Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a washing process which is particularly suitable for carrying out in commercial laundries and is based on the new development of a pasty detergent which is fed into the washing process by means of a metering system which has been specifically matched to this agent.
  • Liquid to pasty detergents are known in large numbers. These are generally tailored to household needs. H. they should be sufficiently liquid and easy to pour and dose. Since they should also be stable in storage within a relatively wide temperature range, the use of organic solvents and / or hydrotropic additives is usually not possible. However, these additives are washing-inactive, comparatively complex and additionally require packaging volume or transport and storage capacity. In particular, a content of flammable solvents is a problem, which requires additional safety precautions due to the comparatively high throughput of detergents in laundry companies. Detergent concentrates of the type mentioned are therefore not or only of limited use for laundries.
  • Powder detergents are therefore mainly used in laundry companies. Since the precise dosing of such agents is problematic or labor-intensive, particularly in large companies with extensive automation, the agents are usually stored in pre-dissolved form as master liquors and metered, that is, an aqueous concentrate is prepared, which is then fed to the individual consumption points.
  • the detergents usually used in laundry companies contain comparatively high proportions of washing alkalis, which are only soluble in cold water to a limited extent and moreover lead to salting-out effects. They cause phase separation, with the result that the organic components, in particular the nonionic surfactants and soaps, separate and cream.
  • the detergent consists of a paste that is essentially free of water and organic solvents.
  • “Substantially free of water” is understood to mean a state in which the content of liquid water, that is to say not in the form of water of hydration and constitutional water, is below 2% by weight, preferably below 1% by weight and in particular below 0 , 5% by weight. Higher water contents are disadvantageous because they increase the viscosity of the agent disproportionately and reduce the stability.
  • Organic solvents which include the low molecular weight and low-boiling alcohols and ether alcohols commonly used in liquid concentrates, as well as hydrotropic compounds, are also absent, apart from traces that can be introduced with individual active ingredients.
  • the detergent consists of a liquid phase and a finely divided phase dispersed therein.
  • the liquid phase consists essentially of nonionic surfactants or surfactant mixtures melting at temperatures below 10 ° C. It is advisable to use surfactants or their mixtures whose pour point (solidification point) is below 5 ° C, so that solidification of the paste at lower transport and storage temperatures is avoided.
  • surfactants are e.g. B. alkoxylated alcohols, which can be linear or methyl-branched in the 2-position (oxo alcohols), and have 9 to 16 carbon atoms and 2 to 10 ethylene glycol ether groups (EO). Alkoxylates which have both EO groups and propylene glycol ether groups (PO) are also suitable because of their low pour point.
  • B. alkoxylated alcohols which can be linear or methyl-branched in the 2-position (oxo alcohols), and have 9 to 16 carbon atoms and 2 to 10 ethylene glycol ether groups (EO).
  • Alkoxylates which have both EO groups and propylene glycol ether groups (PO) are also suitable because of their low pour point.
  • nonionic surfactants are: C9 ⁇ 11 oxo alcohol with 2 to 10 EO, such as C9 ⁇ 11 + 3 EO, C9 ⁇ 11 + 5 EO, C9 ⁇ 11 + 7 EO, C9 ⁇ 11 + 9 EO; C11 ⁇ 13 oxo alcohol with 2 to 8 EO, such as C11 ⁇ 13 + 2 EO, C11 ⁇ 13 + 5 EO, C11 ⁇ 13 + 6 EO, C11 ⁇ 13 + 7 EO; C12 ⁇ 15 oxo alcohol + 3 - 6 EO, such as C12 ⁇ 15 + 3 EO, C12 ⁇ 15 + 5 EO; Isotridecanol with 3 to 8 EO; linear fatty alcohols with 10 to 14 carbon atoms and 2.5 to 5 EO; linear or branched C9 ⁇ 14 alcohols with 3 to 8 EO and 1 to 3 PO, such as C9 ⁇ 11-oxo alcohol + (EO) 4 (PO) 1 ⁇ 2 (EO) 4 or - C11 ⁇ 13-oxo alcohol + (
  • ethoxylated alcohols whose terminal hydroxyl groups are alkylated by lower alkyl groups are suitable due to their low pour point within the scope of the invention, for example a C10 ⁇ 14 alcohol having 3 to 10 EO groups and a terminal methoxyl group.
