Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the production of wood-based panels, in particular chipboard or fiberboard.
- Wood-based panels such as chipboard or wood fiber boards, which in the present case are always medium or high density wood fiber boards (MDF / HDF) are understood to be the basis of many everyday objects, such as furniture or coverings for wall, floor or ceiling.
- MDF / HDF medium or high density wood fiber boards
- VOCs volatile organic compounds
- chipboard and wood fiber boards are used uncoated on a larger scale (eg as tongue and groove panels, interior fittings, etc.).
- the use of lightweight and super light wood fiber boards is often done without coating.
- AgBB scheme by assuming emissions of a space loading of 1 m 2 / m 3 and a defined air change (0.5 / h).
- air exchange of 0.5 / h is often well below in modern low-energy houses. This, in combination, can lead to higher room concentrations of wood constituents.
- Volatile organic compounds also called VOCs, include volatile organic compounds that are light in weight evaporate or already present at lower temperatures, such as room temperature as a gas.
- the volatile organic compounds VOC are either already present in the wood material and are released during workup from this or they are formed according to the current state of knowledge by the degradation of unsaturated fatty acids, which in turn are decomposition products of wood.
- Typical conversion products that occur during processing are, for example, higher aldehydes or organic acids.
- Organic acids are produced in particular as cleavage products of the wood constituents cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin, alkanoic acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid, hexanoic acid or aromatic acids preferably being formed.
- Aldehydes will be formed during the hydrolytic workup from the basic building blocks of cellulose or hemicellulose.
- the aldehyde furfural is formed from mono- and disaccharides of cellulose or hemicellulose, while aromatic aldehydes can be liberated during the partial hydrolytic exclusion of lignin.
- Other released aldehydes include i.a. the higher aldehydes hexanal, pentanal or octanal.

- Torrefaction is a thermal treatment process in which the material to be torrefied is typically heated at atmospheric pressure in an oxygen-free gas atmosphere.
- the treatment of biomass without air access leads to a pyrolytic decomposition and drying.
- the process is carried out at relatively low temperatures of 250 to 300 ° C for pyrolysis.
- the aim is, as in the case of coking, to increase the mass and volume-related energy density and thus the calorific value of the raw material, to increase transportability or to reduce the expense of subsequent biomass milling.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffplatten, insbesondere Holzspanplatten oder Holzfaserplatten.The present invention relates to a process for the production of wood-based panels, in particular chipboard or fiberboard.
Holzwerkstoffplatten, wie Holzspanplatten oder Holzfaserplatten, wobei vorliegend unter Holzfaserplatten immer mittel- oder hochdichte Holzfaserplatten (MDF/HDF) zu verstehen sind, bilden die Basis vieler Gegenstände des täglichen Lebens, beispielsweise von Möbeln oder Belägen für Wand, Boden oder Decke. Neben einigen technologischen Parametern, die die Festigkeit der Platten bei mechanischer Belastung betreffen, ist besonders die Emission aus den Produkten ein zunehmend wichtiges Qualitätskriterium.Wood-based panels, such as chipboard or wood fiber boards, which in the present case are always medium or high density wood fiber boards (MDF / HDF) are understood to be the basis of many everyday objects, such as furniture or coverings for wall, floor or ceiling. In addition to some technological parameters that affect the strength of the panels under mechanical stress, emission from the products is becoming an increasingly important quality criterion.
Üblicherweise stellen die Emissionen, insbesondere von flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen (VOCs), bei einer Holzspanplatte oder Holzfaserplatte nur ein untergeordnetes Problem dar, weil bei vielen Produkten die Oberfläche mit dekorativen Beschichtungen veredelt wird. Allerdings gibt es auch Anwendungen bei denen Holzspanplatten und Holzfaserplatten unbeschichtet in größerem Maßstab eingesetzt werden (z.B. als Nut- und Federplatten, im Innenausbau usw.). Auch der Einsatz von leichten und superleichten Holzfaserplatten erfolgt oft ohne Beschichtung. Dabei ist ein kritischer Aspekt, dass bei Emissionen häufig auf das sogenannte AgBB-Schema Bezug genommen wird, indem bei der Bestimmung von Emissionen von einer Raumbeladung von 1 m2/m3 und einem definierten Luftwechsel (0,5/h) ausgegangen wird. Durch Wand-, und Deckenverkleidungen, Bodenbeläge und Möbel aus MDF/HDF-Holzfaserplatten können diese Raumbeladungen aber deutlich überschritten werden. Auch der Luftwechsel von 0,5/h wird in modernen Niedrigenergie-Häusern häufig deutlich unterschritten. Dies kann in Kombination zu höheren Raumkonzentrationen an Holzinhaltsstoffen führen.Typically, emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from a particleboard or fiberboard are only a minor problem because many products have the surface refined with decorative coatings. However, there are also applications in which chipboard and wood fiber boards are used uncoated on a larger scale (eg as tongue and groove panels, interior fittings, etc.). The use of lightweight and super light wood fiber boards is often done without coating. It is a critical aspect that emissions are often referred to as the so-called AgBB scheme by assuming emissions of a space loading of 1 m 2 / m 3 and a defined air change (0.5 / h). By wall and ceiling coverings, floor coverings and furniture made of MDF / HDF wood fiber boards, these room loads can be significantly exceeded. Also, the air exchange of 0.5 / h is often well below in modern low-energy houses. This, in combination, can lead to higher room concentrations of wood constituents.
