Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method of mixing flows with each other in a papermaking process, comprising the features defined in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention further relates to a mixer for mixing flows in a papermaking process, comprising the features defined in the preamble of claim 5.
  • the invention further relates to feeding equipment of a head box of a paper machine, comprising the mixer according to the invention.
  • a mixer comprising the structural features defined in the preamble of claim 5 is disclosed in document JP-A-07204480 .
  • This document also discloses a method of mixing two flows comprising the method steps summarized in the preamble of claim 1, wherein, however, this document does not disclose that the method of mixing two flows is performed in a papermaking process.
  • a mixer for mixing flows comprising the structural features defined in the preamble of claim 5 and a method of mixing two flows comprising the method steps summarized in the preamble of claim 1 is also known from document US-A-4 123 800 and document US-A-3 219 483 , wherein the mixer and the method of mixing according to document US-A-4 123 800 are primarily intended for mixing a liquid fertilizer into a carrier stream of a liquid such as water, and wherein the mixer and the method of mixing according to document US-A-3 219 483 are intended for being used for the continuous gelatinization of starch used in the papermaking industry. It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved method of mixing flows in a papermaking process and a corresponding improved mixer. According to the invention, this object is achieved by the method defined in claim 1 and by the mixer defined in claim 5.
  • the first flow of the papermaking process is conveyed in a tube which is provided with one or more form parts arranged on the inner periphery of the tube.
  • the form parts comprise form part surfaces which extend a predetermined distance from the inner periphery of the tube towards the middle of the tube. In the following, these form part surfaces are called the control surfaces.
  • the form parts influence the flow flowing in the tube and generate turbulence in the flow.
  • the zone that begins in the flowing direction after the nearest process component preceding the form part, i.e. after a pump or screen, for instance, and that ends after the form parts at the point where the mixing effect of the turbulence generated by the form parts has essentially weakened is in this description and the claims called the mixing zone of the tube.
  • the inner periphery of the tube and the control surfaces of the form parts define together the inner surface of the tube in the mixing zone, i.e. the surface that contacts the flow flowing through the mixing zone.
  • the at least one form part comprises one or more feed openings on the inner surface of the tube, which openings are in connection with the feed channels outside the tube. From said feed openings, at least one second flow is fed into the first flow flowing in the tube.
  • the form parts function as mechanical mixing members, and the turbulence generated by them mixes the flows efficiently with each other. Owing to the form parts, the penetration of the second flow into the first flow is improved. The rate of the flow flowing through the mixing zone can be kept relatively slow, and yet, good mixing can be achieved.
  • the second flow is fed from the outside of the tube into the first flow flowing in the tube.
  • the form parts allow the flow to be fed closer to the middle of the flow flowing in the tube, which makes the mixing of the flows more efficient. Since the feed opening is at the same level as the control surface of the form part, and further, since the form part is designed to remain easily clean, the form part and the feed opening arranged in it do not gather impurities.
  • the first flow is a mixture of liquid and solid matter used in papermaking, for example a mixture of fibers and water
  • the second flow is paper making chemical, such as a retention agent.
  • the mixer is arranged in the feeder line headed for the head box of a paper machine, after a mechanical screen.
  • the first component of a two-component retention agent can at first be fed via feed openings in the mixing zone into the first flow flowing in the tube, and the flocs made by the first component are formed as desired by means of the form parts after the feeding point, after which the second retention agent component is fed either from the point where the form parts form the flocs as desired or thereafter.
  • the shear force required for the formation of the flocs as desired are achieved by means of the form parts, and not with mechanical screens, as previously.
  • the rejecting effect of screens and the degradation of the chemical in the screen can be avoided, and in this the consumption of expensive retention agents can be reduced.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic and perspective view of a tube mixer
  • Figures 2 to 4 show a schematic view of mixers according to the invention, seen from the side and being cut out;
  • Figure 5 shows a schematic view of a mixer according to the invention, seen from the longitudinal direction and as a cross-section;
  • Figures 6a to 6c show a schematic view of applications according to the invention.
  • Figure 7 further shows a schematic view of an application according to the invention, seen from the side and being cut out.
  • Figure 1 shows the basic structure of a tube mixer without equipment relating to the feed of an additive or the like.
  • the mixer comprises a tube 1, through which a first flow V 1 is conveyed; the flow can be a mixture of liquid and solid matter, such as a mixture of fiber and water, or it can be mere liquid.
  • Form parts 4a to 4c are arranged on the inner periphery 3 of the tube 1, the cross-section of the tube being wave-like at this point.
  • the form parts protrude from the inner periphery of the tube and form control surfaces 5, by means of which the flow V 1 is controlled and turbulence is generated in the flow.
