Abstract
A separating device for elongate solid pieces includes a vibrating base with longitudinal grooves having a depth which decreases in a conveying direction, to allow efficient separation of elongate solid pieces, in particular of short pieces of wire, and to allow the separating device to operate continuously. The longitudinal grooves are adjoined by elongate, e.g. V-shaped, screen openings for separating the elongate solid pieces. Wide solid pieces can slide over the screen openings. The separating device is suitable in particular for separating small pieces of wire out of pyrolysis residue from a pyrolysis plant.
