Definitions

  • waste paper refers here mixtures of waste paper and cardboard from private households or commercial enterprises.
  • waste paper-cardboard mixtures The sorting of the waste paper-cardboard mixtures is necessary so that the waste paper can be utilized as raw material in the papermaking industry by the paper industry.
  • the recycling rate of waste paper for this purpose is well above 70%. It can be observed that the relative proportion of cardboard in the wastepaper-cartonboard mixtures increases significantly, partly because of the decline in the amount of printed paper, in particular newspapers and magazines, due to the Internet but due to increasing internet purchases is increasing.
  • the basis of papermaking from waste paper is the deinking process, with which the printed ink is completely washed out of printed waste paper, so that the remaining paper fiber can be used to produce new paper.
  • the waste paper fraction formed by printed paper such as newspapers, magazines and the like, which can be used after the deinking process to raw material for the production of new paper, is therefore also referred to as deinking material.
  • waste paper-cardboard mixtures should be economical, which requires automatic sorting. These, in turn, should be used as well and consistently as possible in order to be able to work economically, which requires being able to drive the highest possible and consistent throughput, while at the same time being able to ensure the best possible quality of the deinking starting product.
  • the second disadvantage is that the quality control by means of near-infrared scanner or a camera system detects only the surface quality, so the composition of the material flow reproduces on the surface, so that the validity of the detection is deficient.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide an improved method and a device for carrying out this method in order to enable optimized control of an automatic sorting system.
  • the invention is based on the recognition that the moisture of the material to be sorted has a significant influence on the sorting behavior and that also has an insignificant effect on the quality of the sorting product.
  • the moisture content of wastepaper-cartonboard mixtures can vary greatly; the state of such mixtures ranges from completely dry to very wet. It depends on the seasons as well as on storage and transport conditions. Material stored in warehouses has less moisture, while outdoor stored material may be very humid due to humidity and may also be quite wet due to rain, for example when transported in open containers, or when the wind blows rain into partially opened collection containers.
  • the effect of moisture in the material to be sorted is both a change in weight, as paper and cardboard are naturally heavier due to moisture absorbed, as well as a large change in stiffness.
  • the greater weight of wet paperboard packaging makes blistering with air nozzles on the near-infrared separator less reliable, and the loss of rigidity With moist cardboard packaging, these can be impaled and removed less easily by a spiker.
  • the degree of moisture of the material to be sorted is already detected in or at the feed bin, ie before the material to be sorted enters the actual sorting plant.
  • the recorded moisture content of the material to be sorted serves as the basis for automated adjustment of the aggregates of the sorting system to optimize the sorting quality without loss of sorting speed and avoiding disturbances in the operation of the plant.
  • the moisture measurement can preferably be carried out by means of a microwave resonance method. Thus, a penetration depth of the measurement of about 5 cm can be achieved.
  • An advantage of an optimally working sorting system is a pre-screening of the feed material by using a coarse screen known per se in order to sort out large-area cardboard boxes.
  • This pre-screening of the delivery material through a coarse screen is carried out before the sorting material is fed into the charging bunker, where the moisture measurement takes place.
  • the moisturizing value of the feed material can be shifted slightly downwards, for example from 18% to 14%, since large-sized, high moisture content cardboard boxes are then no longer present in the material mixture entering the actual sorting plant.
  • the blowing pressure and / or the suction pressure for sucking airworthy paper can be adjusted according to the humidity, in order to take into account the higher weight of wet paper.
  • the blow-off pressure can be changed as a function of the moisture, so that the higher the humidity, the higher the blow-off pressure, so that heavier cardboard boxes with consistent parabola are discharged due to the moisture content can.
  • the Ausblasimpulsdauer can be adapted to the humidity, so that it is slightly longer at higher humidity.
  • the velocities of the drum and the accelerator belt leading to the Spiker can be reduced slightly at higher humidity, so that there is less vibration and struck cardboard can not detach from the spike due to vibration.
  • an apex adjustment can be made vertically and / or horizontally on the near-infrared separator to help keep the ejection parabola of the differently heavy and differently stiff material depending on the degree of moisture substantially constant and thus maintain the quality of separation.
  • the homogeneity of the material mixture entering the feed bunker is improved because of the pre-separation of large cardboard boxes, thereby making the moisture measurement more accurate; This means that the measured values recorded by the individual sensors correspond more exactly to the average moisture content of the sorted material.
  • Vorabsiebung also has the advantage that disturbances of the sorting system are avoided by congestion, as they occur again and again when a screening of large cardboard boxes only after abandonment of the material mixture from the hopper on the actual sorting, especially the danger of congestion with increasing humidity of the Material and thus decreasing stiffness of cardboard packaging increases significantly.
  • the drawing shows in the form of a block diagram a waste paper sorting system with a controller according to the invention by integrated humidity measurement.
  • a task bunker 1 conveys the material mixture to be sorted to the actual sorting system, which has a conventional sequence of units in the embodiment.
  • a pre-screening unit 2 Upstream of the feed bunker 1 is a pre-screening unit 2, which sifts large-area cardboard from the feed material, so that the remaining paper-cardboard waste mixture no longer contains large-area cardboard.
  • the material passing from this presoiling unit 2 into the receiving bunker 1 is therefore more homogeneous in terms of particle size and has a more uniform moisture content, after the cardboard material known to be particularly moisture-wicking has been deposited in the area of the large-area cardboard.
  • the actual sorting system Downstream of the task bunker 1 is the actual sorting system, which may comprise several units, of which only a few are shown here by way of example.
  • a sieve unit 3 a near-infrared separator unit 4 and a spike unit 5 are shown.
  • a collecting container 6 At the end of the system is a collecting container 6, which collects the deinking material as a sorting product.
  • the invention relates neither to the specific units used, nor to the number of units, nor to the order of aggregates in the course of the sorting system, but rather to the humidity-dependent control of the units to optimize their operation ,
  • the measurement of the moisture is preferably carried out in the feed hopper 1, on whose inner wall a plurality of sensors 7 are distributed both on the circumference and in different height positions can be arranged. Alternatively (not shown), the moisture measurement can also take place at the discharge directly behind the hopper 1.
  • a controller 8 controls the system as a function of the humidity measured by the sensors 7 of the sorted material. Via output lines 9, the individual units and possibly also the intermediate transport areas are controlled in the manner described above to optimally adjust their operation or function depending on the moisture content of the material to be sorted, so that an optimal sorting results with the greatest possible system throughput. The is shown by indicated control lines 9 from the controller 8 to the units and the intervening transport units (belts).
