In a low-yield(i. e., bleachable grade) chemical pulping operation, knots are generally defined as the fraction of pulp that is retained on a 3/8" perforated plate... Two types of knotters are in use. The older, vibrating screen knotters do an efficient job of knot separation, but the open-type design generates foam and liquor spatter, and needs operator attention. Foam in the stock impairs the efficiency of the subsequent washing operation and can cause other problems. The vibratory knotter is rapidly being superseded by the totally enclosed pressure screen knotter. 1, record 3, English, - vibrating%20screen%20knotter

Les plus anciens, les classeurs vibrants, permettent une séparation efficace des nœuds, mais le type d'appareil non recouvert engendre la formation de mousse et provoque des éclaboussures de liqueur. La présence de mousse dans la pâte diminue considérablement le rendement du lavage et peut engendrer de graves problèmes d'exploitation. Aussi le classeur vibrant est-il rapidement remplacé par un classeur sous pression. 1, record 3, French, - classeur%20vibrant

In a low-yield(i. e., bleachable grade) chemical pulping operation, knots are generally defined as the fraction of pulp that is retained on a 3/8" perforated plate... The pressure screen knotter... consists of a totally enclosed cylindrical, perforated screen through which accepted stock flows. A rotating foil produces a series of pressure and vacuum pulses to keep the perforations clean. Knots are retained on the entrance side of the screen and are continuously discharged, along with some good fiber. The main drawback of the pressure knotter is the requirement for secondary screening of the reject stream to return good fiber back to the system. 1, record 4, English, - pressure%20screen%20knotter

[...] On utilise actuellement deux grands types de trieurs de nœuds [...] le classeur vibrant [...] Le classeur sous pression consiste en un cylindre complètement fermé et un tamis à travers duquel s'écoule la pâte acceptée. Une racle rotative produit une série de pulsations de vide et de pression contribuant à maintenir les orifices propres. Les nœuds sont retenus à l'entrée du classeur et évacués en continu en même temps qu'une certaine quantité de fibres acceptables. Ce type de classeur présente donc pour principal inconvénient de nécessiter une seconde étape de classage ayant pour objet la récupération des fibres en question. 1, record 4, French, - trieur%20de%20n%26oelig%3Buds%20sous%20pression
