Abstract

The invention relates to disc reactors with a large free usable volume which are kinematically self-cleaning, consisting of two or more parallel counterrotating shafts, on which toothed discs with scrapers, which are distributed over their circumference, are disposed, and a surrounding housing. The toothed discs are arranged perpendicularly to the axes of rotation in planes which are echeloned one behind the other such that they mesh with one another.
