Abstract

The disclosure relates to an installation for processing and/or using process liquid, comprising at least one first installation section which comprises at least one heat exchanger for heating the process liquid. The heated process liquid can be guided directly or indirectly to a second installation section for processing and/or use. The invention is directed to the problem of providing an installation by means of which the wear and tear of comminution mechanisms, in particular for frozen, cold or tough biomass, can be reduced in a cost-effective and environmentally friendly manner. The installation is characterized in that the second installation section comprises at least one washing, soaking and/or thawing booth device for treating biomass using the warm process liquid.
