Abstract

An apparatus for separating materials of different flowability that are mixed together has a frame structure; a hollow drum driven in a rotational direction and having a perforated peripheral surface and an open end face; a continuous press belt pressed from outside onto the peripheral surface when wrapped around part of the circumference of the drum; a product intake wedge formed by the belt and drum, for conducting a product stream into the apparatus between the drum and belt; and a device for discharging separated product, which has been pressed from the outside through the perforated peripheral surface into the hollow chamber, from the end face. The discharging device includes a scraping element in an upper region of the drum, and includes at least one scraping element section, which has a tilt angle of more than 90° to a tangential plane of the peripheral surface against the direction of rotation.
