The subject of the present invention is a method for processing electrical and electronic components in order to recover valuable materials, such as the metals contained in printed circuit boards. According to this method, the electrical and electronic components are pre-shredded mechanically and then mixed with a liquid before they undergo wet milling (5).

An apparatus for removing the husk from grain, in particular as a laboratory or small-scale grain kernel peeler, and for producing dehusked grain seeds, has a peeler including a first disk and a second disk movable relative to the first disk and drivable about a vertical axis. The disks enclose, between main faces made of a temperature-stable and elastic material, a working space fillable with grain from the side opposite the second disk through a central first disk filling opening. By rotating the second disk, the kernel and husk can be separated by a radial movement along the disks so that kernel and husk leave the peeler on its outer circumference via an outlet which opens via a chute into a collecting bin, the chute having a lateral air inlet supplied with an air stream so that the husks leave the chute laterally in front of the collecting bin.

The present invention provides systems and methods for production using manual labor. The present invention involves the transition of energies to perform labor. The transition involves manual labor energy turning into kinetic energy and further transition of the kinetic energy into mechanical or electrical energy used for performing designated labor.

An improved grinding mill that utilizes mill stones that minimizing the mechanical processes required to regulating the mill stones and allow an user to gain quick and easy access to the mill stones by removing a hopper. In addition, to provide a base frame for the mill that secures both mechanical and electrical parts including the mill housing to reduce manufacture and repair time.

A device for processing high-consistency fibrous material has a housing. First and second treatment tools in the housing are fastened to a base plate, have a rotationally symmetrical form, are arranged coaxially to each other, rotate relative to one another about a common axis and delimit a treatment gap through which the fibrous material radially flows. The gap width of the gap is varied by axially shifting at least one base plate of a treatment tool. In order to determine the minimum distance between the base plates, the oscillations are detected on the device and the distance between the base plates rotating relative to one another is reduced until the frequency and/or the amplitude and/or the change in frequency and/or the change in amplitude of the oscillations exceeds a limit value. The distance when the limit value is exceeded is determined as the minimum distance.

The shear gap between a rotor and a stator in a colloid mill is adjusted by translating the stator with respect to the rotor, preferably by moving the stator along a helical path about the rotor, thereby moving the stator's surface closer to or further from the rotor's surface (and altering the shear gap therebetween). Helical slots are provided in the casing about the stator, with members extending from the stator through the slots, whereby the members can be grasped and rotated about the casing to move the stator. Channels allowing circulation of buffer fluid are provided about the stator and rotor to deter ingress of the fluid being processed into junctures between components of the colloid mill.