Im Verlaufe der Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffplatten und insbesondere bedingt durch den Herstellungsprozess der Holzspäne und Holzfasern entstehen bzw. werden eine Vielzahl von flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen freigesetzt. Zu den flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen, auch VOCs genannt, gehören flüchtige organische Stoffe, die leicht verdampfen bzw. bereits bei niedrigeren Temperaturen, wie zum Beispiel Raumtemperatur als Gas vorliegen.In the course of the production of wood-based panels and in particular due to the manufacturing process of the wood chips and wood fibers arise or a variety of volatile organic compounds are released. Volatile organic compounds, also called VOCs, include volatile organic compounds that are light in weight evaporate or already present at lower temperatures, such as room temperature as a gas.
Die flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen VOC sind entweder bereits im Holzmaterial vorhanden und werden während der Aufarbeitung aus diesem abgegeben oder sie werden nach derzeitigem Erkenntnisstand durch den Abbau von ungesättigten Fettsäuren gebildet, die wiederum Zersetzungsprodukte des Holzes sind. Typische Umwandlungsprodukte, die während der Bearbeitung auftreten, sind zum Beispiel höhere Aldehyde oder auch organische Säuren. Organische Säuren fallen insbesondere als Spaltprodukte der Holzbestandteile Zellulose, Hemizellulosen und Lignin an, wobei bevorzugt Alkansäuren, wie Essigsäure, Propionsäure, Hexansäure oder aromatische Säuren gebildet werden. Aldehyde werden während der hydrolytischen Aufarbeitung aus den Grundbausteinen der Zellulose oder Hemizellulose gebildet werden. So wird z.B. der Aldehyd Furfural aus Mono-und Disacchariden der Zellulose bzw. Hemizellulose gebildet, während aromatische Aldehyde während des partiell stattfindenden hydrolytischen Ausschlusses von Lignin freigesetzt werden können. Weitere freigesetzte Aldehyde sind u.a. die höheren Aldehyde Hexanal, Pentanal oder Oktanal.The volatile organic compounds VOC are either already present in the wood material and are released during workup from this or they are formed according to the current state of knowledge by the degradation of unsaturated fatty acids, which in turn are decomposition products of wood. Typical conversion products that occur during processing are, for example, higher aldehydes or organic acids. Organic acids are produced in particular as cleavage products of the wood constituents cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin, alkanoic acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid, hexanoic acid or aromatic acids preferably being formed. Aldehydes will be formed during the hydrolytic workup from the basic building blocks of cellulose or hemicellulose. For example, the aldehyde furfural is formed from mono- and disaccharides of cellulose or hemicellulose, while aromatic aldehydes can be liberated during the partial hydrolytic exclusion of lignin. Other released aldehydes include i.a. the higher aldehydes hexanal, pentanal or octanal.
Um das Problem der VOC-Emission zu lösen wurden in der Vergangenheit verschiedene Ansätze beschrieben. Zum einen besteht die Möglichkeit Holzfasern mit anderen natürlichen Fasern wie z.B. Wolle, Hanfflachs, zu mischen, die sich im Hinblick auf ihr Emissionsverhalten günstiger verhalten, um somit eine ökologische Holzfaserplatte mit verbesserter Emissionscharakteristik zu erhalten. Ein Nachteil hierbei ist allerdings die mit diesen Fasern verbundenen hohen Kosten und eingeschränkte Verfügbarkeit, da teilweise für die entsprechenden Faserarten auch höherwertige Anwendungen existieren, die einen anderen Einsatz nahelegen.In order to solve the problem of VOC emission, various approaches have been described in the past. On the one hand there is the possibility of wood fibers with other natural fibers such. Wool, hemp salmon, which behave more favorably with regard to their emission behavior, in order to obtain an ecological wood fiber board with improved emission characteristics. A disadvantage here, however, is the high costs associated with these fibers and limited availability, since in some cases higher-value applications exist for the corresponding fiber types, suggesting a different use.
Auch kann durch Zugabe von alkalischen Stoffen der pH-Wert in der Holzmatrix erhöht werden, um so die in der Holzmatrix ablaufenden säurekatalysierten Reaktionen zu verhindern bzw. zu reduzieren (

Dies sollte ohne gravierende Veränderung des üblichen Fertigungsprozesses erfolgen und nicht zu Kostensteigerungen führen. Auch sollte die Herstellung selbst keine höheren Emissionen erzeugen oder üblicherweise entstehende Prozesswässer stärker belasten. Zudem sollten die resultierenden Produkte ohne Probleme in der sich anschließenden Wertschöpfungskette verarbeitbar sein. Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffplatten, insbesondere von Holzspanplatten und Holzfaserplatten mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.

