Method and device for separating composite materials and mixtures, in particular solid-material mixtures and slags

A device for carrying out a method for separating composite materials and mixtures, wherein the device (1) comprises

• a drive unit (21) for driving a rotor element (32) which is connected to a bearing/shaft unit (22) having an axis of rotation which is hereinafter referred to as the X-axis and which is parallel to the force of gravity, the rotor element (32) being part of a rotor unit (31), the rotor element (32) itself having at least one rotor tool (33) and each rotor tool (33) having at least one rotor tool component (34), the rotor element (32) being surrounded by a stator element (42), which is part of a stator unit (41),
• the stator element (42) itself having at least one stator tool (43) and each stator tool (43) having at least one stator tool component (44), the rotor element (32) and the stator element (42) being cylindrical and the device additionally comprising a material inlet (11) for supplying the composite material and the mixture above the rotor unit and the stator unit (31, 41) and a material outlet (12) for discharging a separated material below the rotor unit and the stator unit (31, 41),
• wherein the at least one rotor tool (33) and the at least one rotor tool component (34) are oriented in a direction of the X-axis, hereinafter referred to as the X-direction, the X-direction and a tangential direction of the stator element (42) together defining a plane A at a position of the at least one stator tool component (44), and the X-direction and a radial direction of the stator element (42) together defining a plane B at the position of the at least one stator tool component (44), the at least one stator tool component (44) being adjustable relative to the X-direction both in plane A and in plane B, and
• wherein an angle α describes an orientation of the at least one stator tool component (44) in plane A relative to the X-direction, and wherein the at least one stator tool component (44) is adjustable from an angle α of −45° to an angle α of +45°, and wherein an angle β describes an orientation of the at least one stator tool component (44) in plane B relative to the X-direction, and the at least one stator tool component (44) is adjustable from an angle β of −10° to an angle β of +10°.
