An elongated planar or profiled component for a manufacturing machine of a fibrous cellulosic web, such as paper, board or tissue web, is at least partially formed from a composite material having a continuous polymer matrix, and reinforcing inorganic fibers embedded in the continuous polymer matrix. The continuous polymer matrix is biodegradable and the reinforcing inorganic fibers are biodegradable glass fibers. A method is disclosed for recycling elongated planar and/or profiled components used for manufacture of a fibrous web.

A scraper bar is used in a plant for producing a paper web with a sieve belt. The sieve belt is movable over the scraper bar transversely with respect to the longitudinal extent of the scraper bar. The scraper bar has wearing elements which face toward the sieve belt, are mounted on a supporting bar and are arranged one after the other in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the scraper bar. The supporting bar has supporting bar elements which are arranged one after the other in the longitudinal extent and which are preferably connected to one another and on which the wearing elements are fastened.

A dewatering device has a dewatering box and a plurality of dewatering strips. A contour of at least one dewatering strip changes over its length. There is also described a machine for the production of a fibrous web, such as a paper, cardboard or tissue web, with a dewatering device of this kind, and to the use of the latter in a machine of this kind.

A device dewaters a wet-laid non-woven web formed from a fibrous suspension. The device has a multiplicity of dewatering strips which are disposed so as to be mutually spaced apart. Mutually neighboring dewatering strips conjointly delimit a dewatering gap for discharging liquid from the fibrous suspensions. The device further has at least three format slides which along the longitudinal direction of the respective dewatering gap are disposed or disposable so as to be distributed relative to one another and which partially obscure the dewatering gap in such a manner that any discharging of the liquid by way of the obscured part of the dewatering gap is prevented.

A drainage foil for use in an installation for producing a paper web with a fabric belt, which can be moved over a multiplicity of drainage foils oriented transversely to a direction of movement. A surface of the drainage foil is formed with a defined profiling, which has elevations and/or depressions. The vertical extent of the profiling is at least 0.1 mm.

A capillary dewatering apparatus, including a framework with a plurality of apertures, and a flexible member disposed around an exterior surface of the framework, in which an inner surface of the flexible member is in contact with at least a portion of the exterior surface of the framework and in which the flexible member and the framework are not bonded. Also disclosed is a capillary dewatering process using the corresponding apparatus.
