PRETREATMENT APPARATUS FOR REMOVING PITH FROM CORNSTALK, PULP MANUFACTURING METHOD USING CORNSTALK, AND PAPER MANUFACTURING METHOD USING CORNSTALK PULP

摘要

A pretreatment apparatus for removing pith from cornstalks and separating husks therefrom includes a casing that receives cornstalks in a free-fall manner through an upper side thereof and allows the corn stalks to be discharged through a lower side thereof, and a rotor inserted into the casing and rotating inside the casing to hit cornstalk chips. The rotor includes a shaft inserted into the casing to be rotated by external force, a cover member holding the shaft so as to allow rotation of the shaft therein and connected to the entirety or part of an open upper side of the casing, and a hitting unit formed on a circumference of the shaft and hitting the corn stalks input into the casing.
