Description
Die Erfindung betrifft Ausrüstungen zur Trennung von Flüssigkeiten und Feststoffen in Zentrifugen, insbesondere Tellerseparatoren mit selbsttätigem Austrag. Die Erfindung betrifft insbesondere einen Pasten-Umlenkring mit ringförmiger Prallwand für eine selbstaustragende Zentrifuge und die selbstaustragende Zentrifuge.The invention relates to equipment for the separation of liquids and solids in centrifuges, in particular Tellerseparatoren with automatic discharge. The invention particularly relates to a paste deflecting ring with an annular baffle for a self-discharging centrifuge and the self-discharging centrifuge.
Tellerseparatoren sind Zentrifugen, ausgerüstet mit einem zentralen Zulauf für die Suspension, in der Trommel befindlichen konischen Tellern, welche durch die vorhandene Fliehkraft und die kurzen Sedimentationswege als Abscheider für feine Partikeln dienen. Die abgeschiedenen Partikeln gleiten entlang der Teller in den Feststoffsammelraum zum größten Durchmesser der Trommel hin. Die geklärte Flüssigkeit wird über ein Überlaufwehr drucklos oder mittels eines als Pumpenlaufrad ausgebildeten sogen. Greifers unter Druck abgeführt.Tellerseparatoren are centrifuges, equipped with a central inlet for the suspension, located in the drum conical plates, which are used by the existing centrifugal force and the short sedimentation as a separator for fine particles. The deposited particles slide along the plates into the solids collection space toward the largest diameter of the drum. The clarified liquid is depressurized via an overflow weir or by means of a trained as a pump impeller so-called. Gripper dissipated under pressure.
Für geringe Feststoffgehalte sind Tellerseparatoren mit geschlossenerTrommel im Einsatz, welche von Hand ausgeräumt werden müssen. Für höhere Feststoffgehalte sind die Trommeln mit einem Entleersystem, ausgerüstet, welches es gestattet, den gesamten Trommelinhalt mit Feststoff und Flüssigkeit als Schlamm auszutragen.For low solids contents, closed drum disk separators are in use which must be manually cleared. For higher solids contents, the drums are equipped with an emptying system which allows the entire contents of the drum to be discharged as solids and liquid as sludge.
Es sind Tellerseparatoren mit stehender oder hängender Trommel bekannt.There are Tellerseparatoren with upright or hanging drum known.
Aus der deutschen Offenlegungsschrift
Dies hat den Nachteil, dass die ausgeschleuderten Feststoffe im Bereich der Ausschleuderzone hängen bleiben können und ein zentrales Sammeln der Feststoffe nicht möglich ist.This has the disadvantage that the ejected solids can get stuck in the discharge zone and central collection of the solids is not possible.
Bekannt ist auch, dass bei gut fließenden Feststoffpasten durch Realisierung einer äußerst kurzen Trommelöffnungszeit sog. Teilentschlammungen möglich sind, die eine höhere Feststoffkonzentration in der ausgetragenen Paste zulassen.It is also known that with well-flowing solid pastes by realization of an extremely short drum opening time so-called. Partial sludges are possible, which allow a higher solids concentration in the discharged paste.

In letzter Zeit wurde versucht, durch Abziehen des flüssigen Anteils in der Trommel vor der Entleerung eine hochkonzentrierte Paste zu erzeugen und diese durch einen größeren als bisher üblichen steuerbaren Spalt auszutragen.Recently, it has been attempted to produce a highly concentrated paste by stripping off the liquid portion in the drum prior to emptying and discharging it through a larger controllable gap than heretofore.
Die Erfindung setzt nunmehr bei der Aufhabe an eine selbstaustragende Zentrifuge für die verfahrenstechnische Behandlung hochkonzentrierter Pasten mit einer hängenden Trommel mit zwei oder mehr Austragsschlitzen zu schaffen, welche eine schonende Umlenkung des aus dem Austragsschlitz ausgeschleuderten Feststoffes in einen Auffangbehälter der Zentrifuge ermöglicht.The invention now relies on the application to a self-discharging centrifuge for the processing of highly concentrated pastes with a hanging drum with two or more discharge slots, which allows a gentle deflection of the ejected from the discharge slot solid into a receptacle of the centrifuge.
