1. A monitoring device of a conveying system for comminuted materials, having at least one measuring apparatus with which at least one substance component in a first comminuted material and a second comminuted material of the comminuted materials can be detected, wherein
at least one monitoring region covers at least a section of a conveying path of the conveying system, and in which region a first content of the at least one substance component in the first comminuted material and a second content of the at least one substance component in the second comminuted material can be determined by the at least one measuring apparatus during the conveyance of the comminuted materials,
at least one control and processing device configured to stop the conveying system based on information from the at least one measuring apparatus,
at least one rejection apparatus is arranged downstream of the at least one monitoring region in a direction of conveyance of the comminuted materials on the conveying path, the at least one rejection apparatus being configured to reject the first comminuted material when the first content of the at least one substance component determined by the at least one measuring apparatus exceeds a predetermined threshold value, and
a material press is arranged downstream of the at least one rejection apparatus in the direction of conveyance of the comminuted materials on the conveying path, the material press being configured to cause the second comminuted material to be pressed when the second content of the at least one substance component determined by the at least one measuring apparatus is less than the predetermined threshold value.