Das vorliegende Verfahren ermöglicht die Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffplatten wie Holzspanplatten und Holzfaserplatten unter Verwendung von wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln, die zusätzlich zu unbehandelten, nicht- wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln in einen bekannten Herstellungsprozess eingeführt werden.The present method enables the production of wood-based panels, such as chipboard and fiberboard using heat-treated wood chips, which are introduced into a known manufacturing process in addition to untreated, non-heat-treated wood chips.
Eine mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren hergestellte Holzwerkstoffplatte, insbesondere in Form einer Holzspanplatte oder einer Holzfaserplatte mit einer typischen Rohdichte von 400 bis 1200 kg/m3 umfassend aus wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln hergestellten Holzspänen oder Holzfasern weist eine verminderte Emission von flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen, insbesondere von höheren Aldehyden sowie von organischen Säuren auf.A wood-based panel produced by the method according to the invention, in particular in the form of a chipboard or a fiberboard with a typical density of 400 to 1200 kg / m 3 comprising wood chips or wood fibers produced from heat-treated wood chips has a reduced emission of volatile organic compounds, especially higher aldehydes and of organic acids.
Durch die Bereitstellung des vorliegenden Verfahrens ergeben sich weitere Vorteile. So ist eine einfache Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffplatten, wie Holzspanplatten und Holzfaserplatten ohne wesentliche Beeinflussung der üblichen Prozesskette möglich. Zudem wird die Emission von flüchtigen Verbindungen in die Luft im Verlaufe des Herstellungsprozesses der Holzwerkstoffplatten und die Belastung der Prozesswässer reduziert.By providing the present method, there are further advantages. Thus, a simple production of wood-based panels, such as chipboard and wood fiber boards is possible without significantly affecting the usual process chain. In addition, the emission of volatile compounds into the air during the manufacturing process of the wood-based panels and the burden of process water is reduced.
Die vorliegend angewendete Wärmebehandlung der Holzhackschnitzel erfolgt bevorzugt in einer Sattdampfatmosphäre insbesondere unter einem erhöhten Druck, bevorzugt über 5 bar. Die vorliegende Wärmebehandlung kann dabei sowohl als an sich bekannte Torrefizierung als auch, zumindest in Hinblick auf die Druckverhältnisse als eine Abwandlung der an sich bekannten Torrefizierung verstanden werden. Torrefizierung ist ein thermisches Behandlungsverfahren, bei welchem das zu torrefizierende Material in einer sauerstofffreien Gasatmosphäre typischerweise bei Atmosphärendruck erhitzt wird. Die Behandlung von Biomasse ohne Luftzutritt führt zu einer pyrolytischen Zersetzung und Trocknung. Das Verfahren wird bei für eine Pyrolyse relativ niedrigen Temperaturen von 250 bis 300 °C durchgeführt. Ziel ist, ähnlich wie bei einer Verkokung, die Erhöhung der massen- und volumenbezogenen Energiedichte und damit des Heizwerts des Rohmaterials, eine Steigerung der Transportwürdigkeit oder eine Reduzierung des Aufwands bei einem nachfolgenden Zermahlen von Biomasse.The presently applied heat treatment of the wood chips is preferably carried out in a saturated steam atmosphere, in particular under an elevated pressure, preferably above 5 bar. The present heat treatment can be understood both as torrefaction known per se and, at least with regard to the pressure conditions, as a modification of the torrefaction known per se. Torrefaction is a thermal treatment process in which the material to be torrefied is typically heated at atmospheric pressure in an oxygen-free gas atmosphere. The treatment of biomass without air access leads to a pyrolytic decomposition and drying. The process is carried out at relatively low temperatures of 250 to 300 ° C for pyrolysis. The aim is, as in the case of coking, to increase the mass and volume-related energy density and thus the calorific value of the raw material, to increase transportability or to reduce the expense of subsequent biomass milling.
Der Schritt der Wärmebehandlung der Holzhackschnitzel kann in dem vorliegenden Verfahren in verschiedener Weise vorgesehen sein.The step of heat treating the woodchips may be provided in various ways in the present process.
So ist es gemäß einer Ausführungsform möglich, den Schritt der Wärmebehandlung der Holzhackschnitzel in den Herstellungsprozess der Holzwerkstoffplatten, wie Holzspanplatten und Holzfaserplatten zu integrieren, d.h. der Wärmebehandlungschritt ist in den Gesamtprozess bzw. Prozesslinie eingegliedert und erfolgt online.Thus, according to one embodiment, it is possible to integrate the step of heat treatment of the woodchips into the manufacturing process of the wood-based panels, such as chipboard and fiberboard, i. the heat treatment step is integrated into the overall process or process line and takes place online.
