IMPERIAL

PATENT OFFICE.

The invention relates to a method and apparatus to tar, petroleum o. The like. From To free water content.

This is extremely annoying with the liquids mentioned during the distillation, since its presence is a careful, time-consuming heating in the early stages of the Distillation required to avoid dangerous boil over.

ίο The various procedures so far seek drainage mostly through long storage of the tar and careful tapping the water layer, by centrifugation or by heating in more or less complicated To achieve cooking vessels or in atomizers (Köhn system).

Storage and centrifugation do not result in complete dehydration, while cooking and atomizing devices for complete dewatering a disproportionately large effort require warmth, for it is known that although water boils at 100 °, its complete expulsion from the distillation material is only possible at much higher heating levels is.

The present process avoids significant heating above the boiling point of the Water, but instead uses a mechanical device for rapid agitation of the hot tar, in order to break up all water bubbles and make them evaporate.

In contrast to known agitators, which are built into bubbles, driven from the outside and have slow tours, the new one will be. Device by the pressure of the liquid tar itself driven quickly and not into the relevant cooking vessel, but built into a special container.

The procedure is as follows: tar ο. Like. Is continuous through any vessel or pipe system and in this with some heating medium (heating water, steam or hot gases) heated to about 10 °.

The low-boiling components and also the water naturally produce when the appropriate Throttling a voltage of a few atmospheres in the vessel or in question Pipe system.

This communicates with f through a pipeline. If the valve is opened here, the flow of liquid and vapor moves into the walls a, b, c. and d space formed against a turbine or Pelton wheel e and sets it in motion.

The Pelton wheel e carries a perforated tube g at the bottom, which is loosely supported at the bottom and top and carries transverse sheets i at short intervals. The walls of α carry correspondingly offset plates, so that a trickling down liquid must describe a zigzag path.

As soon as the heated, tense tar has set the Pelton wheel β and the perforated pipe connected to it in motion, it is thrown away in the direction of the tangent and splattered on the walls of the vessel, runs down the inclined surface here and alternately reaches the cross plates i and h, always subject to the centrifugal effect.

The vapors that are formed are inherent in the

Partly through the perforated tube, partly in a zigzag way, partly directly from the Pelton wheel to the helmet k, which leads to some cooling system, with the outflow of which a separation of oil and water (Florentine template) can easily be made.

This mechanical working through of the tar prevents it from becoming foamy and boiling over the mass and causes a complete ίο drainage.

The dehydrated tar flows continuously through a pipe I attached to the bottom of α to collecting vessels.

Claims (2)

Patent Claims: i. Method of dewatering tar, Petroleum or the like, characterized in that it is above the boiling point of water heated substances are injected under pressure against a turbine wheel or the like located in a tube that is widened at the top like a box, and that which flows down into the tube Mass is worked through by the turbine driven stirrer, so that continuously drains a dehydrated product. . 2. Apparatus for carrying out the method according to claim 1, characterized in that in a long, with transverse plates (h) is provided, above manner of a housing removed vessels (a, b, c, d) a turbine (s) o. The like. With at This attached, downwardly directed, perforated and to the cross plates (h) offset cross plates carrying pipe (g) is mounted, which rotates when hot liquids enter through a pipe (f).
