Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for screening a mechanically manufactured fibre pulp mixture containing fibres of varying lengths, in which method the fibre pulp mixture obtained by mechanically defibering wood in the presence of water is screened into at least two fractions containing fibres of mainly varying lengths.
- the invention also relates to an apparatus for screening a mechanically manufactured fibre pulp mixture containing fibres of varying lengths, the apparatus comprising screening means for screening the fibre pulp mixture obtained by mechanically defibering wood in the presence of water into at least two fractions containing fibres of mainly varying lengths.
- the invention further relates to a screen for screening a mechanically manufactured fibre pulp mixture containing fibres of varying lengths into two fractions containing fibres of substantially varying lengths, the screen comprising at least one screening surface through which water is removed from the fibre pulp mixture and some of the shorter fibres with the water and the remaining fibre pulp mixture is removed from the screen from the same side of the screening surface to which the fibre pulp mixture was fed.
- Mechanical fibre pulp is manufactured by grinding or ther- momechanically refining wood into fibre in the presence of water, resulting in a fibre pulp mixture. Fibres having different freeness values are typically created in prior art manufacturing processes.
- the division of the fibres is based on a defibering process and the material used, and the ratio between the fibres having different freeness values cannot be significantly adjusted during the actual defibration.
- the result is therefore a fibre pulp mixture, in which the portion of fibres having different freeness values and operating properties is by no means necessarily the most favourable as regards use.
- the fibre material is screened in the prior art methods using screens comprising various screening surfaces so that fibres, which are smaller than a particular size and which have passed through a screening surface, are directed for use, and the coarser fibres are removed from the process and returned again to the process through reject refining.
- the final result is a fibre pulp mixture, where the lengths of the fibres and thus their freeness values vary widely, and the structure of the fibre pulp mixture and the properties thereof do not correspond with the desired ones.
- mechanical fibre pulp that contains long fibres of high quality and short fibres provided with a binding ability, but not substantially mid-size fibres.
- Such fibre pulp cannot be achieved using conventional mechanical fibre pulp screening methods.
- the method of the invention is characterized in that in at least one screening phase the fibre pulp mixture or a part thereof is screened to separate short fibres from the fibre pulp mixture or from a part thereof using a gap screen comprising a convergent gap and at least one wire restricting said gap, whereby the fibre pulp mixture to be screened or a part thereof is fed into said convergent gap so that it flows in the same direction as the wire towards an output port at the convergent end of the gap, and the short fibres and some of the water fed into the gap exit through the openings in the wire whereas the water and some of the remaining fibre pulp mixture exit through the output port of the gap.
- the apparatus of the invention is characterized in that the apparatus comprises a gap screen to separate short fibres comprising a con- vergent gap and at least one wire restricting said convergent gap, whereby the fibre pulp mixture to be screened or a part thereof is fed into said convergent gap so that it flows through the gap screen in the same direction as the wire towards the convergent end of the gap so that the short fibres and some of the water exit through the openings in the wire and the remaining part of the fibre pulp mixture exits from the gap screen through the output port at the convergent end of the gap.
- the screen of the invention is characterized in that the screen is a gap screen comprising a convergent gap restricted by a wire and into which the fibre pulp mixture is fed to move in the same direction as the wire, whereby water and shorter fibres exit through the openings in the wire and the remaining fibre pulp mixture exits from the output port at the convergent end of the gap.
- An essential idea of the invention is that an extremely fine and short-fibered fibre pulp material is separated from the fibre pulp mixture using a gap screen, preferably one formed by means of twin wires, whereby a very short-fibred material having a high freeness value is obtained that cannot be so distinctly distinguished as a specific pulp by means of other screening methods.
- a part of a fibre pulp mixture containing medium-length and shorter fibre materials preferably already screened by separating long fibres therefrom is screened anew using said gap screen formed by means of twin wires.
- the medium-sized fibre material containing some fine fibres separated from the gap screen is directed further to be refined.
- the invention provides such an advantage that a fibre fraction that is shorter than a fraction representing a particular length can be very accurately separated from the fibre pulp mixture containing fibres of varying lengths.
- An advantage provided by a preferred embodiment of the invention is that as the long-fibred fibre material is at first screened and thereafter a very short fibre material having a high freeness value is separated using the gap screen from the remaining fraction containing medium-sized and short-fibred material, then the final result obtained is three fibre pulp fractions with different properties that can be mixed with one another or with other fibre materials in order to achieve a desired fibre web quality.
- long fibres can be com- bined with very short fibres in order to obtain a particular paper quality, which is not possible when medium-sized fibres are included in the fibre pulp.
- fibre pulp fractions of varying properties and lengths can be obtained as desired from the mechanically manufactured fibre pulp, and thereby the desired fractions can easily be combined with the manu- facturing of fibre web, and only the fibre pulp fractions required can be used to produce a particular type of fibre web.