Systembedingt geschieht der Pastenaustrag unter Zentrifugalbeschleunigung in horizontaler Richtung auf einem kreisförmigen Umfang und könnte in einem ringförmigen Behälter aufgefangen werden. Wünschenswert ist allerdings ein Sammeln der Paste in einem unter der Trommel befindlichen Behälter. Dies ist vorzugsweise bei einer Zentrifugenausführung mit hängender Trommel möglich. Die Paste muss dann von horizontaler Richtung nach unten in den Behälter umgelenkt werden.Due to the system, the paste discharge takes place under centrifugal acceleration in the horizontal direction on a circular circumference and could be collected in an annular container. However, it is desirable to collect the paste in a container located under the drum. This is preferably possible with a centrifuge version with a hanging drum. The paste must then be diverted from the horizontal direction down into the container.
Die Erfindung läst die Aufgabe durch den Gegenstend des Anspruchs 1, mit einem Pastenumlenkring und einem damit verbundenen oder lösbaren Pastenbehälter, welcher in der Lage ist, die Paste aus mehreren Trommelentleerungen aufzunehmen. Dieser Ring ist so gestaltet, dass eine Umlenkung mit möglichst geringen Produktverlusten verbunden ist.The invention achieves the object by the article of claim 1, comprising a paste deflecting ring and a connected or detachable paste container which is capable of receiving the paste from a plurality of drum emptying. This ring is designed so that a deflection is associated with the lowest possible product losses.
Der Umlenkring ist mit einer Mantelkühlung ausgebildet. Der Kühlmantel ist z.B. eine Doppelwand auf dem äußeren Umfang des Umlenkringes, die von einem Wärmetauschermedium dunchströmt werden kann.The deflection ring is formed with a jacket cooling. The cooling jacket is e.g. a double wall on the outer circumference of the Umlenkringes, which can be dunchströmt by a heat exchange medium.
Damit wird eine schonende und insbesondere scherungsarme Umlenkung des aus dem Austragsschlitz ausgeschleuderten Feststoffes in den Auffangbehälter der Zentrifuge ermöglicht.Thus, a gentle and, in particular, low-shear deflection of the ejected from the discharge slot solid in the collection container of the centrifuge is possible.
Der Umlenkring ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Innenkontur der Prall wand unmittelbar unterhalb der Aufprallfläche, insbesondere über einen beliebigen Längsschnitt des Umlenkrings gesehen, kreisförmig oder parabelförmig ausgebildet ist.The deflecting ring is characterized in that the inner contour of the baffle wall is formed directly below the impact surface, in particular over any longitudinal section of the deflecting ring, circular or parabolic.
Hiermit wird die Umlenkung noch weiter produktschonend ausgebildet und die Scherung weiter herabgesetzt.Hereby, the deflection is made even more gentle on the product and further reduces the shear.
Der Umlenkring ist so ausgebildet, dass die Prallwand im Bereich unterhalb des Austragsschlitzes eine gekrümmte Innenkontur, im geometrischen Längsschnitt gesehen, mit einem Krümmungsradius von > 20 mm, bevorzugt von 30 bis 50 mm hat.The deflection ring is designed so that the baffle wall in the area below of the discharge slot has a curved inner contour, seen in geometric longitudinal section, with a radius of curvature of> 20 mm, preferably from 30 to 50 mm.
Letztere gekrümmte Wandfläche kann auch entsprechend einer Kurve mit über die Verlaufstrecke veränderlichem Radius gestaltet sein.The latter curved wall surface can also be designed according to a curve with a variable radius over the course of travel.
Die Prallwand des Umlenkringes weist in einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführung im Bereich oberhalb der Öffnungsbreite des Austragsschlitzes einen Anstellwinkel y zur Horizontalen von 3 bis 30°, bevorzugt von 5 bis 15° auf.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the baffle wall of the deflection ring has an angle of attack y to the horizontal of 3 to 30 °, preferably 5 to 15 °, in the region above the opening width of the discharge slot.
