Abstract
A process for the comminution, in particular defibrillation, and reaction of fibrous materials having a high dry solids content with the addition of a circulating medium, preferably a carrier gas and/or reaction agent, as well as optionally of chemicals. The invention is mainly characterized in that the circulating medium is recycled after leaving the comminuting device, by changing its temperature, and is then recycled to the comminuting device. Another embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the fibrous materials and liquid reaction agent are separated from the carrier gas and reaction agent vapors, which are then recycled back to comminuting device. A plant for carrying out this process is mainly characterized in that the comminuting device and route for recycling and treatment of the circulating medium form a closed system.
