VERFAHREN UND VORRICHTUNG ZUR HERSTELLUNG EINES BODENVERBESSERUNGSMITTELS UND DIESES BODENVERBESSERUNGSMITTEL

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for producing a soil improvment material. According to the invention such a material is produced by the steps of mixing wood fiber slurries from paper mills and fly ash from fossil fuel power and heating plants and of further treating the material to obtain a packetable product. The wood fiber slurry is treated to become an almost gruel-like slurry and is pressed through a sieve belt press (4) to become considerably dewatered, down to a water content of about 20 %, after which the slurry is pre-mixed with fly ash, after which the main mixing is carried out to obtain homogenous lump-like particles, which are subjected to a size reduction process through screening or the product after the main mixing and a possible size reduction process is pelletized. The invention also relates to an apparatus (1) designed to carry out the method as well as a soil improvement material obtained according to the method and by means of the apparatus respectively.