In einer anderen Ausführungsvariante kann der Schritt der Wärmebehandlung der Holzhackschnitzel separat von dem Herstellungsprozess der Holzwerkstoffplatten, wie Holzspanplatten und Holzfaserplatten durchgeführt werden. Demnach erfolgt der Wärmebehandlungsschritt in dieser Ausführungsvariante des vorliegenden Verfahrens außerhalb des Gesamtprozesses bzw. der Prozesslinie. Die Holzhackschnitzel werden hierbei aus dem Herstellungsprozess ausgeschleust und in die Wärmebehandlungsvorrichtung (z.B. Wärmebehandlungsreaktor) eingeführt. Anschließend können die wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel ggf. nach einer Zwischenlagerung wieder in den herkömmlichen Herstellungsprozess eingeschleust werden. Dies ermöglicht eine hohe Flexibilität im Herstellungsverfahren.In another embodiment variant, the step of heat treatment of the wood chips can be carried out separately from the production process of the wood-based panels, such as chipboard and wood fiber boards. Accordingly, the heat treatment step in this embodiment of the present method is outside the overall process or process line. The woodchips are thereby discharged from the manufacturing process and introduced into the heat treatment apparatus (e.g., heat treatment reactor). Subsequently, the heat-treated woodchips may possibly be introduced again into the conventional manufacturing process after an intermediate storage. This allows a high flexibility in the manufacturing process.
Die vorliegend verwendeten Holzhackschnitzel können eine Länge zwischen 10 bis 100 mm, bevorzugt 20 bis 90 mm, insbesondere bevorzugt 30 bis 80 mm; eine Breite zwischen 5 bis 70 mm, bevorzugt 10 bis 50 mm, insbesondere bevorzugt 15 bis 20 mm; und eine Dicke zwischen 1 und 30 mm, bevorzugt zwischen 2 und 25 mm, insbesondere bevorzugt zwischen 3 und 20 mm aufweisen.The woodchips used herein may have a length between 10 to 100 mm, preferably 20 to 90 mm, particularly preferably 30 to 80 mm; a width between 5 to 70 mm, preferably 10 to 50 mm, particularly preferably 15 to 20 mm; and a thickness between 1 and 30 mm, preferably between 2 and 25 mm, particularly preferably between 3 and 20 mm.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform des vorliegenden Verfahrens werden die Holzhackschnitzel bei Temperaturen zwischen 200°C und 280°C, insbesondere bevorzugt zwischen 220°C und 260°C wärmebehandelt.In a further embodiment of the present method, the wood chips are heat treated at temperatures between 200 ° C and 280 ° C, more preferably between 220 ° C and 260 ° C.
Wie oben ausgeführt, kann der Wärmebehandlungsprozess der Holzhackschnitzel über einen Zeitraum zwischen 1 und 5 h, bevorzugt zwischen 2 und 3 h betragen, wobei die Dauer des Prozesses in Abhängigkeit der Menge und Art des eingesetzten Ausgangsmaterials variiert. Der Prozess de Wärmebehandlung wird bevorzugt bei einem Masseverlust der Holzhackschnitzel von 10 bis 30%, bevorzugt 15 bis 20% beendet.As stated above, the heat treatment process of the wood chips may be between 1 and 5 hours, preferably between 2 and 3 hours, with the duration of the process varying depending on the amount and type of starting material used. The process of heat treatment is preferably completed at a mass loss of the woodchips of 10 to 30%, preferably 15 to 20%.
Wie oben bereits erwähnt, werden in einer Ausführungsvariante des vorliegenden Verfahrens die Holzhackschnitzel durch Erhitzen in sauerstoffarmer oder sauerstofffreier Atmosphäre, insbesondere in einer Sattdampfatmosphäre wärmebehandelt. Dies kann unter Atmosphärendruck erfolgen. Im Falle der Verwendung von Sattdampf läuft der Wärmebehandlungsprozess bevorzugt bei Temperaturen zwischen 160°C und 220°C und Drücken von 6 bar bis 16 bar ab.As already mentioned above, in one embodiment variant of the present method, the wood chips are heat-treated by heating in a low-oxygen or oxygen-free atmosphere, in particular in a saturated steam atmosphere. This can be done under atmospheric pressure. In the case of the use of saturated steam, the heat treatment process preferably proceeds at temperatures between 160 ° C and 220 ° C and pressures of 6 bar to 16 bar.
Es ist ebenfalls bevorzugt, wenn zumindest ein Teil der Holzhackschnitzel mit einer Feuchte von 20-50 Gew% wärmebehandelt werden, d.h. hier erfolgt keine vorherige Trocknung der Holzhackschnitzel, sondern die Holzhackschnitzel werden ohne weitere Vorbehandlung nach dem Zerspanen der Wärmebehandlungsvorrichtung zugeführt.It is also preferred if at least a portion of the woodchips are heat treated at a moisture content of 20-50% by weight, i. no previous drying of the wood chips takes place here, but the wood chips are fed to the heat treatment device after further machining without further pretreatment.
Der vorliegend zum Einsatz kommende Wärmebehandlungsreaktor kann als Batch-Anlage oder als kontinuierlich betriebene Anlage vorliegen.The presently used heat treatment reactor can be present as a batch plant or as a continuously operated plant.
