Abstract

A vapor collection method and apparatus capable of capturing vapor compositions without substantial dilution. The method and apparatus utilize a material (12) that has a surface (14) with an adjacent gas phase. A chamber (16) is positioned in close proximity to a surface (14) of the material (12). The position of the chamber (16) creates a relatively small gap (H) between the surface of the material (14) and the chamber (16). The adjacent gas phase between the chamber and the surface define a region possessing an amount of mass. At least a portion of the mass is drawn through the region by induced flow. The utilization of a small gap (H) limits the flow of mass that is external to the chamber (16) from being swept through the chamber by induced flow.

At least a portion is induced stream to carry by air chamber 16 from this regional material.Fluid can be introduced by the common known conventional of those skilled in the art mechanism.Enter and the mass flow of the per unit width by air chamber is represented by following equation I:
M1+M2+M3=M4 (equation I)
Fig. 1 has described the various fluid streams that run into when implementing the inventive method.M1 passes through total clean average time of the mass flow that the gap enters zone and the per unit width by air chamber by what barometric gradient caused.To achieve the object of the present invention, M1 represents diluent stream in fact.M2 is that at least one first type surface from material enters described zone and per unit width mass flow average time by air chamber.M3 passes through total clean average time of the mass flow that the gap enters zone and the per unit width by air chamber by what the motion of matter caused.M3 is construed to mechanical traction thing and covering usually, and it comprises the material by the motion traction of material under the air chamber, and along with the material of material by under air chamber, drawing.Under situation static under the air chamber, M3 will be 0 at material.At gap H is that M3 is 0 under uniform (that is, the gap of the entrance and exit of air chamber equates) situation.When the inlet with the outlet gap inhomogeneous (promptly unequal) time, M3 is not 0.M4 is mass flow average time by the per unit width transportation of substances of air chamber.Knownly understand that material can deliver in the zone rather than by air chamber by the gap and carry.These flows are not included in the total net flow that comprises among the equation I.For the size of purpose Rack of the present invention is in gap length vertical with motion of matter direction and on the material plane.
The inventive method and equipment are designed to a large amount of amounts that reduce the diluent gas of carrying by air chamber.Use is right after the air chamber of material surface and minimum negative pressure gradient can obviously reduce diluent gas, i.e. M1.Barometric gradient Δ p is defined as pressure p o poor of the pressure p c of air chamber bottom periphery and air chamber outside, wherein Δ p=pc-po.The value of M1 is usually greater than 0 but be no more than 0.25kg/ second/rice.Preferably, M1 is greater than 0 but be no more than 0.1kg/ second/rice, preferably greater than 0 but be no more than 0.01kg/ second/rice.
In another expression way, the average speed that derives from M1 can be used to represent the flow velocity by the carrier gas phase component of air chamber.Be right after the air chamber of material surface and little negative pressure gradient can obviously reduce by the gap total clean average gas phase velocity (v).The average gas phase velocity that derives from M1 is defined as: (v)=M1/ ρ A.In the formula, M1 such as above-mentioned, ρ are current density (kg/m 3), A is the sectional area (m in the zone that enters of fluid 2).In the formula, A=H (2w+21), H such as above-mentioned wherein, w is the length in the gap on the direction vertical with the direction of motion of material, the 1st, the length in the gap on motion of matter direction.For the purpose of the present invention, (value v) is usually greater than 0 but be no more than 0.5 meter per second.

This method is applicable to collects vapor composition continuously.This vapor composition is not dilution preferably, usually from air chamber inflow operating procedure subsequently.Operating procedure subsequently can comprise following optional step, for example separates or disappears and ruin one or more components in the gas phase.Lock out operation can controllably occur in air chamber inside, and perhaps it can occur in the outside.Preferably, vapor stream uses conventional separation method, for example absorbs, absorption, film separate or condensation separates.The high concentration of vapor composition and low volume flow have strengthened the gross efficiency of conventional lock out operation.Preferably at least a portion steam component is high enough to allow being separated in when carrying out under 0 ℃ or the higher temperature of steam component subsequently to capture in concentration.This temperature has prevented frosting in the separation process with equipment and method advantage.