  • Other suitable nonionic surfactants are EO-PO-EO block polymers with a correspondingly low pour point and ethoxylated alkylphenols, such as nonylphenol with 7 to 10 EO. The latter surfactants can, however, because of their reduced biodegradability in certain areas may be excluded from use. They are therefore less preferred.
  • the content of the pastes in the nonionic surfactants mentioned should be such that, on the one hand, they are still sufficiently free-flowing and pumpable, but on the other hand they are not so fluid that there is a risk of segregation.
  • Pastes with a content of 15 to 30% by weight, preferably 18 to 28% by weight and in particular 20 to 25% by weight, of liquid nonionic surfactants with a low pour point (below 5 ° C.) are suitable. If surfactants with a higher pour point, for example that of 5 to 20 ° C., are used in a mixture with particularly low-melting surfactants, the minimum content is somewhat higher, for example in the range from 18% by weight, preferably from 22 to 24% by weight. , the maximum content being 35% by weight, preferably 30% by weight.
  • nonionic surfactant can already have the desired requirements with regard to low pour point, favorable flow behavior, high detergency and low foaming.
  • An example of this are oleyl alcohol or mixtures rich in oleyl alcohol, which was first reacted with 1 to 2 PO and then with 5 to 7 EO.
  • particularly favorable properties are often achieved with mixtures of nonionic surfactants with different degrees of ethoxylation and possibly different C chain lengths.
  • nonionic surfactants with a low degree of ethoxylation and low pour point for example C9 ⁇ 15 alcohols with 2 to 5 EO
  • those with a higher degree of ethoxylation and higher pour point for example C11 ⁇ 15 alcohols with 5 to 7 EO
  • the mixing ratio between the two alcohol ethoxylates depends both on the washing requirements and the flow behavior of the washing paste and is generally between 15: 1 to 1: 3, preferably 8: 1 to 1: 1.
  • Examples of this are a mixture of 2 parts by weight of C9 ⁇ 11 -Oxo alcohol + 2.5 EO and 1 part by weight of C11 ⁇ 13-oxo alcohol + 7 EO or a mixture of 3 parts by weight of a C11 ⁇ 1 ⁇ -oxo alcohol + 3 EO and 2 parts by weight of a C9 ⁇ 13-oxo alcohol + 8 EO and a mixture of 7 parts by weight of C13-oxo alcohol + 3 EO and 1 part by weight of the same alcohol + 6 EO.
  • the flow properties of the pastes can be modified by adding low molecular weight polyethylene glycols (e.g. 200 to 800).
  • the addition can be up to 15% by weight, for example.
  • the contribution of these additives, which are often also included in the nonionic surfactants, to the detergency is comparatively low.
  • They can have a foam-suppressing effect and are therefore desirable.
  • Their proportion is preferably up to 10% by weight, in particular 0.5 to 8% by weight.
  • the polyglycols can also be wholly or partly replaced by paraffin oils or liquid paraffin mixtures, which do not contribute to the washing power, but make the paste easier to process, especially during the grinding of the ingredients, and bring about a considerable reduction in foam, which is particularly noticeable in the rinse cycle makes.
  • the proportion of such paraffin oils or paraffin oil mixtures is expediently not more than 8% by weight, preferably not more than 6% by weight.
  • Liquid long-chain ethers can also be used in the same amount for the same purpose. Examples include the C8 ⁇ 16 alkyl ethers of dicyclopentenol.
  • the detergent contains a solid phase which is homogeneously dispersed in the liquid phase and contains the other detergent constituents which have a cleaning action and, if appropriate, auxiliaries. These other detergent components which have a cleaning action primarily include washing alkalis and sequestering compounds.
  • Anionic surfactants in particular those from the class of the sulfonate surfactants and the soaps, can also be present.
  • anhydrous soda is also suitable, but because of absorption processes it requires larger proportions of the liquid phase and is therefore less preferred.
  • the proportion of the agents in metasilicate can be 35 to 70% by weight, preferably 40 to 65% by weight and in particular 45 to 55% by weight, and in soda 0 to 20% by weight, preferably 0 to 10% by weight. -%.
  • Suitable sequestrants are those from the class of aminopolycarboxylic acids and polyphosphonic acids.
  • the aminopolycarboxylic acids include nitrilotriacetic acid, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid and their higher homologues.