Die während des Wärmebehandlungsprozesses im Wesentlichen aus Hemizellulosen und anderen niedermolekularen Verbindungen freigesetzten Pyrolysegase werden zur Erzeugung von Prozessenergie benutzt. Dabei ist die Menge an gebildeten Gasgemisch als gasförmiger Brennstoff ausreichend, um den Prozess energetisch autark zu betreiben.The pyrolysis gases released during the heat treatment process essentially from hemicelluloses and other low molecular weight compounds are used to generate process energy. The amount of gas mixture formed as gaseous fuel is sufficient to operate the process energetically self-sufficient.
Die wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel werden bevorzugt auf Raumtemperatur abgekühlt und ggf. zwischengelagert oder dem Herstellungsprozess unmittelbar, ggf. nach Befeuchtung, wieder zugeführt.The heat-treated woodchips are preferably cooled to room temperature and, if appropriate, temporarily stored or returned to the production process directly, if necessary after moistening.
In einer Variante des vorliegenden Verfahrens werden die wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel in einem Wasserbad abgekühlt und gewässert, wobei dem Wasser mindestens ein Benetzungsmittel zugegeben wird. Das Netzmittel z.B. ein herkömmliches Tensid erleichtert die Benetzung der durch die Wärmebehandlung entstandenen hydrophoben Oberfläche der Holzhackschnitzel mit Wasser. Die Menge Netzmittel liegt dabei in dem Wasserbad, in das die Holzhackschnitzel überführt werden bei 0,1 bis 1,0 Gew%. Durch das Wässern wird der anschließende Zerspanungs- oder Zerfaserungsprozess positiv beeinflusst. Auch die Benetzung der Späne oder Fasern mit Bindemitteln, die Wasser als Lösemittel enthalten, wird hierdurch verbessert. Im Ergebnis des Wässerungsprozesses wird die Feuchte der wärmebehandelten Hackschnitzel auf 5 bis 20%, bevorzugt 10 bis 15% eingestellt.In a variant of the present method, the heat-treated woodchips are cooled and watered in a water bath, wherein at least one wetting agent is added to the water. The wetting agent e.g. a conventional surfactant facilitates the wetting of the resulting hydrophobic surface of the woodchips with water by the heat treatment. The amount of wetting agent is in the water bath, in which the wood chips are transferred at 0.1 to 1.0% by weight. Watering positively influences the subsequent cutting or defibering process. The wetting of the chips or fibers with binders containing water as a solvent is thereby improved. As a result of the washing process, the moisture of the heat-treated wood chips is adjusted to 5 to 20%, preferably 10 to 15%.
Ebenfalls wird die Feuchte der unbehandelten, nicht- wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel entsprechend eingestellt. Die Holzhackschnitzel werden in diesem Schritt z.B. gewaschen und gekocht. Die Wasserbehandlung ist wünschenswert, damit sich die Holzhackschnitzel zerspanen bzw. zerfasern lassen. Zudem würde ohne Wasser bei der Zerspanung bzw. Zerfaserung sehr viel unerwünschter Staub entstehen.Likewise, the moisture content of the untreated, non-heat treated wood chips is adjusted accordingly. The woodchips are in this step e.g. washed and cooked. The water treatment is desirable so that the wood chips can be chipped or shredded. In addition, without water in the machining or defibration would be very unwanted dust.
Es schließt sich ein Zerspanungsprozess der Holzhackschnitzel in einem Zerspaner oder ein Zerfaserungsprozess der Holzhackschnitzel in einem Refiner an, wobei Holzspänen bzw. den Holzfasern während des Zerfaserungsprozesses ebenfalls zusätzlich ein Benetzungsmittel zur Verbesserung der Wasserbenetzung des wärmebehandelten Holzes bzw. der Holzhackschnitzel zugegeben werden kann.This is followed by a machining process of the woodchips in a chipper or a defibration process of the wood chips in a refiner, wherein wood chips or the wood fibers during the fiberization process also a wetting agent for improving the water wetting of the heat-treated wood or wood chips can also be added.
Die im Zerspanungsprozess hergestellten Holzspäne werden in feines und grobes Spanmaterial unterteilt, wobei die größeren Holzspäne bevorzugt in der Mittelschicht der Spanplatte verwendet werden und die kleineren Holzspäne bevorzugt in den Deckschichten verwendet werden. Dabei ist es bevorzugt, wenn die in der Mittelschicht zum Einsatz kommenden Holzspäne aus wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln hergestellt wurden, da diese typischerweise eine dunkle Färbung aufweisen. Bei Verwendung der dunkel gefärbten Späne in der Mittelschicht wird die Plattenoptik somit nicht beeinträchtigt. Da die Mittelschicht typischerweise etwa 2/3 einer Spanplatte ausmacht, wird der Effekt auf Emissionsreduzierung zudem nicht negativ beeinflusst.The wood chips produced in the cutting process are divided into fine and coarse chip material, wherein the larger wood chips are preferably used in the middle layer of the chipboard and the smaller wood chips are preferably used in the cover layers. It is preferred if the wood chips used in the middle layer were produced from heat-treated wood chips, since these typically have a dark color. When using the dark colored chips in the middle layer, the plate optics is thus not affected. In addition, since the middle layer is typically about 2/3 of a particle board, the effect on emission reduction is not adversely affected.
