Abstract
The invention relates to a method for reducing bitumen odors by admixing active agents and a diluting agent to liquid bitumen, whereby certain aldehydes and alcohols and in addition, if applicable, terpenes, ketones, and carbonic acid esters are used as active agents.
Description
. = CA 02695829 2010-02-08 Method for reducing bitumen odors The invention relates to a method for reducing bitumen odors by admixing active agents.
Bitumen is a highly-viscous liquid or a solid that consists of hydrocarbons and derivatives thereof. It is soluble in trichloroethylene and softens at temperatures above 100 C and becomes thin fluid above approximately 150 C. Bitumen is used on an industrial scale, e.g., as a road topping, whereby a mixture of bitumen and major amounts of stones is applied; moreover, it is used as insulating layer against the penetration of water and moisture into buildings, and for the production of sealing sheeting and tar paper.
In all said applications, bitumen is processed in liquefied form above approximately 140 C. At these temperatures, most of the volatile substances present in bitumen evaporate, e.g. sulfur and nitrogen compounds that may lead to foul odors.
US-A 5,271,767 describes an odor-free asphalt composition, in which 0.5 to 1 wt.-% of a mixture of to 15 wt.-% limonene, 85 to 90 wt.-% of a vegetable oil, and approximately 2 wt.-% of a silicone oil are admixed into liquid asphalt (meaning bitumen).
In this context, relatively large amounts of active agents have to be used.
EP-A 1 235 768 describes a composition for odor suppression for hydrocarbons, e.g. asphalt and bitumen, consisting of an aldehyde or ketone and 10 to 90 wt.-%
of a carbonic acid alkyl ester. The composition in the example contains a total of 31 wt.-% ester and 60 wt.-% benzaldehyde. Since benzaldehyde is detrimental to _

In this context, relatively large amounts of active agents have to be used.
EP-A 1 235 768 describes a composition for odor suppression for hydrocarbons, e.g. asphalt and bitumen, consisting of an aldehyde or ketone and 10 to 90 wt.-%
of a carbonic acid alkyl ester. The composition in the example contains a total of 31 wt.-% ester and 60 wt.-% benzaldehyde. Since benzaldehyde is detrimental to _
2 health (see material safety data sheet of Merck of 31 March 2004), this composition is not harmless.
WO 2004/099352 describes additives for odor reduction, e.g. for liquid asphalt cement (meaning bitumen), preferably containing 35 to 45 vol.- /0 limonene, 25 to 35 yol.-% pine extract or pine oil, 1 to 5 vol.-% Pinus sylvestris oil,
WO 2004/099352 describes additives for odor reduction, e.g. for liquid asphalt cement (meaning bitumen), preferably containing 35 to 45 vol.- /0 limonene, 25 to 35 yol.-% pine extract or pine oil, 1 to 5 vol.-% Pinus sylvestris oil,
3 to 8 vol.-% anise seed oil, and 20 to 25 vol.- /0 of other oils.
Said composition can be diluted with a carrier oil, e.g. a mineral oil, a vegetable oil or a fatty acid alkyl ester. However, it showed that said composition is not optimal for reducing bitumen odors, too.
EP-A 1 772 158 describes a method for reducing foul-smelling substances in tank containers for bitumen, whereby active agents are guided into the gas space over the liquid level together with an inert gas. The active agents can be, e.g., longer-chain aldehydes, ketones, esters or alcohols, e.g. C7 to 012 aldehydes or natural oily essences such as resin oils, and, moreover, perfume-like substances such as vanillin, menthol or alpha-pinene. More detailed specifications concerning the composition of the active agents are not provided therein.
It was therefore the object of the invention to provide a method for reducing bitumen odors, in which relatively small amounts of active agents that are non-objectionable in terms of health are used.
This object is met by the mixture of active agents according to claim 1. It is self-evident that said agents as such should not be foul-smelling, i.e. the selected substances should not bear any, e.g., mercaptan or amino groups.
According to the present invention, the mixture of active agents is not admixed into the gas space, but rather directly into the liquid bitumen which results in higher efficiency.
In the context of the present invention common commercial bitumen is used.
Said bitumen might contain residues from crude oil distillation as well as residues that were obtained by means of a cracking process. Naturally occurring bitumen or mixtures of various types of bitumen may be used as well. Examples of bitumen of this type include straight-run asphaltic bitumen, precipitation bitumen, e. g.
propane bitumen, oxidized bitumen, naphthene-base bitumen and mixtures thereof. Well-suited bitumen can also be produced by mixing with a naphthene-base or paraffin base flux oil or a vegetable oil. It can just as well contain a polymer such that a polymer-modified bitumen is generated. Well-suited polymers include thermoplastic elastomers or plastomers, such as, e.g. styrene block copolymers and/or olefin copolymers such as ethylene/vinylacetate copolymer.
The aldehyde of component A is selected from Al. alpha-hexyl cinnamaldehyde (jasmonal H), A2. 2-(4-tert.-butylbenzyl)propionaldehyde (Lilial), and A3. 2-benzylidene heptanal (jasminal) or mixtures thereof. In a particularly preferred embodiment, component A
contains all three of the aldehydes specified above.
The other optional aldehydes of component B are preferably selected from:
B1. 3-(4-iso-propylphenyI)-2-methylpropanal (cyclamaldehyde), particularly in amounts of from 2 to 12 wt.-%, and B2. 2-methylundecanal, particularly in amounts of from 2 to 8 wt.-%
B3. 2-methyl-3-(3,4-methylene-dioxyphenyl)propanal (helional), particularly in amounts of from 0.5 to 5 wt.-%