  • the number, form and dimensioning of the form parts and their positions relative to each other are designed in a case-specific manner.
  • the inner periphery 3 of the tube there are at least three form parts arranged on the inner periphery 3 of the tube at even distances from each other and in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the tube substantially at the same point.
  • One preferred shape of form parts is indicated in Figure 1 . Seen from the direction of flow, the area of the wedge-shaped form parts 4b and 4c is at first approximately zero, because its front edge is a line-like surface in the direction of the periphery. When proceeding towards the direction of flow, the line-like surface grows in the direction of the radius into a cross-section in the form of a sector of a circle.
  • the form part begins to diminish in the direction of the periphery, and the rear edge of the form part becomes line-like again.
  • the solids in the flow such as fibers
  • the form parts can also be arranged in the way opposite to what is shown in Figure 1 in respect of the form parts 4b and 4c, i.e in such a way that the sharp edge of the radius is directed forwards. Combining a desired number of form parts having an appropriate shape and dimensioning at the mixing point of the tube allows an appropriate mixer to be tailored for each purpose.
  • FIG. 2 shows a preferred application of the invention.
  • the form parts 4a to 4b are here provided with a transverse boring 6.
  • the first end of the boring is in connection with the feed channel of the additive component or another feed channel 7 outside the tube 1, and at the second end of the boring 6 there is a feed opening 8, which is in connection with the space limited by the tube 1.
  • the second flow V 2 can be fed from the feed channel 7 into the first flow V 1 , whereby the flows mix with each other owing to the turbulence caused by the form parts.
  • the second flow V 2 can be liquid or a mixture of liquid and solid matter.
  • the second flow V 2 is for example a mixture of water and fiber pulp, a papermaking chemical, such as a retention or coloring agent, or it may be for example a filler agent, dilution water or a paper machine filtrate, e.g. clear or cloudy water. Further, the second flow may be for example wire water or head box pulp. Furthermore, the second flow may be a combination of an appropriate gas and solid matter.
  • a nozzle 9 which feeds the second flow V 2 into the first flow V 1 in the desired manner.
  • the nozzle allows control of the flow rate of the flow V 2 and thus also the penetration into the first flow V 1 .
  • the nozzle allows generation of turbulence in the second flow to be fed, which improves the mixing of the flows with each other.
  • the additive can be fed together with the feed water through the nozzle, whereby the dosing of the additive can be affected by the control of the flow and pressure of the feed water.
  • Figures 2 and 3 show the mixing zone S of the tube, where one or more second flows V 2 is/are mixed into the first flow V 1 , the second flow being led from the feed channel 7 outside the tube 1.
  • the mixing zone S can begin as early as before the front edge of the first form part.
  • the mixing zone begins as early as after the nearest process component 18 preceding the form part in the flowing direction, for instance a pump or screen, because in this case, too, the form part can contribute to the uniform distribution of the additive.
  • the mixing part S ends after the form parts at the point where the mixing effect of the turbulence generated by the form parts has substantially weakened.
  • the diameter of the tube was 350 mm, the greatest dimension of the form part in the radial dimension of the tube was 120 mm, and the length of the form part in the direction of the axis of the tube was 200 mm.
  • Pulp having the flow rate of 3m/s in the tube was conveyed in the tube to the head box of a paper machine.
  • the mixing turbulence weakened at a distance of 1,100 mm from the rear edge of the form part.
  • the form parts 4a and 4b are hollow, whereby one or more injection tubes 10 is/are conveyed through at least some of the form parts, along which injection tubes the second flow V 2 is fed from the feed channel 7 into the inside of the tube 1.
  • the outermost ends of the injection tubes 10 thus form a feed opening 8, which is at substantially the same level as the outer surface of the form part in such a way that no stagnation points gathering impurity are brought about in the form part.
  • the outermost end of the injection tube can be provided with an appropriate nozzle. Further, additives or other flows can be fed into the first flow V 1 even before the form parts 4a and 4b.
  • nozzles 11 arranged on the inner periphery of the tube 1 can be used, or alternatively, second form parts 12a and 12b are arranged on the inner periphery of the tube 1, through which parts the additive component can also be fed. Also the second form parts 12a, 12b achieve turbulence in the flow V 1 and improve the mixing.
  • the solution according to Figure 3 enables the use of two-component additives.
  • the first additive component L 1 is fed before the form parts 4a, 4b, the second additive component L 2 being fed later through the form parts 4a, 4b and/or after the form parts for instance via a nozzle 30. This enables the feed of both components of the two-component retention agent only after the machine screen.
