摘要

Material separation comprises feeding the material containing the component to be separated into one side of a container (10), allowing it to flow through the container under gravity, and feeding a washing fluid through the container in the opposite direction to force out the component to be separated. Material separation comprises feeding the material containing the component to be separated into one side of a container (10), allowing it to flow through the container under gravity, and feeding a washing fluid through the container in the opposite direction to force out the component to be separated. The material mixture is supplied continuously and is directed by guide elements (12) which are arranged at an angle to the direction of movement. The fluid is supplied over the region between the guide elements and the material stream, and an area is formed where the material to be separated is compressed.
