbine plates rotate relative to a circumferential wall having diametrically opposed portions which are asymmetric relative to each other. The circumferential wall with asymmetric arrangement in this manner promotes the generation of pressure differentials and interference wave phenomena when plates are rotated relative to such asymmetric arrangements, and thereby facilitates materials being processed through the associated apparatus. One suitable form of the apparatus comprises a pressure interference wave mill suitable for processing materials, such as slag.

A crusher having a substantially tubular casing, closed in an upper region by a cover and in a lower region by a base. The crusher also includes a rotating shaft, which is internal and coaxial to the casing, with multiple supporting elements, each element for supporting a number of crushing elements, being keyed to the shaft. The crushing elements have circular trajectories with a circumference that at least partially increases from the upper region toward the lower region of the crusher.

A chip separator configured to disentangle clusters of chips in a collection tank is disclosed. The chip separator includes a horizontal plate having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, a motor assembly coupled to the first surface of the horizontal plate; and a pulverizer operably coupled to the motor assembly and disposed away from the second surface of the horizontal plate by a distance. The pulverizer includes a base plate and a plurality of pulverizer attachments operably coupled to the base plate. The motor assembly is configured to rotate the pulverizer such that the plurality of pulverizer attachments of the pulverizer disentangles clusters of chips disposed in the collection tank.

Filter material, mainly in form of industrial remnants from the production of the filter fillings, is processed without the intake of the heat in such a way that it is cut in the disintegrator (4) at the presence of the air, where the material is during retention time repeatedly led to the contact with the rotating blades and bunches emerge in the disintegrator (4) through aeration. The flat carrier (3) is thus at least partially disintegrated to the original fibers (1); the released fibers (1) intertwine into bunches and the active carbon (2) is released from the original bond with the flat carrier (3). The swirl (vortex) created inside the disintegrator (4) carries the dust particles of the active carbon (2) and they adhere to the surface of the fibers (1). Part of the released active carbon (2) is—after the separation—carried away from the emergin bunches, which in the lower part of the disintegrator (4) run through the sieve out of the disintegrator (4). The resulting product is advantageously applicable as heat and noise isolation in all fields of technology, for example construction. The separated active carbon (2) in form of granules is also a resulting product of processing.

An apparatus for tearing meat is disclosed. The apparatus includes a gravity-fed hopper including at least one sidewall that forms a first opening configured to receive meat articles and a second opening configured to discharge torn meat articles. The apparatus includes a rotatable spindle element positioned at least partially within the hopper and downstream of the first opening. The rotatable spindle element includes a shaft having a longitudinal axis and a plurality of teeth coupled to the shaft, the teeth being spaced apart from one another. The apparatus includes a plurality of rods, which extend from the sidewall spaced apart from one another and which are interlaced with the plurality of teeth, and a motor coupled to the rotatable spindle element configured to rotate the rotatable spindle element to cause at least some of the plurality of teeth to rotate and pass between two different rods.