  • the first retention agent component forms what are called flocs, which are degraded by means of the shear force provided by the form parts 4a, 4b of the mixer.
  • the second retention agent component is fed via the feed openings 8 in the form parts and/or via the nozzle 30, which component re-forms the flocs as desired.
  • the feed openings can be directed in a desired manner, either perpendicularly relative to the first flow,or upstream or downstream, depending on the situation.
  • Figure 4 shows a mixer having hollow form parts 4a, 4b.
  • an additive component is fed from the feed channel 7 into the hollow space 13 of the form parts, which additive component is dosed into the space limited by the tube 1 through one or more feed openings 8 formed on the control surface 5 of the form part.
  • the number, form and position of feed openings can be selected according to the situation.
  • the feed openings can be formed on the control surface of the form part in accordance with a predetermined pattern.
  • Figure 5 shows a mixer according to the invention, seen from the end of the tube 1.
  • the form parts 4a to 4d have a curved control surface 5.
  • a different flow is conveyed into the inside of the tube 1. Further, a flow can be fed into the first flow through one or more feed openings 40 positioned between the form parts.
  • Figure 6a shows an application according to the invention.
  • a pulp component is fed with a pump 16 along the primary line 17 to the machine screen 18, after which the pulp component is conveyed in the tube 1 to the head box 50 of the paper machine.
  • the mixing zone S begins after the nearest process component preceding the head box, i.e. after the screen 18.
  • Form parts have been arranged in the tube portion between the screen 18 and the head box 50, and additive flows required are supplied to the mixing zone in the manner according to the invention.
  • the screen 18 can be a screen structure known per se , such as a slotted basket screen or hole basket screen.
  • the pulp line is divided into at least two secondary lines 19 after the screen 18, along which the pulp component is conveyed to the head box of a wire section functioning with a separate web arrangement of the paper machine, i.e. to a multilayer head box 20, which doses a web having two or several layers to the wire section of the paper machine.
  • At least one of the secondary lines 19 comprises a mixer 21 according to the invention, which mixer enables for instance the feed of a two-component retention agent after the machine screen. The mixing of each secondary line and the addition of additives can be controlled separately.
  • additives can be fed from one or more smaller feed conduits, whereby in the paper machine, the variation of the web profile in the machine direction and cross-direction is reduced. In other words, the web profile is thus more even and there is not so much need for fixing.
  • the scale of mixing is reduced in the way described above, the mixing result is better.
  • the formation i.e. the small-scale basis weight variation is improved, in other words the formation reading is reduced.
  • the feed point of the retention agent for example, can be positioned closer to the head box.
  • chemicals can be saved, because the effect of some retention agents weakens as the effective time increases.
  • the cross-machine profile of the filling agent cannot be fixed in the paper machine. Weak or uneven feed of retention agent results in a poor filling agent profile.
  • the feed of the retention agent can be improved by means of the invention, whereby the filling agent retention is more even, and therefore also the filling agent profile is more even.
  • the upper embodiment of Figure 7 illustrates a mixer in which a mixture of two different components L 1 and L 2 is fed through the form part 4.
  • some filling agent or fiber pulp can be fed via the first feed channel 7, and for example some chemical can be fed via the second feed channel 31, whereby the components are mixed with each other before the mixture formed thereof is dosed into the flow V 1 .
  • the first component to be mixed is a mixture of liquid and solid matter, for example a paper machine filtrate
  • the second component is a retention agent
  • the time of the pre-mixing of said components is fixed in such a way that the retention agent does not have time to react in an undesired way with the solid matter particles in the first component.
  • a solution of this kind enables dilution of a retention agent and other chemicals also with impure liquids containing solid matter before they are fed into the first flow.
  • the mixer comprises three successive form parts in the longitudinal direction of the tube.
  • the additive L 1 is fed through the first form part 12 and a second additive L 2 is fed through the third form part 32.
  • the second, i.e. the middlemost, form part 4 functions as a static mixing member.
  • a solution of this kind is well applicable to the dosing of two-component chemicals.
  • the shape of the form part can be selected according to the need.
  • the form part can thus be wedge-shaped or pyramid-shaped, a part comprising curved surfaces, or otherwise appropriately designed. What is essential is that the form part comprises control surfaces which achieve a sufficient turbulence in the pulp flow for the purpose of mixing. In addition, it is essential that the form parts remain clean in the flow of pulp components.
  • the form parts can be arranged to be adjustable, whereby their position relative to the tube (on the periphery of the tube and in the longitudinal direction of the tube) and/or their shape can be adjusted to achieve the desired mixing.
  • the control surfaces of the form parts can be controlled to extend a desired distance from the periphery of the tube towards the inner part of the periphery of the tube, for example.