  • Suitable polyphosphonic acids are 1-hydroxyethane-1,1-diphosphonic acid, aminotri- (methylenephosphonic acid), ethylenediaminetetra- (methylenephosphonic acid) and their higher homologs, such as. B. Diethylenetraminetetra (methylenephosphonic acid).
  • the aforementioned polycarboxylic acids or polyphosphonic acids are usually used in the form of the sodium or potassium salts.
  • Sodium nitrilotriacetate is preferably used in proportions of up to 10% by weight, preferably 2 to 6% by weight.
  • Suitable sequestering agents are also polycarboxylic acids or hydroxypolycarboxylic acids in the form of the alkali metal salts, for example sodium citrate and sodium gluconate.
  • the preferred sequestering agents include homopolymeric and / or copolymeric carboxylic acids or their sodium or potassium salts, with the sodium salts being preferred.

If a phosphate content is ecologically harmless (for example in the case of wastewater treatment that eliminates phosphates), polymeric phosphates, such as sodium tripolyphosphate (STP), can also be present. Their proportion can be up to 20% by weight, based on the agent, the proportion of the other solids, e.g. B. the sodium silicate, is reduced accordingly. The proportion of the STP is preferably at most 15% by weight and in particular at most 10% by weight.
  • STP sodium tripolyphosphate
  • Fine-particle zeolites of the NaA type which have a calcium binding capacity in the range from 100 to 200 mg CaO / g (according to the information in DE 12 24 837) are also to be regarded as sequestering agents in the sense of the present invention. Their particle size is usually in the range of 1-10 ⁇ m. They are used in dry form. The water contained in bound form in the zeolites does not interfere in the present case.
  • the zeolite content is 0 to 20% by weight, preferably 0 to 10% by weight.
  • Anionic surfactants are suitable as further cleaning additives which can be incorporated into the detergent in a solid, finely divided, largely anhydrous form.

  • An addition of sulfonate surfactant not only increases the washing power, but also improves the stability of the pastes against signs of sedimentation and facilitates the dispersion of the paste in the water.
  • the sulfonate surfactant essentially distributes itself in the liquid phase and improves the solid / liquid balance in favor of the liquid phase.

Such an addition also reduces the tendency to foam and improves the washing power of the compositions. Larger proportions than 1 to 2% by weight can solidify the paste and should therefore be avoided.
  • Washing aids can be considered as further constituents, which are also predominantly assigned to the solid phase. These include graying inhibitors, optical brighteners, foam inhibitors, bleaches and dyes. Insofar as fragrances are used which are generally liquid, these pass into the liquid phase. Because of their small amount, however, they have no appreciable influence on the flow behavior of the pastes.
  • Suitable graying inhibitors are cellulose ethers, such as carboxymethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, hydroxyalkyl celluloses and mixed ethers, such as methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, methyl hydroxypropyl cellulose and methyl carboxymethyl cellulose.

  • the dosing device essentially consists of the following basic elements ( Figure 1): - a storage container (1) for the washing paste (2), - a removal and conveying device (3) for the paste, - A mixing device (4) for the paste with water, which is removed from a feed (5), a feeder (6) equipped with metering valves, which is possibly connected to an intermediate container or expansion tank (7), to the point of consumption (washing machine) (8), - A control device (9) that registers the need for detergent or wash liquor at the point of use and the functions of the devices (3), (4) and (5) including the metering of the water supply from (6) or the removal from (7 ) controls depending on the need.
  • the Control lines are drawn in dashed lines and the main pulse directions are marked by arrows.
  • the storage container (1) is expediently identical to the shipping container in which the product (A) is delivered. Its shape can be any. Examples of this are barrels, barrels or cartridges made of metal or plastic material or also foil packaging, for example sacks or bags, which can be packed in outer cartons. Containers with rigid outer walls and a circular or square cross section are preferred, since these facilitate the removal of the paste.
  • the removal device is intended to ensure that the storage container is emptied as completely as possible and its function and design are adapted to the function of the storage container and the mixing device. It can consist of a simple pipeline that connects the storage container to the mixing device. However, it can also contain additional elements that take over and regulate product management.
  • Figure II to VI illustrate some embodiments, without the invention being limited thereto.
  • Figure II shows an arrangement in which the paste is removed from an open container.
  • the extraction line (31) extends to the bottom of the container.
  • the mixing device (4) which can consist of an injector and generates a negative pressure in the extraction line, sucks in the paste and mixes it with water, which is supplied via the line system (5).
