Device and method for the joint feeding of plastic particles and a liquid into a purification device

A device for jointly delivering plastic particles and a liquid to a cleaning device to remove impurities from the plastic particles, the device comprising:

• a delivery funnel comprising an inlet and an outlet, wherein the inlet is configured to connect to a supply for the plastic particles, and the outlet is configured to connect to the cleaning device;
• and
• at least one delivery nozzle positioned on the delivery funnel that is configured to connect to a liquid supply, the at least one delivery nozzle is configured to discharge at least one liquid jet into the delivery funnel, wherein a position of the at least one delivery nozzle promotes mixing of the supplied plastic particles and the liquid in the delivery funnel.
