Abstract: A comminuting device includes a comminuting chamber which has a bottom wall and a circumferential wall which extends upwards from the bottom wall. The device also includes a rotatably driven drive shaft which extends essentially orthogonal to the bottom wall, and at least one comminuting element which is disposed next to the bottom wall. This at least one comminuting element can be made to perform a rotary movement about the drive shaft by the drive shaft. A plurality of additional comminuting elements which can be made to perform a rotary or revolving movement about the drive shaft (22) by means of the drive shaft are arranged above the at least one comminuting element comminuting element disposed next to the bottom wall.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for delignifying chemical pulp by means of oxygen, in which an aqueous slurry of chemical pulp is formed, then mixed with a caustic agent, followed by contact with a delignifying fluid. Water is drained off the slurry without reduction of pressure and while maintaining temperature following which the resulting slurry is maintained under these temperature and pressure conditions for a discrete period of time. The thus-obtained treated slurry is then washed.
