Defect separation from dry pulp

摘要

Defects are removed from dry pulp by providing dry pulp having less than 10% by total weight of water therein. The location of individual defect material within the dry pulp is sensed. The located defect material is relatively positioned with respect to a defect removal system. Using the sensed location of defect material with respect to the defect removal system, the defect material is removed with the defect removal system from the dry pulp.
