Title: Apparatus and process for the heat treatment of lignocellulosic material
Inventor: UNTERNAHRER ROLAND
IPC: F26B21/02
Filed: 1997-11-06
Abstract: The invention concerns an apparatus for the heat treatment of lignocellulosic material, and comprises a chamberfor the treatment of the material, at least one combustion chamber (30) with at least one burner (31) functioning in a reducing atmosphere, stirring mechanisms (26, 26') to ensure the circulation of gases in the treatment chamber so that a part of the gases originating from the chamber circulate across the combustion chamber (30).