The mixture preferably contains 5 to 50, in particular 10 to 40, wt.-% active agents and 95 to 50, in particular 90 to 60, wt.-% diluting agent.
Preferred diluting agents include mineral oils, i.e. hydrocarbon middle distillates, such as, e.g. CATENEXTm made by Shell, as well as vegetable oils such as sunflower oil which consists mainly of linoleic acid. A mixture of CATENEXTm and sunflower oil that is characterized by a particularly high flash point, which reduces the risk of ignition, has also proven to be useful.
Preferably the mixture of active agents and diluting agent is admixed to the liquid bitumen in amounts of from 10 to 200 ppm, in particular from 20 to 180 ppm, and especially in amounts of from 50 to 150 ppm. This is preferably effected at temperatures above 140 C, in particular at temperatures between 150 and 250 C.
Generally, the mixture can be introduced directly into the liquid bitumen that is present in a tank container or a truck. However, since liquid bitumen is usually delivered by truck and filled into the tank container through a hose or preferably a pipe, it is advantageous to introduce the mixture from a reservoir container via a

The optional terpenes of component D are preferably selected from Dl. limonene having a boiling point of 176 C, particularly in amounts of from 0.5 to 5 wt.-%, and D2. alpha-pinene having a boiling point of 156 C, particularly in amounts of from 0,5 to 5 wt.-%
or mixtures thereof. In a particularly preferred embodiment, component D

Well-suited as carbonic acid esters of optional component F are e.g.:

Preferably a mixture of the active agents and a diluting agent is admixed to the liquid bitumen. Said diluting agent simultaneously acts as mixing mediator during the mixing of the individual components.
The mixture preferably contains 5 to 50, in particular 10 to 40, wt.-% active agents and 95 to 50, in particular 90 to 60, wt.-% diluting agent.

This is preferably effected at temperatures above 140 C, in particular at temperatures between 150 and 250 C.
Generally, the mixture can be introduced directly into the liquid bitumen that is present in a tank container or a truck. However, since liquid bitumen is usually delivered by truck and filled into the tank container through a hose or preferably a pipe, it is advantageous to introduce the mixture from a reservoir container via a
6 dosing pump through a side line into the pipe. In this context, the pipe can be split into two channels at one site in the form of a bypass whereby the main amount of the liquid bitumen flows into the channel with the larger diameter, whereas the mixture of active agents and diluting agent is introduced into the narrower bypass channel. This simplifies the dosing and the mixture is better homogenized.
This dosing is shown schematically in the drawing. While 1 denotes the bitumen tank, 2 is the truck from which the bitumen is transferred to the tank, 3 is the reservoir container for the mixture containing the active agents, and 4 is the bypass.
It is assumed that the active agents specified above, in particular the aldehydes, undergo a chemical reaction with the foul-smelling substances, e.g. with mercaptans and amines, and thus remove and/or neutralize them.
Using the method according to the invention, the foul smell during the processing of liquid bitumen can be reduced by 60 to 90%, in some cases even by more than 90%, which can be detected by means of olfactory measurement.
Example 1 A mixture of active agents is produced from:
22.9 parts by weight alpha-hexylcinnamaldehyde 19.1 parts by weight 2-benzylidene heptanal 9.8 parts by weight 2-(4-tert.-butylbenzyl)propionaldehyde 16.5 parts by weight linalol
