Washing and disintegrating means serve to wash and disintegrate the waste material and to continuously deliver the resulting washed and disintegrated material. A first conveyor serves to receive said washed and disintegrated material from said washing and disintegrating means and to remove water from said washing and disintegrating means and to remove water from said material. A dirt separator serves to receive said washed and disintegrated material from said first conveyor and to remove dirt from said washed and disintegrated material and to deliver the resulting cleaned material. A second conveyor serves to receive said cleaned material from said dirt separator and to remove water from said cleaned material. A water collector serves to receive water removed by said second conveyor. A return conduit serves to deliver water from said water collector to said dirt separator. Continuously operable drying means serve to receive said cleaned material from said second conveyor and to dry said cleaned material and to continuously deliver the resulting dried material. A buffer serves to receive said dried material from said drying means and to intermittently deliver said dried material. Intermittently operable agglomerating means serve to receive said intermittently delivered dried material from said buffer and to transform said dried material into an agglomerate.