  • the mixing device (4) can also consist of a motor-driven pump which draws in the paste via line (3) and mixes it with the inflowing water on the pressure side, for example by means of a nozzle.
  • Figure III shows an arrangement in which the container is equipped with a movable, tightly closing plate (follower plate 21). Due to its weight, this follower plate exerts an additional pressure on the surface of the paste and causes an even lowering of the paste surface, stripping of paste residues from the inner wall of the container and partial liquefaction and easier conveyance of the thixotropic paste.
  • the product can be removed from the underside of the follower plate.
  • the follower plate can also be driven by a motor or by means of a pressure ram, its propulsion being regulated by the control device. In this way, the material can be pressed into the extraction line (31) and conveyed to the mixing device.
  • Figure IV shows an arrangement in which the mixing device (4) dips into the storage container and removes the paste directly from it.
  • Figure V shows arrangements in which the paste is conveyed under pressure.
  • This pressure can act, for example, hydraulically or pneumatically on a membrane, a flexible inner container (bag), a piston or a hydraulic cylinder.
  • the piston can be fed, for example, by means of a rack, threaded spindle or eccentric shaft.
  • a hydraulic cylinder also allow a controlled feed and thus an exact dosage of the paste at this point.
  • Figure VI shows arrangements with descending product guidance.
  • the storage container consists of a cartridge, which is closed at the top by a movable plate. This plate can weighed down or be equipped with a printing device according to FIG.
  • the right arrangement shows a container in which the paste is filled into a plastic inner bag. The bag shrinks as the emptying progresses, the evenness of the emptying also being facilitated by a follower plate which can be pressurized or equipped with controlled propulsion.
  • a follower plate which can be pressurized or equipped with controlled propulsion.
  • Such an arrangement is suitable for a cardboard packaging with an inner bag as a storage container.
  • the paste can be conveyed to the mixing device (4) either by a feed pump (3) or by the pressure exerted on the paste (compare arrangements according to Figure (V) or by the negative pressure exerted by the mixing device (4) or by a suitable combination
  • the conveying by means of negative pressure is possible, for example, in an arrangement in which the mixing device (4) consists of an injector which works on the principle of the water jet pump.
  • the mixing ratio is controlled by means of suitable throttle devices or Dosing valves which are arranged in the water inlet (5) or the removal line (31), but the mixing device (4) can also consist of a motor-driven propeller mixer or an equivalent mechanical mixer.
  • the paste is dosed via Arrangements with controlled paste guidance, for example with a feed pump or an Ano Rdnung according to Figure V or VI and controlled water supply via the pipe system (5).
  • shut-off device it has proven to be expedient to integrate an additional shut-off device into the mixing device, in particular if it consists of an injector operating on the principle of the water jet pump.
  • This shut-off device is intended to prevent the feed water from coming into contact with the supplied paste during the rest phases. Because it has demonstrated that during longer periods of rest the paste in the feed reacts with the water remaining in the injector. This can lead to the formation of crust-like deposits in the contact area, which impair the functionality of the injector. Comparable faults can occur if a high back pressure builds up briefly in long metering lines to the consumption points. This back pressure leads to the fact that supplied water is pressed into the paste suction line and possibly up to the area of the storage container. The paste can solidify to such an extent that it can no longer be conveyed.
  • a controllable or automatically closing shut-off device integrated in the mixing device or in the injector avoids these possible disadvantages.
  • This shut-off device can e.g. consist of a ball shut-off valve that interrupts the access of the water to the paste feed as soon as the system is in the idle phase or a back pressure builds up inside the injector. The valve releases the feed as soon as a sufficiently large negative pressure has built up in the area of the paste feed.
  • the valve can be controlled by means of counter pressure from an adjustable spring.
  • the valve is preferably also opened and closed via the control device (9).
  • the locking device can e.g. consist of a rotatable shut-off valve, which is driven by a motor and whose position is based on the prevailing pressure conditions.
  • FIG VII illustrates an embodiment.
  • the water enters the injector (41) under increased pressure via the inlet connection (42), passes through the cross-sectional constriction (43) and leaves the injector via the enlarged one Outlet nozzle (44).
  • the rotatable shut-off device (45) which is shown in the drawing in the open position, is arranged laterally in the area of the cross-sectional expansion in which a negative pressure is formed. The opening is closed by a rotation of 90 °, thus preventing the water from entering the paste suction nozzle (46).
