A comminution mill is described that includes a vertically oriented cylindrical housing with an intake chute in a top wall and an outlet chute in a bottom wall thereof. A rotatable shaft with a plurality of radially extending cables is disposed coaxially within the cylindrical housing. A plurality of studs extends inwardly from the wall of the housing to slow and collect materials flowing through the comminution mill. The studs can be withdrawn to discharge materials collected thereon. Slits are provided in the walls of the housing to enable the exit of particulate materials from the housing. A hood is provided overlying the slits on the exterior of the comminution mill for collecting the particulate material. Operation of the comminution mill provides a self-generated airflow and can be configured to separate, grind, and dry materials disposed therein.

A grinding mill includes: a disc having a plurality of pins that grind a material to be ground; a housing that rotatably houses the disc; a collection port through which a ground material obtained by grinding the material to be ground is collected; a ground material flow passage that connects the housing and the collection port to each other; and an air return flow passage that is branched from the ground material flow passage and connected to the housing.

A processing assembly for processing kitchen organic garbage and waste of farms includes a tank with a grinder located therein. The grinder grinds the garbage and waste by blades and rotatable blades. A transition can is connected between the tank and a deodorant pool which has deodorant bacteria received therein to remove odors. A one-way filter is connected between the transition can and the deodorant pool. A vacuum pump is connected between the tank and the transition can to suck air in the tank to the deodorant pool and to separate water from the vapor air. The water is stored in the transition can. The volume and weight of the garbage and waste are reduced and no pollution is created to the air. Hard stuff from the organic waste is ground into small pieces without damage to the blades.

Reflective luminescent markings on a road or sign surface are formed by applying onto the surface a base material which is liquid in an initial state for application and sets or cures to form a solid layer after application where the base material contains a fine/medium filler material of glass ground from recycled materials in a rotary mill. Coarse material from the grinder is separated out and supplied as a separate material to be applied onto the surface of the layer of base material and fine ground glass. The base material is connected or impregnated with a luminescent material such as photo luminescent 2 4 6 trichlorophenyl in a binder such as polyurea.

The system and method requiring a diverter plate for an in-line mill. The plate for use with the in-line mill includes an aperture for passage of particulate laden fluid therethrough and a plurality of tabs such that the fluid and the particulate entrained thereon is deflected at a variety of axial angles. The diverter plate thus provides a reliable method such that the milling process and component wear resistance is made more efficient thereby.

A pulverizer may have such features as a drum having a top and bottom, a rotating shaft extending vertically in the drum having radially extending arms that create flow currents within the pulverizer to size reduce a material, and a dust collection system coupled to the outlet for extracting air and dust from the size reduced material. The pulverizer may have an ability to detect wrapping as well as possibly deter wrapping. A processor may also adjust the speed of rotation of the arms within the pulverizer and/or the speed of feed of input for various considerations. In fact the rotation direction may be reversed for at least brief periods of time in an effort to remove wrapped material. Vibration may also be sensed and efforts to prevent damage may be instigated by a processor.

An apparatus for comminuting material includes features that enable a user to alter or adjust operating parameters to optimally comminute a wide variety of materials. The apparatus includes wedges and vane tips that are removable and interchangeable with other wedges and vane tips to alter the zones of varying pressure, pressure differentials, shock waves, expansion fans, or other types of interference waves formed during operation. Temperature control systems and heat exchangers are used to independently control temperatures at different regions of the apparatus so that a user can control processing temperatures, which may vary depending on the material being processed. Corresponding methods of use are also provided.