Eine bevorzugte Variante des Umlenkringes ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Tangente der Innenkontur der Prallfläche im Bereich unterhalb der Umlenkkontur des Umlenkrings gegenüber der Vertikalen im geometrischen Längsschnitt gesehen einen Anstellwinkel 3 bis 30°, bevorzugt von 5 bis 15°, aufweist. Die Vertikale ist hierbei parallel zur Rotationsachse der Trommel.A preferred variant of the deflection ring is characterized in that the tangent of the inner contour of the baffle surface in the region below the deflection contour of the deflection ring relative to the vertical in the geometric longitudinal section seen an angle of
Damit wird eine besonders günstige Führung des ausgeschleuderten Produktes in die Richtung der Mitte des Auffangbehälters erreicht.Thus, a particularly favorable guidance of the centrifuged product is achieved in the direction of the center of the collecting container.
Der Umlenkring weist in einer bevorzugten Variante an seinem unteren Ende eine Abrisskante auf, die gegebenenfalls hinterschnitten ist.The deflection ring has in a preferred variant at its lower end a tear-off edge, which is optionally undercut.
Der Umlenkring ist insbesondere einstückig mit einem Auffangbehälter oder besonders bevorzugt trennbar mit dem Auffangbehälter der Zentrifuge verbunden.The deflecting ring is in particular connected in one piece with a collecting container or particularly preferably separably connected to the collecting container of the centrifuge.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die produktberührte Oberfläche des Umlenkrings mit einer gleitfähigen Beschichtung, insbesondere aus PTFE oder Metalllegierungen versehen.In a preferred embodiment, the product-contacting surface of the deflecting ring is provided with a lubricious coating, in particular made of PTFE or metal alloys.
In einer weiteren bevorzugten Variante weist der Umlenkring eine oder mehrere Düsen für das Einsprühen von Flüssig-Stickstoff auf.In a further preferred variant, the deflection ring has one or more nozzles for the injection of liquid nitrogen.
Diese Düsen sind insbesondere auf dem Umfang des Umlenkringes unterhalb der Aufprallfläche, die derÖffnungsbreite des Austragsschlitzes entspricht, verteilt angebracht.These nozzles are in particular distributed on the circumference of the deflection ring below the impact surface, which corresponds to the opening width of the discharge slot.
Der Auffangbehälter ist bevorzugt zylindrisch nach oder nach unten konisch verengend ausgestaltet.The collecting container is preferably configured cylindrically conically narrowing downwards or downwards.
Die konische Verengung des Auffangbehälters erleichtert den Austrag von z.B. gefrorenem Produkt aus dem Behälter. Die Oberkante des Behälters ist insbesondere so ausgelegt, dass unterhalb der bevorzugt angebrachten Abrisskante des Umlenkringes eine verwirbelungsarme Strömung entsteht.The conical constriction of the collecting container facilitates the discharge of e.g. frozen product from the container. The upper edge of the container is in particular designed so that below the preferably attached spoiler lip of the deflection ring results in a low-flow turbulence.
Die produktberührten Innenflächen des Auffangbehälters sind ebenfalls in einer bevorzugten Ausführung mit einer gleitfähigen Beschichtung, insbesondere aus PTFE oder Metalllegierungen versehen.The product-contacting inner surfaces of the collecting container are also provided in a preferred embodiment with a lubricious coating, in particular of PTFE or metal alloys.
In den Auffangbehälter ist besonders bevorzugt ein Beutel aus flexiblem Material eingelegt, der insbesondere mittels Unterdruck an den Behälterwänden fixierbar ist.In the collecting container, a bag of flexible material is particularly preferably inserted, which can be fixed in particular by means of negative pressure to the container walls.
Geeignete Materialien für den Beutel sind alle Folienkunststoffe, insbesondere Polypropylen, Polyethylen, Polyvinylchlorid.Suitable materials for the bag are all film plastics, in particular polypropylene, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride.