Die mit dem Zerfaserungsprozess hergestellten Holzfasern weisen eine Länge zwischen 1,5 mm und 20 mm und eine Dicke zwischen 0,05 mm und 1 mm auf.The wood fibers produced by the defibration process have a length between 1.5 mm and 20 mm and a thickness between 0.05 mm and 1 mm.
In einem weiteren Schritt des vorliegenden Verfahrens werden die Holzspäne nach dem Zerspanungsprozess oder die Holzfasern nach dem Zerfaserungsprozess mit mindestens einem zur Vernetzung der Holzspäne oder Holzfasern geeigneten Bindemittel in Kontakt gebracht, wobei das In-Kontaktbringen der Holzspäne und Holzfasern mit dem Bindemittel jeweils in unterschiedlicher Weise erfolgen kann.In a further step of the present method, the wood chips after the machining process or the wood fibers after the defibration process are brought into contact with at least one binder suitable for crosslinking the wood chips or fibers, the contacting of the wood chips and wood fibers with the binder in each case in different ways can be done.
So können die Holzfasern mit dem mindestens einen Bindemittel in Schritt d) in einem Blow-Line-Verfahren kontaktiert werden, bei dem das Bindemittel in den Strom aus Holzfasern eingespritzt wird. Hierbei ist es möglich, dass die weiter unten beschriebenen Bindemittel zur Holzfaservernetzung in der Blow-Line einem Holzfaser-Dampfgemisch zugeführt werden.Thus, the wood fibers can be contacted with the at least one binder in step d) in a blow-line process in which the binder is injected into the stream of wood fibers. It is possible that the binders described below for wood fiber crosslinking in the blow-line are fed to a wood fiber-steam mixture.
Holzspäne werden hingegen bevorzugt in einer Mischvorrichtung mit dem Bindemittel kontaktiert.By contrast, wood chips are preferably contacted with the binder in a mixing device.
Die Menge an zugegebenen Bindemittel ist abhängig von der Art des Bindemittels und der Art der Holzwerkstoffplatte.The amount of binder added depends on the type of binder and the type of wood-based panel.
Im Falle eines Bindemittels auf Formaldehydbasis für eine Holzfaserplatte beträgt die auf die Holzfasern aufzutragende Bindemittelmenge zwischen 3 bis 20 Gew%, bevorzugt 5 bis 15 Gew%, insbesondere bevorzugt zwischen 8 und 12 Gew%. Werden hingegen Polyurethanhaltige Bindemittel, wie PMDI, für Holzfaserplatten verwendet, reduziert sich die notwendige Bindemittelmenge auf 1 bis 10 Gew%, bevorzugt 2 bis 8 Gew%, insbesondere bevorzugt auf 4 bis 6 Gew%.In the case of a formaldehyde-based binder for a wood fiber board, the amount of binder to be applied to the wood fibers is from 3 to 20% by weight, preferably from 5 to 15% by weight, more preferably from 8 to 12% by weight. If, on the other hand, polyurethane-containing binders, such as PMDI, are used for wood fiber boards, the necessary amount of binder is reduced to 1 to 10% by weight, preferably 2 to 8% by weight, particularly preferably 4 to 6% by weight.
Im Falle von Holzspanplatten werden bevorzugt Bindemittel auf Formaldehydbasis eingesetzt, wobei für die Mittelschicht Bindemittelmengen zwischen 5 und 8 Gew%, bevorzugt zwischen 6 und 7 Gew%, und für die Deckschicht zwischen 6 und 10 Gew%, bevorzugt zwischen 8 und 9 Gew% eingesetzt werden. Bei Einsatz eines Bindemittels auf Polyurethan-Basis, wie PMDI, in Holzspanplatten beträgt die Bindemittelmenge in der Mittelschicht zwischen 2 und 5 Gew%, bevorzugt 3 Gew%, und in der Deckschicht zwischen 4 und 8 Gew%, bevorzugt 5 Gew%.Binders based on formaldehyde are preferably used in the case of wood chip boards, wherein binder amounts of between 5 and 8% by weight, preferably between 6 and 7% by weight, and for the cover layer between 6 and 10% by weight, preferably between 8 and 9% by weight, are used for the middle layer become. When using a polyurethane-based binder, such as PMDI, in wood chipboards, the amount of binder in the middle layer is between 2 and 5% by weight, preferably 3% by weight, and in the top layer between 4 and 8% by weight, preferably 5% by weight.
Wie bereits angedeutet wird in einer Ausführungsform des vorliegenden Verfahrens bevorzugt ein Polymerklebstoff als Bindemittel verwendet, der ausgewählt ist aus der Gruppe enthaltend Formaldehyd-Klebstoffe, Polyurethan-Klebstoffe, Epoxidharz-Klebstoffe, Polyester-Klebstoffe, wobei hauptsächlich Formaldehyd-Klebstoffe zum Einsatz kommen.As already indicated, in one embodiment of the present method, a polymer adhesive is preferably used as a binder, which is selected from the group consisting of formaldehyde adhesives, polyurethane adhesives, epoxy adhesives, polyester adhesives, wherein mainly formaldehyde adhesives are used.