  • FIG. VIII A further embodiment of the mixing device, with which the feed water can effectively be prevented from penetrating into the paste feed, is illustrated by FIG. VIII.
  • the water supply can be designed by installing nozzles or by a corresponding, for example tangential arrangement of the outflow opening in such a way that the paste and water are premixed and the paste is prevented from adhering to the funnel wall.
  • the function of the funnel can be monitored and, for example, the feed can be interrupted by installing sensors which register the filling level of the funnel if the further conveyance is delayed or interrupted by backflow or malfunctions of the mixing device.
  • An overflow device can also act in the same sense, which absorbs the overflowing portions of paste and feed water and, after eliminating the fault, forwards their contents to the mixing device.
  • the paste is diluted in the mixing device at least to such an extent that the gel phase is skipped.
  • the nonionic surfactants and the salts which are not or only partially dissolved form a highly viscous, viscous gel which is poorly or relatively slowly distributed and dissolved in water. Therefore, the paste in the mixing device a sufficient amount of water is added so that this intermediate phase cannot form. In general, 0.5 times to 1.5 times the amount of water is sufficient for this.
  • the paste can also be diluted more, for example up to the concentration of the ready-to-use lye. In general, however, a lower dilution will be chosen, especially if several machines are to be operated in one cycle with one metering device.
  • Suitable dilution ratios of paste to water are between 2: 1 and 1:10, preferably 3: 2 and 1: 3.
  • a conductivity sensor can be installed after the mixing device, which registers the conductivity and thus the concentration of the detergent solution.
  • the function of the feed and dosing system can thus be monitored effectively and its operation can be interrupted in the event of faults. This applies in particular to cases in which the paste supply is interrupted or does not occur due to the emptying of the storage container or a disturbance in the water supply occurs.
  • the aqueous concentrate can be fed directly to the individual washing machines via appropriate, consumption-controlled distribution devices. However, if several machines are operated simultaneously or in cycles, it may be advisable to arrange an intermediate container or expansion tank (7) between the mixing device and the point of use so that a sufficient supply of aqueous detergent concentrate is available at all times during peak operation.
  • the expansion tank is preferably equipped with a mixing or stirring device.
  • the line system can be designed as a ring line and the expansion tank can be included in this system. In this ring line, the concentrate is continuously pumped around in a circuit and only the required quantity is supplied or removed from it. This circulation of the concentrate effectively prevents possible settling of undissolved or crystallizing constituents or clogging of the line system or the metering valves.
  • An expansion tank is not necessary if the individual dosing elements, i.e. H. Tapping device, mixing device, water supply valve (5) and the metering valves (6) to the tapping points are controlled synchronously. Any pressure fluctuations in the line system can be detected by a pressure sensor and compensated for by appropriate control of the pumps and valves. If several washing machines are operated at the same time, the cycle times follow each other so briefly that undesired sedimentation does not occur.
  • the concentrate is fed into the washing machine via the metering valve (6), which, like the metering and mixing devices already described above, is controlled by the process computer.
  • An optimal washing result and an optimal utilization of the detergent can be achieved by a consumption-oriented control.
  • the electrical conductivity of the wash liquor which is determined and monitored with a measuring cell arranged in the washing machine, has proven to be a control variable.
  • Pollutants are tracked, which is generally associated with a decrease in conductivity. In the event of a large amount of dirt, washing-active concentrate can then be replenished automatically.
  • washing concentrate can be saved and unnecessary additional consumption can be avoided by the consumption-oriented dosage.
  • other methods can also be used, for example a nephelometric control of the wash liquor.
  • the concentration of the wash liquor is in the range of 0.5 to 10 g / l. It is based on the degree of soiling of the laundry, ie in the case of less soiled laundry the application concentration is generally 0.5 to 5 g / l, in the case of heavily soiled laundry 5 to 10 g / l. In special cases, e.g. B. in heavily soiled work clothes, the concentration can be even higher and be, for example, 12 g / l. In general, it is 2 to 8 g / l.
  • the liquor ratio (kg of textile to liter of wash liquor) is generally 1: 2 to 1:10, preferably 1: 4 to 1: 6.
  • softened (permuted) water is used, and also for rinsing, at least for the first rinse cycle , usually softened water is used.
  • the washing process in the machine does not differ significantly from the conventional working methods, with the exception that (as explained above) the detergent can be automatically replenished if there is an increased demand as a result of heavy soiling.
