  • Patent number: 11795614
    Abstract: An apparatus for dispersing or refining organic material includes a rotor shaft extending along a rotation axis, a rotor to be driven to rotate by the rotation axis, and a housing arranged around the rotor shaft and the rotor, the housing having an inlet for receiving the organic material and an outer wall. The housing has a stator disc, and the rotor has a rotor disc, each disc having teeth on a surface that is turned toward the other disc. After organic material has been dispersed by the teeth, the organic material is fed into a dilution zone where the organic material is mixed with dilution liquid introduced through a number of dilution inlets before the mix is fed out of the apparatus via an outlet arranged in the outer wall. The dilution inlets are angled in relation to the radial of the rotation axis, in a plane perpendicular to the rotation axis.
