Abstract

Apparatus for treating of old printed papers includes a recycling conduit for the thickening waters of a long fiber fraction upstream of the fractionation apparatus to the pulping and pre-purification apparatus, and a reservoir for the recovery of thickening waters of a short fiber fraction and of thickening/washing waters of the long fiber fraction. This reservoir is fed with clean water for starting the installation and is connected with a second reservoir such that overflow from the first reservoir empties into the second reservoir.