Vapor stream from air chamber can contain steam or steam and mixtures of liquids.Vapor stream also can be included in the particulate matter of the preceding elimination of separation process.Suitable separation method can comprise, for example Chang Gui separation method is as the vapor composition in the concentrated air-flow; The direct condensation of the vapor composition that dilutes in the air-flow; The direct condensation of the vapor composition that concentrates in the air-flow; Two sections direct condensations; Use the vapor composition that dilutes in activated carbon or the synthetic adsorbing medium adsorption gas flow; Use the vapor composition that concentrates in activated carbon or the synthetic adsorbing medium adsorption gas flow; Use has the vapor phase component of diluting in the medium adsorption gas flow of high absorption property; And use has the vapor phase component that concentrates in the medium adsorption gas flow of high absorption property.The destroying device that disappears comprises conventional device, as thermal oxidation apparatus.According to the composition of gaseous component, air-flow can optionally discharge or leach and emptying after leaving air chamber.
A preferred implementation of the present invention is described among Fig. 2-4.Device 20 of the present invention comprises the fabric of carrying by the fabric induction system (not shown) between heater block 24 and air chamber 26 22.Fabric 22 comprises the material that contains at least a evaporated components (not shown).Air chamber 26 comprises bottom periphery 28.Air chamber 26 is sentenced and is made the bottom periphery 28 of air chamber 26 stipulate the gap H between air chamber and the fabric 22 being right after fabric 22.Air chamber 26 randomly comprises the headroom 39 on heat(ing) coil 30, fire extinguishing parts 32 and the fire extinguishing parts 32.Manifold 34 provides and being connected of pressure control mechanism (not shown).Manifold 34 finally provides and has exported 36 to deliver a vapor in the treatment step subsequently.
In operating process, heater block 24 mainly provides conduction heat energy with the evaporated components in the evaporation fabric to the bottom of fabric 22.Air chamber 26 usefulness barometric gradients operations makes steam when fabric 22 is emitted, and wherein at least a portion steam is conveyed in the air chamber 26 by down suction H.The steam conveying that sucks in the air chamber 26 is used for further processing by manifold 34 and outlet 36.Gap H and barometric gradient allow under the situation that does not have dilution basically steam to be captured in the air chamber 26.
This better embodiment relates to the evaporated components in conveying and the collection of material.Evaporated components can be in the material, on the material surface or in the contiguous gas phase.These materials comprise, for example Tu Bu substrate, polymer, pigment, pottery, thickener, fabric, non-woven fabric, fiber, powder, paper, food, medicine or their combination.Preferably, provide fabric as material.Then, also can utilize the separating part of material or the sheet material of material.
This material comprises at least a evaporated components.Evaporated components is can evaporate from material and any liquid or solid composition that separates.Non-limitative example includes organic compounds and inorganic compound or their combination, as water or ethanol.In general, originally evaporated components can be used as the solvent that begins to produce this material.The present invention is applicable to removing of solvent subsequently preferably.
According to the present invention, apply enough energy to evaporate at least a evaporated components to this material.The energy that need be used for evaporating evaporated components can apply by radiation, conduction, convection current or their combination.For example, hot conduction can comprise flat heating plate, the curved surface heating plate of material by being right after, or partly material is coated on heated cylinder around.The example of thermal convection current can comprise by nozzle, spout or forced air-ventilating system and imports hot-air to material.Can lead material and absorbed by material of electromagnetic radiation such as radio frequency, microwave energy or infrared energy causes the inside heating of material.Energy can be applied on any or all surfaces of material.In addition, can provide enough internal energies, for example occur in preheating or heat-producing chemical reaction in the material to this material.Energy applies technology and can be used singly or in combination.
The energy that those skilled in the art become known for heating can be provided by the source of routine.For example, enough energy can provide by burning or other thermal source of electricity, fuel.Energy can directly change into heat at point of application, perhaps indirectly by heating liquid such as water or oil, heated air such as air or inert gas or heating steam such as air-flow or conventional heat-transfer fluid.
Air chamber of the present invention is being right after the material part to form the gap between the bottom periphery of air chamber and material.This gap is the uniform basically space length between the bottom of material surface and air chamber preferably.Clearance distance better is below the 3cm, is more preferably below the 1.5cm, preferably below the 0.75cm.This air chamber is operated under barometric gradient and is made steam suck in the air chamber.When steam sucked air chamber, the air chamber that is right after material reduced to minimum with the dilute strength of steam.Except the gap, the dilution of steam component also can be attached to mechanical component in the air chamber by use, reduces to minimum as the extension among Fig. 2-4 35,37.When extending beyond fabric and contacting with heating platen 24, the extension also provides the sealing of side.