- a fibre web that contains only long or short fibres can be manufactured and the medium-sized fibre obtained can be used to produce another type of fibre web.
- FIG. 1 schematically shows the method and apparatus of the invention
- Figure 2 schematically shows a gap screen to be used in the application of the method of the invention
- Figure 3 schematically shows a screening result obtained using the gap screen of the invention.
- Figure 1 schematically shows the method and apparatus of the invention, in which freeness values of a particular fibre pulp are provided by way of example, on the basis of which values the division into different fibre pulp fractions can be carried out.
- Figure 1 schematically shows how a material 1 to be defi- bered is directed to a defibrator 2, which may be a grinder known per se or a refiner, typically a thermomechanical pulp refiner.
- the fibre pulp mixture obtained from defibration is directed to screening means, or at first to a first screen 3, where the mixture can be divided for example in accordance with freeness value "16" so that the fraction containing long fibres and has passed through the first screen 3 proceeds to be further processed and the fraction containing even longer fibres and shives and has not passed through said screen is directed to be refined to a first recirculation refiner 4, from where the fraction is returned to the first screen 3 for screening. Consequently, a fibre that is longer than the desired one continuously circulates until it passes the first screen and then continues onwards in the procedure.
- the first refiner may either be a separate refiner, or the fraction to be returned can also be returned to the actual defibrator 2 as indicted by the dashed line.
- the fibre pulp fraction containing long fibres and has passed through the first screen is directed forward to a second screen 5, where the fraction is screened again according to length on the basis of the fibre length provided by way of example with freeness value "28".
- the fibre pulp fraction that has passed through the second screen 5 continues forward to be further processed and the longer fibre pulp fraction that is unable to pass through said screen is directed to a second refiner 6, which is preferably a refiner known per se.
- the fibre pulp obtained from the second refiner 6 is directed to a third screen 7, from where the fibre that is shorter than a particular length and that has passed through said screen, for example a fibre provided with freeness value "40" is directed forward for use, and correspondingly the fibre that is un- able to pass through the screen 7 is returned again to the second refiner 6 to be refined.
- the long fibre circulates the same loop until it is shortened to a desired size in such a manner that it passes through the third screen 7 and is then ready for use.
- the fibre pulp fraction that has passed through the second screen 5 is directed in accordance with the invention to a fine screen- ing 8, where a fine fibre pulp fraction is separated from the fibre pulp using a separate gap screen, for example fibres provided with a freeness value of at least "200" and correspondingly fibres that are longer than that are directed to a third refiner 9, which preferably is a refiner known per se.
- the fibre pulp fraction obtained from the output of the third refiner 9 contains high-quality fines and medium-sized fraction.
- the gap screen is either a single wire or twin wire structured screen. Such a screen can be used to efficiently remove a desired amount of fibre pulp of a particular length or shorter than that from the fibre pulp mixture, thus making the division between the fractions drastic and providing a desired ratio.
- the other screens are screens known as such either so that each screen represents a separate individual screen or that two or more screens form one multi-phase screen. Then again it is necessary to use a gap screen to separate short fibres.
- FIG. 2 schematically shows gap a twin wire structured screen 10.
- the gap screen preferably allows to screen the fibre pulp into two fractions in accordance with the invention.
- the gap screen comprises two movable wires 11 and 12 forming opposing screening surfaces that move through the gap screen and return as closed loops so as to form a convergent gap 13 within the gap screen in the direction of movement thereof.
- Supporting structures 14 and 15 are placed at the back of the wires 11 and 12, i.e. on the opposite side of the gap 13.
- the wires 11 and 12 are supported against the supporting structures 14 and 15, which naturally include openings for receiving water and the fine fibre material removed through the openings of the wires 11 and 12 and removing the same from the gap screen as schematically shown by arrows A.
- the wires 11 and 12 circulate around rollers 16 and 17 shown by way of example, which as such is known in the art.
- the sides of the gap 13 at the edges of the wires 11 and 12 are naturally closed, so that the fibre pulp mixture can be fed from a feeding channel 18 to the gap screen appropriately under pressure so as to remove the water and fine fibre material as desired.
- engines 19 and 20 which are connected to rotate one of the rollers 16, and 17 respectively, although in a normal situation the engines can be used to circulate each roller separately or a required amount of the rollers in a manner known as such in the art.
- the engines 19 and 20 are, in turn, connected to a control unit 21 included in the control means that allows to adjust, for example, the rotational speed of the engines so as to make the wires 11 and 12 move at a desired pace, which may deviate from the flowing rate of the fibre pulp through the screen and most preferably exceeds the flowing rate of the fibre pulp mixture.
