Abstract: The invention relates to a device for processing composite materials containing fibers, in particular packaging materials containing fibers and in particular used beverage packagings. Said device comprises a double container, which comprises: an inner drum-like container having a hollow cylindrical drum body, which is closed by means of an end bottom at one of two end faces of the drum body and is open at an opposite end face of the drum body, wherein the drum body has screen holes at least on a section of the circumferential surface of the drum body, and wherein at least one baffle is provided at least on a section of the circumferential surface of the drum body and/or on the end bottom, and an outer container, which at least partially surrounds the drum body of the inner, drum-like container, such that an intermediate space is formed between the outer surface of the inner, drum-like container and the inner surface of the outer container, wherein the double container can be pivoted in the vertical plane.

Abstract: In a method for the carrying out of a flotation, bleach and/or dispersion process serving for the manufacture of fiber or paper while using one or more method stages in which process steps defined by pre-settable chemical and physical routines are carried out and process optimizations are made in dependence on measured values and characteristic values formed therefrom, optionally while using state models, at least the measured values of at least one method stage, which relevantly affect the target values of the respective end product of the method, are detected online and/or the characteristic values determined from the measured values of at least one method stage are evaluated online and used directly or indirectly for the control or optimization of at least one process, with characteristic values being formed in dependence on the starting materials or raw materials and/or on the chemicals, auxiliary materials, energies and/or materials and emissions to be disposed of, which are added in at least one method