According to the present invention, preferably select the generation speed of total mass flow rate with gaseous component in the matter of matching closely.This will help to prevent the dilution or the loss of steam component.Total volumetric flow in the air chamber preferably be at least the steam component volume flow 100%.In addition, the present invention can realize uniform flow rate basically in the inlet surface of passing air chamber.Can realize when having headroom on one deck porous media in air chamber.In described situation, the pressure of side falls to fall with the pressure by porous media and ignores in headroom.Those skilled in the art will know that the aperture that can regulate headroom and porous media is to regulate the flow velocity by the inlet surface of air chamber.
In another better embodiment, the configurable gap drying system that routine is arranged of air chamber of the present invention.The gap drying system uses direct solvent condenses and the heat conduction combination for main heat transfer, does not therefore need to apply compulsory convection current with evaporation with take away the solvent evaporant.The gap drier is made of hot plate that is separated by little gap and cold drawing.The uncoated side of the contiguous fabric of hot plate provides energy with evaporation coating solvent.The contiguous coated side of cold drawing provides the driving force of condensation and the conveying of solvent evaporant to pass the gap.Cold drawing with surface configuration is provided, and it has prevented that liquid from dripping back on the surface of coating.Along with the substrate feed of coating by the gap between the two boards, recovery dry and solvent is carried out simultaneously.The gap drying system is described in U.S. Patent No. 6,047 fully, in 151,4,980,697,5,813,133,5,694,701,6,134,808 and 5,581,905, with them all with reference to being incorporated into this.
Air chamber can be arranged on the some optional points of gap drying system.For example, air chamber can place opposing ends, gap drier inside or their combination of gap drier.Fig. 5 a shows the air chamber 40 on the trailing edge 44 that is positioned at gap drying system 42.
In the configuration of the gap of routine drying type, some gaseous component is carried by suck out the back from the fabric of motion.Gaseous component in the gap between fabric and top board may be vital, because its common available evaporated components is saturated.This component (solvent or other component) may be vital, at this moment because of the reason of considering from environment, health or secure context.When this gap enough hour, the volume of this extraction flow Q can be easy to from fabric speed V Fabric, maximal clearance height h uAnd film/fabric width W calculates:
Q=(1/2) (V Fabric) (W) (h u)
For example, for the fabric speed of 0.508 meter per second, width is 1.53m, and the gap is 0.0492cm, this means that flow is 0.00123m 3/ second.This be one less and be considered to than with the more manageable flow of other conventional drying means (the present invention of gas phase flow-rate ratio exceeds the several number magnitude).
Like this, air chamber of the present invention is suitable for carrying and collecting the material of less volume in the contiguous gas phase of fabric.Its basic embodiment is shown in Fig. 5 a.Gap drying system 42 comprises the fabric 46 between cold plate 48 and hot plate 50.Spacing is that the gap of H is formed between the upper surface and cold plate 48 of fabric 46.Cold plate 48 comprises that capillary surface 52 is to carry the material of condensation from condensing surface 54.Air chamber 40 is configured in fabric 46 and leaves the gap part is left gap drying system 42 with collection gaseous component.
Applying sealing to the trailing edge of air chamber can help mass flow to pass through this air chamber.Sealing plays the cleaning effect to be left from the trailing edge of air chamber to prevent gas, so just forces it to enter in the air chamber.Sealing can comprise and is forced to gas or mechanical seal.Fig. 5 a has described along the optional air that is forced to of the downward direction of arrow on the exterior portion 41 of air chamber and has flowed F.Be forced to gas barrier by any gaseous component of fabric 46 carrying of motion.This gas can be air, nitrogen, carbon dioxide or other inert gas system of cleaning.
Mechanical seal also can be used to force gaseous component to enter in the air chamber.Fig. 5 b shows in the outside 41 of air chamber 40 and uses flexible seal parts 56 to reduce the amount of carrying by the diluent gas of air chamber 40.Flexible seal 56 can be pulled on fabric 46 or be placed the little gap location of fabric 46.In this case, the gap is uneven, is approximately 0 at the exit H near sealing.
