The invention relates to the method and device for milling and separation into fractions of solids and granular materials in a controlled airflow. The device for milling and separation of solids and granular materials consists of a round milling chamber with a system of pneumatic separation comprising of a vertical cylindrical body that has an uploading slot for solids and granular materials and unloading channels for the milled products of light, medium and coarse fractions. A rotating disc and a conical divider are located inside the vertical cylindrical body. The rotating disc has removable hammers and removable blades of different sizes and configurations. The system of pneumatic separation consists of a milling chamber, an air slugcatcher, channels for the milled material, and a chamber of higher pressure. Such a construction of the device allows to obtain products of the highest quality, and to improve the separation by dividing the material into three fractions: light, medium and coarse.

Embodiments of the present invention pertain to a plant trimming machine. Plants are placed in a tumbler. As the tumbler rotates, leaves are sucked through the tumbler by a vacuum assembly and cut by at least one rotatable blade adjacent to the tumbler. The tumbler and blade are housed in separate cartridges so that they can be easily removed and inserted. Thereby, it is relatively easy to clean and replace a tumbler or blade with minimal downtime to the machine.

An apparatus and process mechanically remove hydrocarbons and other contaminants from solids through high energy slurry impact with a stationary plate or through high energy slurry impact of two or more slurry streams. In addition to the mechanical process, a gas additive, such as CO.sub.2, in solid, liquid or gas form, can be introduced into the slurry stream. The presence of gas additive can aid in the liberation of the contaminant. The process can increase efficiencies, reduce costs and improve thoroughness of contaminate cleaning in conjunction with aqueous pressure and sheer energy.

A turret includes a generally frusto-conical shaped body and a plurality of static straightening vanes arranged interior to the body, the vanes dividing the body into a plurality of substantially equal sections. The vanes are configured to straighten a swirling flow of solid particles as they enter the body, and to divide the swirling flow into a plurality of straightened flows that are communicated to a plurality of coal outlet pipes.

The present invention discloses a same-cavity integrated vertical high-speed multistage superfine pulverizing device and method for walnut shells. The same-cavity integrated vertical high-speed multistage superfine pulverizing device for walnut shells includes a double-channel sliding type feeding device and a same-cavity integrated vertical pulverizing device. The same-cavity integrated vertical pulverizing device includes a material lifting disc and a same-cavity integrated vertical pulverizing barrel. A first-stage coarse crushing region, a second-stage fine crushing region, a third-stage pneumatic impact micro pulverizing region and a fourth-stage airflow mill superfine pulverizing region are disposed in the same-cavity integrated vertical pulverizing barrel. Walnut shells falling through the double-channel sliding type feeding device are uniformly lifted by the material lifting disc to a wedge-shaped gap of the first-stage coarse crushing region to be coarsely crushed, and coarsely crushed materials are finely crushed by the second-stage fine crushing region through a two-stage wedge-shaped direct-through gradually reducing gap. The third-stage pneumatic impact micro pulverizing region performs high-speed collision on finely crushed walnut shell particles, and walnut shell fine particles are carried by a high-speed airflow and are collided and violently rubbed to be pulverized. The microparticle grading is realized by the fourth-stage airflow mill superfine pulverizing region by using arc-shaped blades, and microparticles conforming to a particle size condition are attracted out through negative pressure attraction.