Als Formaldehyd-Klebstoff kann insbesondere ein Phenol-Formaldehydharz-Klebstoff (PF), ein Kresol-/ Resorcin-Formaldehydharz-Klebstoff, Harnstoff-Formaldehyd Harz-Klebstoff (UF) und/oder Melamin-Formaldehyd Harz Klebstoff (MF) verwendet werden.As the formaldehyde adhesive, in particular, a phenol-formaldehyde resin adhesive (PF), a cresol / resorcinol-formaldehyde resin adhesive, urea-formaldehyde resin adhesive (UF), and / or melamine-formaldehyde resin adhesive (MF) can be used.
Als Alternative zum Formaldehyd-Klebstoff bieten sich in geringerem Umfang Polyurethan-Klebstoffe basierend auf aromatischen Polyisocyanaten, insbesondere Polydiphenylmethandiisocyanat (PMDI), Toluylendiisocyanat (TDI) und/oder Diphenylmethandiisocyanat (MDI), wobei PMDI besonders bevorzugt ist, an.Polyurethane adhesives based on aromatic polyisocyanates, in particular polydiphenylmethane diisocyanate (PMDI), tolylene diisocyanate (TDI) and / or diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), with PMDI being particularly preferred, are available to a lesser extent as an alternative to the formaldehyde adhesive.
Möglich und vorstellbar wäre auch die Verwendung von Mischungen aus zwei oder mehreren Polymerklebstoffen, wie einem Formaldehyd-Klebstoff (wie MUF, MF, UF) und einem Polyurethanklebstoff (wie PMDI). Derartige Hybridklebstoffsysteme sind aus der
Es ist ebenfalls möglich, zusammen oder separat mit dem Bindemittel den Holzspänen oder Holzfasern mindestens ein Flammschutzmittel zuzuführen.It is also possible to supply at least one flame retardant to the wood chips or wood fibers together or separately with the binder.
Das Flammschutzmittel kann typischerweise in einer Menge zwischen 1 und 20 Gew%, bevorzugt zwischen 5 und 15 Gew%, insbesondere bevorzugt 10 Gew% dem Holzfaser-Bindemittel-Gemisch zugegeben werden.The flame retardant may typically be added to the wood fiber-binder mixture in an amount of between 1 and 20% by weight, preferably between 5 and 15% by weight, more preferably 10% by weight.
Typische Flammschutzmittel sind ausgewählt aus der Gruppe umfassend Phosphate, Borate, insbesondere Ammoniumpolyphosphat, Tris(tri-bromneopentyl)phosphat, Zinkborat oder Borsäurekomplexe von mehrwertigen Alkoholen.Typical flame retardants are selected from the group comprising phosphates, borates, in particular ammonium polyphosphate, tris (tri-bromneopentyl) phosphate, zinc borate or boric acid complexes of polyhydric alcohols.
In einem nächsten Verfahrensschritt werden die Holzspäne oder Holzfasern bis zu einem Feuchtegrad von 1 bis 10 %, bevorzugt 3 bis 5 getrocknet %. Im Falle von Holzspänen erfolgt der Trocknungsprozess bevorzugt in einem einstufigen Prozess, z.B. in einem Trommeltrockner, wohingegen Holzfasern in einem zweistufigen Prozess getrocknet werden können.In a next process step, the wood chips or wood fibers are dried to a degree of moisture of 1 to 10%, preferably 3 to 5%. In the case of wood chips, the drying process is preferably carried out in a one-step process, e.g. in a drum dryer, whereas wood fibers can be dried in a two-stage process.
Die getrockneten Holzspäne oder Holzfasern werden anschließend entsprechend ihrer Größe sortiert bzw. gesichtet und bevorzugterweise zwischengelagert, zum Beispiel in Silos oder Bunkern.The dried wood chips or wood fibers are then sorted according to their size or sighted and preferably stored, for example, in silos or bunkers.
Das Sichten der Späne oder Fasern nach dem Trocknungsprozess ist typischerweise verbunden mit einer Nachreinigung. Hierzu werden die Fasern in einen Luftstrom gegeben und entweder über Wirbelbildung, scharfe Umlenkungen, Prallsichtung, Steigluftsichtung oder einer Kombination mehrerer Effekte von Schwerteilen wie Leimklumpen weitestgehend befreit. Anschließend werden die Fasern erneut über Zyklonabscheider vom Luftstrom getrennt und der weiteren Verwendung zugeführt. Im Falle der Sichtung von Holzspänen werden diese in gröbere Späne für die Mittelschicht und feinere Späne für die Deckschichten unterteilt.The screening of the chips or fibers after the drying process is typically associated with a post-cleaning. For this purpose, the fibers are placed in an air stream and freed either largely by vortex formation, sharp deflections, impact vision, Steigluftsichtung or a combination of several effects of heavy particles such as glue lumps. Subsequently, the fibers are again separated by cyclone from the air flow and fed to further use. In the case of sighting of wood chips, these are subdivided into coarser chips for the middle class and finer chips for the outer layers.