- the fibre pulp mixture is fed from the feeding channel 18 to the gap screen, and the mixture thus flows through the gap 13 of the screen and exits from a narrower output port 22 of the gap 13, i.e. the smaller output port in cross section as regards the feeding opening, from the same side of the screen surfaces or the wires, to which the fibre pulp mixture was originally fed.
- a narrower output port 22 of the gap 13 i.e. the smaller output port in cross section as regards the feeding opening, from the same side of the screen surfaces or the wires, to which the fibre pulp mixture was originally fed.
- water is removed from the openings in the wires as well as short fibre material.
- the speed of motion in the wires can be adjusted in relation to the feeding rate of the fibre pulp mixture fed into the screen until the desired screening result is obtained.
- the output port 22 refers to the part in the screen, where water and fibres are no longer removed through the wire or wires and the remaining fibre pulp mixture is transferred from the screening phase to the following possible processing phases either directly or controlled by various conveyor means and control means such as wires and the like.
- one of the wires 11 and 12 can be replaced with a fixed wall surface for example, and a combination can preferably be employed in which the wire 11 moves towards an arched supporting structure 14 and the specific wall surface replaces the wire 12 moving directly within the area of the gap.
- the adjustment of the screening is mainly based on the fact that the gap screen adjusts the basis weight of the fibre pulp mixture including the long-fibred fibre material that flows through said gap screen.
- This can be implemented either by adjusting the consistency of the fibre pulp mixture to be fed into the screening or the velocity of the wires in relation to the feeding rate of the fibre pulp mixture.
- a diluted fibre pulp mixture is fed into the gap screen, more short fibres can be removed from the fibre pulp mixture than if a more consistent fibre pulp mixture is fed under similar circumstances.
- the velocity of the wires is increased in relation to the feeding rate of the fibre pulp mixture, then more short fibres can corre- spondingly be removed from the fibre pulp mixture.
- the separation value of the short fibres can be set at a desired level by adjusting the consistency of the feed and/or the velocity of the wires, so that the result obtained is distinctly different fibre pulp fractions, where the fraction that passes through the wires contains only very short fibres and correspondingly the fraction that flows through the gap of the gap screen contains longer fibres but very few short fibres.
- the velocity of the wires can be adjusted in various ways, so that it remains below the feeding rate of the fibre pulp, exceeds the feeding rate of the fibre pulp or equals the feeding rate of the fibre pulp. The choice of velocity is based on the properties of the fibre pulp mixture to be screened and on the desired screening result.
- Figure 3 schematically shows the result of the screening obtained by means of a gap screen shown in Figure 1 in accordance with the method of the invention.
- Figure 3 shows the screening result, or the portion of the fibres having different freeness values, in the fibre pulp mixture fed and correspondingly in the fraction that passes through the gap and exits through the output end of the gap screen.
- the portion of the fibres having different freeness values is presented in such a manner that the portion of different fibres in the fibre pulp mixture fed of the entire fibre pulp mixture is indicated by the black column and correspondingly the portion of fibres having a corresponding freeness value included in the fibre pulp fraction that exits through the output end is indicated by the white column.
- Figure 3 shows the portion of fibres having a freeness value 30 or greater than that is nearly 30%, the portion of fibres having a freeness value ranging from 50 to 30 is nearly 16%, the portion of fibres having a freeness value ranging from 100 to 50 is roughly 13%, the portion of fibres having a freeness value ranging from 200 to 100 is approximately 7% and the amount of very fine fibres having the freeness value 200 is 34%.
- the average freeness value of the fibre pulp mixture fed is 100.
- the fibre pulp that has completed the screening shows that the portion of coarse fibres has risen proportionally by nearly 50%, the portion of the following fibres approximately 25%, whereas the portion of the shorter fibres has increased only slightly.
- the extremely short fibres have, in turn, been removed to a great extent through the wires with the water, and the portion of the short fibres has therefore decreased proportionally by 60%.
- the extremely short fibre can efficiently be removed from the fibre pulp mixture to be screened and thus obtain a specific fibre pulp fraction that can be used for various purposes by mixing a desired amount thereof to the long fibres for example, in order to manufacture a particular type of fibre web provided with specific properties.
- the average freeness value of the fibre pulp mixture that passes through the gap screen has increased.
- Figure 3 shows that the amount of long fibres in the fraction that passes through the wires is substantially 0 and correspondingly the amount of short fibres in the long-fibred fraction that passes through the gap screen is very low. This indicates that the gap screen operates fairly efficiently and divides the fibre pulp mixture drastically into two fractions of distinctly varying lengths.
- An appropriate selection of wire structures in the gap screen allows to determine the applicable screening conditions for the fibres of vary- ing lengths in accordance with use and to adjust the efficiency of the screening by controlling the velocity and/or the consistency of the fibre pulp mixture.