Der Auffangbehälter ist in einer bevorzugten weiteren Form der Zentrifuge mit einerTemperiereinrichtung, insbesondere mit einer Mantelkühlung ausgebildet.The collecting container is formed in a preferred further form of the centrifuge with a tempering device, in particular with a jacket cooling.
Der Auffangbehälter weist bevorzugt zusätzlich Mittel für einen Transport, insbesondere mittels Flurförder-Einrichtungen auf.The collecting container preferably additionally has means for transport, in particular by means of conveyor devices.
Die obere Öffnung des Auffangbehälters ist besonders bevorzugt als Teilflansch ausgebildet.The upper opening of the collecting container is particularly preferably designed as a partial flange.
Dadurch ist der Auffangbehälter z.B. mit einem Deckel verschließbar und so ausgebildet, dass ein Andocken an andere verfahrenstechnische Vorrichtungen, insbesondere an einen Lösekessel möglich ist.As a result, the receptacle is e.g. closed with a lid and designed so that docking with other procedural devices, in particular to a dissolving vessel is possible.
Für den Einsatz im biotechnologischen Bereich, z.B. bei der Separierung von Pasten oder Klärung von Flüssigkeiten in der Humanblut-Plasma-Fraktionierung ist der Auffangbehälter mantelkühlbar ausgeführt.For use in the biotechnological field, e.g. in the separation of pastes or clarification of liquids in the human blood plasma fractionation, the collecting container is designed jacket cooling.
Zur Verbesserung der Kühlwirkung können eine oder mehrere Düsen angebracht sein, durch welche Flüssigstickstoff in den Gasraum in der Nähe der rotierenden Trommel eingebracht werden kann, um die Erwärmung des Austragsraums durch Luftreibung zu unterdrücken.To improve the cooling effect, one or more nozzles may be mounted, through which liquid nitrogen can be introduced into the gas space in the vicinity of the rotating drum in order to suppress the heating of the discharge space by air friction.
Es sind Tellerseparatoren bekannt, die durch Cleaning-In-Place automatisch gereinigt werden können. Hierzu wird der Separator während bestimmterz.T. besonderer Betriebszustände mit verschiedenen Reinigungsflüssigkeiten gespült. Zur Unterstützung der Reinigung können spezielle CIP-Düsen angebrachtwerden. Beim Design der Bauteile und der Dichtungen zwischen den Bauteilen ist auf eine gute Zugänglichkeit bei der Reinigung zu achten.There are plate separators known that can be cleaned automatically by Cleaning-In-Place. For this purpose, the separator during certainz.T. special operating conditions rinsed with various cleaning fluids. To assist cleaning special CIP nozzles can be attached. When designing the components and the seals between the components, ensure good accessibility during cleaning.
Der Behälter kann aus metallischen oder nicht metallischen Werkstoffen ausgeführt sein. Der Behälter kann lösbar oder unlösbar in einem Gestell angeordnet sein, welches mittels Flurförderfahrzeugen transportiert oder stapelbar ist.The container may be made of metallic or non-metallic materials. The container can be arranged detachably or non-detachably in a frame which is transported or stackable by means of industrial trucks.
Der Behälter kann mit einem Deckel versehen oder mit einem automatischen Öffnungs-Schieber ausgerüstet und zur Beschickung von Lösekesseln geeignet sein.The container can be provided with a lid or equipped with an automatic opening slide and be suitable for loading dissolving boilers.
Der Behälter kann mit einer Anmaisch- oder Aufschmelzvorrichtung ausgerüstet werden, die es gestattet den Inhalt als fließfähige Suspension in den Lösekessel zu fördern.The container can be equipped with a mashing or melting device, which allows the content to be conveyed as a flowable suspension in the dissolving vessel.
Wie auch der Umlenkring kann auch der Behälter z.B. für den Einsatz in der BioTechnologie mantelkühlbar ausgerüstet sein.Like the diverter ring, the container may also be e.g. be equipped with jacket cooling for use in biotechnology.
