Abstract:
A method for defibrating a fiber body includes: a supply step of supplying a liquid to a fiber body containing fibers; and a defibrating step of defibrating the fiber body to which the liquid is supplied, and in the supply step, the liquid is supplied to the fiber body so that a rate in tensile strength of the fiber body immediately before defibrated in the defibrating step to the fiber body before the liquid is supplied thereto is 60.0% or less.
Abstract:
A waste paper recycling apparatus includes a liquid ejection device which receives a first liquid and a second liquid different from the first liquid; a receiving portion receiving a selection operation which selects one of the first liquid and the second liquid which is adhered to a predetermined region of a sheet containing fibers formed from waste paper; and a control portion which controls the liquid ejection device to adhere the liquid selected by the selection operation to the predetermined region. In the waste paper recycling apparatus, the first liquid contains a binder which binds fibers together, and the second liquid contains a pigment and a binder which binds fibers together.
