Online continuous defoaming treatment method for white water of papermaking system
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of fine chemical engineering, and particularly relates to an online defoaming treatment technology for an emulsion type fatty alcohol defoaming agent.
Background
In the pulping and papermaking process, the production efficiency and the product quality are seriously influenced by the existence of foam. Therefore, defoaming and suds suppressors are a necessity for the pulping process. In most cases, the most effective way to control foam is to add chemical aids that prevent or eliminate foam formation, such as: low surface tension oils, hydrophobic particles, various antifoaming/suds suppressors. At present, the higher fatty alcohol defoamer is widely applied to all paper making sections due to the excellent performance of the defoamer. However, as environmental requirements increase, the white water circulation of papermaking systems becomes increasingly closed, resulting in the accumulation of large amounts of surface active substances, thereby forming foams that are more complex in structure and more difficult to break. Therefore, there is a need to develop higher performance defoamers to meet more complex requirements.
At present, the conventional defoaming agent is uniform emulsion particles, and the components are gradually complicated along with the accumulation of organic matters such as surfactants and the like in a closed-cycle papermaking white water system, and the defoaming effect is gradually weakened, so that the defoaming performance is required to be more stably and durably improved. In addition, the currently commonly used fatty alcohol defoaming agent is usually added directly according to the amount of white water, but because the defoaming agent, especially the emulsion type fatty alcohol defoaming agent, is sensitive to temperature and is easy to generate instability phenomenon to cause emulsion delamination and other problems when the temperature is too low or too high (lower than frost or higher than 40 ℃), the defoaming stability is further reduced.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the problems in the prior art, the invention aims to provide an online continuous defoaming treatment method for white water in a papermaking system, the obtained fatty alcohol defoaming agent contains fatty alcohols with different particle sizes, and an overflow dosing mode is adopted, so that the defoaming agent has the advantages of good dispersibility, high defoaming speed and lasting foam inhibition effect.
In order to solve the technical problems, the invention adopts the following technical scheme: an on-line continuous defoaming treatment method for white water in a papermaking system comprises the following steps:
step 1: pumping and filtering white water of a papermaking system by a filter pump, and sending the white water into a buffer tank, wherein the temperature of the white water of the system in the buffer tank is controlled to be 20-35 ℃;
step 2: after the white water of the system reaches a set liquid level height, putting 0.01-0.02% by volume of defoaming agent through a chemical adding pipe inserted into a buffer tank;
and step 3: and continuously starting the filter pump to send the white water into the buffer pool, simultaneously continuously sending the defoaming agent into the bottom of the buffer pool through a chemical feeding pipe inserted below the liquid level of the buffer pool, enabling the white water in the buffer pool to enter an overflow groove in an overflow mode, pumping the white water out of the overflow groove through the filter pump again, and circularly sending the white water to the subsequent steps for treatment, wherein a silk screen cover is arranged at the outlet end of the chemical feeding pipe.
Preferably, the defoaming agent is an emulsion type fatty alcohol defoaming agent.
Further, the emulsion type fatty alcohol defoaming agent is prepared by the following method:
(1) heating oil phases of paraffin, N20+, 68# white oil, glycerol tristearate and Tween 85 to 75-85 ℃ for melting, adding hot water of 80-95 ℃ for high-speed stirring and emulsifying to form a coarse emulsion A;
(2) homogenizing the coarse emulsion A by a colloid mill to control the particle size of an oil phase in the coarse emulsion A to be 8-12 mu m;
(3) heating oil phases of paraffin, N20+, glycerol tristearate and white carbon black to 75-85 ℃ for melting, adding hot water of 80-95 ℃ for high-speed stirring and emulsifying to form a coarse emulsion B;
(4) homogenizing the coarse emulsion B obtained in the step (3) by a colloid mill to control the particle size of an oil phase in the coarse emulsion B to be 2.5-3.5 mu m;
(5) and (3) uniformly mixing the coarse emulsion A and the coarse emulsion B obtained in the steps (2) and (4), and adjusting the viscosity of the emulsion to 400 +/-10 cps by using a thickening agent to complete the process.
Further, the mass fractions of the components in the crude emulsion A are as follows: 6 parts of paraffin; n20+13 parts; 6 parts of 68# white oil; 3 parts of glycerol tristearate and 0.5 part of Tween 85; the mass fraction of each component in the coarse emulsion B is as follows: 6 parts of paraffin; n20+11 parts; 6 parts of 68# white oil; 3 parts of glycerol tristearate; and 2 parts of hydrophobic white carbon black.
Further, the defoaming agent added into the buffer tank is diluted to 1-10%.
Further, the volume percentage of the defoaming agent added to the white water fed in step 3 is 0.05 to 0.02%.
Has the advantages that: according to the invention, the higher-performance fatty alcohol defoaming agent is prepared by changing the production process and an overflow dosing mode is combined, so that the defoaming agent has good dispersibility, high defoaming speed and lasting foam inhibition effect.

The defoaming agent is used for defoaming treatment of white water in a papermaking system: firstly, white water of a papermaking system is pumped and filtered by a filter pump and sent into a buffer tank, and the temperature of the white water of the system in the buffer tank is controlled to be 20-35 ℃; after the white water of the system reaches a set liquid level height, putting the defoaming agent with the volume percentage of 0.01-0.02% through a chemical adding pipe inserted into a buffer tank; and continuously starting the filter pump to send the white water into the buffer pool, simultaneously continuously sending the defoaming agent into the bottom of the buffer pool through a chemical feeding pipe inserted below the liquid level of the buffer pool, enabling the white water in the buffer pool to enter an overflow groove in an overflow mode, pumping the white water out of the overflow groove through the filter pump again, and circularly sending the white water to the subsequent steps for treatment, wherein a silk screen cover is arranged at the outlet end of the chemical feeding pipe.
Comparative example 1: the fatty alcohol antifoaming agent sample with the grain diameter of about 5 mu m is prepared by the traditional preparation method. Comparative example 2: certain brands of fatty alcohol antifoam are commercially available. Finally, by comparing the defoaming agent column-shaped defoaming/foam inhibition test data (foam height in ml), it can be seen that
Table 3: comparison of defoaming/foam suppressing data for defoamers of examples and comparative examples (foam height in ml)
As shown in Table 3, compared with the comparative example, the defoaming agent has better dispersibility, higher defoaming speed and longer foam inhibition effect.
According to the invention, by designing the coarse emulsions A and B composed of different particle sizes, the particle sizes in the coarse emulsion A are normally distributed and concentrated in a larger particle size range of 9-10 micrometers, and the papermaking white water surfactant is defoamed mainly in a bridging-spreading mode in a defoaming process; the particle size of the coarse emulsion B is normally and intensively distributed in a range of 3 mu m, and at the moment, the defoaming agent is locally contacted with the foam liquid film to reduce the surface tension of the foam liquid film and form a surface tension difference, so that the liquid film is broken to achieve a defoaming effect. Therefore, the defoaming agent of the present application has a significant advantage in defoaming volume-suppressing effect as compared with the comparative examples.
