Abstract
An impact reactor for comminuting composite materials having a rotor with impact elements is arranged in a cylindrical casing. An end face of the impact reactor, remote from the rotor, is closed by a cover. A suction opening is assigned to the cover and a classifying device is assigned to the suction opening. Such an impact reactor may be used to process, by way of example, accumulator batteries, mineral wool and raw material.
Claims18
A method of processing accumulator batteries in an impact reactor, comprising:
- providing an impact reactor having a cylindrical casing with a first end and a second end, a rotor provided with impact elements positioned proximate the first end, and a cover closing the second end facing away from the rotor;
- providing a suction opening in the cover;
- positioning a classifying device in communication with the suction opening;
- feeding accumulator batteries into the impact reactor;
- comminuting the accumulator batteries in the impact reactor by striking the accumulator batteries with the impact elements of the rotor;
- removing components of the accumulator batteries from the impact reactor via the suction opening.
