Abstract
An improved method and apparatus for treating fibrous material are shown. A concurrent stream of air and fibrous material are spewed into an empty chamber large enough to allow the fibrous material to fall out of the conveying air into a collecting duct where the two components are removed in a concurrent stream having the normal conveying velocity. An evase section at the entrance of the chamber promotes the slowing of the seed cotton, allowing it to come to a state of agitation with respect to the air in the chamber before being drawn out the chamber exit where it is again accelerated with the outgoing stream of air.
