Abstract (en)

A device (10) for the separation of fibres from waste material in fibre bearing plants, comprising a plurality of processing members (13A, 13B, 13C) mounted for rotation within an enclosure (1), the enclosure (1) comprising an inlet (11) for material to be processed, an outlet (12) for fibres and a plurality of apertures (24) to allow the egress of waste material. The device is arranged, in use, to receive material at the inlet (11) to undergo a first processing operation by a first plurality of the processing members (13A). The first plurality of processing members (13A) is arranged along a first axis of rotation (14A), and is arranged to perform a first stage of separation of fibre from waste, and to transfer fibres in a process direction for processing by at least a second plurality of the processing members (13B). <IMAGE>
