Apparatus for disintegrating solids resulting from partial hydrolysis of cellulosic or lignocellulosic material comprising a cylindrical chamber having a perforated mid portion and a plurality of hammer elements supported for rotation within and coaxially to the chamber with their tips close to the perforated mid portion of the chamber. This disintegrator may be connected to the lower end of a hydrolyzer to receive the product of hydrolysis from such chamber.

In combination a hydrolyzer for partial hydrolysis of lignocellulosis material and a disintegrator, said hydrolyzer being vertical and having an inlet at its upper end and an outlet at its lower end and having side walls, said disintegrator being vertical, having an open upper end and a closed lower end and having side walls, said disintegrator being arranged in vertical alignment with the lower end of the hydrolyzer and forming therewith a continuous passage to cause continuous, vertical flow of particles of hydrolyzed solids from the hydrolyzer into the disintegrator, the disintegrator comprising a cylinder having between its ends a perforated wall portion, and disintegrating means rotatable within the cylinder about the axis of the cylinder in close proximity to the perforated wall portion of the cylinder, drive means for said disintegrating means and an outlet to receive slurry expelled from the cylinder through the perforated portion thereof, there being also baffle members in the form of bars at the junction of the hydrolyzer and the disintegrator which serve to prevent vortex formation and commingling of material in the disintegrator with material in the hydrolyzer, said bars extending substantially vertically and extending into both the hydrolyzer and the disintegrator and adjacent to the side walls of both the hydrolyzer and the disintegrator.
