Abstract

A process is provided for the removal from paper pulp of impurities, the pulp being contained in a pulping machine. Some of the pulp is periodically transferred into an enclosed chamber annexed to the pulping machine, the chamber having a volume which is small compared to the volume of the pulping machine. The pulp in the chamber is stirred and separated by a rotor, and fibre suspension is returned to the pulping machine, dilution water being introduced into this chamber. The chamber is emptied and impurities thereafter discharged.