Wie oben ausgeführt kann die Beleimung der Holzfasern bereits vor dem Trocknen erfolgen. Die Beleimung der Holzfasen kann aber auch nach dem Trocknen erfolgen. Im Falle der Verwendung von Holzspänen erfolgt die Beleimung jedoch nach der Sichtung, wobei das Beleimen durch Vermischen von Spänen und Leim erfolgt.As stated above, the gluing of the wood fibers can be done before drying. The gluing of the wood chamfers can also be done after drying. In the case of the use of wood chips, however, the gluing is done after the screening, wherein the gluing is done by mixing chips and glue.
Nach dem Sichten werden die beleimten Holzspäne oder Holzfasern auf ein Transportband unter Ausbildung eines Spankuchens oder Faserkuchens aufgestreut. Die im Falle der Holzfasern typischerweise verwendete Streustation besteht aus einem Dosierbunker, einer Mattenstreuung und einer Mattenglättung. Im Falle der Holzspäne wird üblicherweise mit einer Windstreuung gearbeitet, wobei zunächst eine erste Deckschicht, gefolgt von der Mittelschicht und abschließend eine zweite Deckschicht gestreut wird.After sifting, the glued wood chips or wood fibers are sprinkled on a conveyor belt to form a chip cake or fiber cake. The scattering station typically used in the case of wood fibers consists of a dosing bunker, a mat diffusion and a mat smoothing. In the case of wood shavings, it is customary to work with wind scattering, in which case firstly a first covering layer, followed by the middle layer and finally a second covering layer, is spread.
Der Spankuchen bzw. der Faserkuchen wird anschließend zunächst vorgepresst und anschließend bei Temperaturen zwischen 100°C und 250°C, bevorzugt 130°C und 220°C, insbesondere bei 200°C heiß verpresst.The chip cake or fiber cake is then first pre-pressed and then pressed hot at temperatures between 100 ° C and 250 ° C, preferably 130 ° C and 220 ° C, especially at 200 ° C.
Hierbei wird der Spankuchen oder der Faserkuchen nach dem Streuen zunächst gewogen und die Feuchte gemessen. Der Span- bzw. Faserkuchen gelangt anschließend in die Vorpresse. Hier wird der Kuchen bei der kalten Vorverdichtung in der Dicke reduziert, damit die anschließenden Heißpressen effizienter beschickt werden können und die Gefahr der Beschädigung des Kuchens reduziert wird. Bei der Vorverdichtung im Durchlauf wird zumeist mit Bandvorpressen, nach dem Prinzip des Förderbandes (seltener mit Plattenbandvorpressen, nach dem Prinzip der Panzerkette, oder mit Walzenbandvorpressen, nach dem Prinzip des Pyramidensteintransportes mit Rundhölzern) gearbeitet.Here, the chip cake or the fiber cake is first weighed after spreading and measured the moisture. The chip or fiber cake then passes into the pre-press. Here, the cake is reduced in thickness during the cold pre-compaction, so that the subsequent hot presses can be charged more efficiently and the risk of damage to the cake is reduced. In the pre-compaction in the run is usually worked with tape pre-pressing, according to the principle of the conveyor belt (rarely with Plattenbandvorpressen, according to the principle of the tank chain, or with Walzenbandvorpressen, according to the principle of pyramid stone transport with round timbers).
Nach der Vorpressung folgt die Besäumung des verdichteten Kuchens bzw. der Matte. Hier werden Seitenstreifen von der Matte abgetrennt, so dass die entsprechend gewünschte Plattenbreite produziert werden kann. Die Seitenstreifen werden vor der Streumaschine in den Prozess zurückgeführt. Weitere Messgeräte zur Dichtekontrolle oder Metallerkennung können folgen. Auch eine Mattenbesprühung zur Verbesserung der Oberflächenqualitäten oder Beschleunigung der Mattendurchwärmung kann folgen.After pre-pressing, the trimming of the compacted cake or mat follows. Here side strips are separated from the mat, so that the corresponding desired plate width can be produced. The side strips are in front of the spreader in the Process returned. Other measuring devices for density control or metal detection may follow. Also a Mattenbesprühung to improve the surface qualities or acceleration of the Mattwartwärmung can follow.
Es schließt sich die Heißpressung an, die getaktet oder kontinuierlich durchgeführt werden kann. Vorliegend ist ein kontinuierlich durchgeführtes Heißpressen bevorzugt. Hierzu werden kontinuierlich arbeitende Pressen verwendet, die mit einem Pressband oder mit Pressplatten arbeiten, über die der Druck und die Temperatur übertragen werden. Das Band wird dabei entweder von einem Rollenteppich, einem Stabteppich oder einem Ölpolster gegenüber den zumeist mit Thermalöl (seltener mit Dampf) beheizten Heizplatten abgestützt. Dieses Pressensystem ermöglicht die Produktion von Plattendicken zwischen 1,5 mm und 60 mm. Auf Kalanderpressen können ausschließlich dünne Span- oder Faserplatten hergestellt werden. Die Pressung erfolgt hier mit Presswalzen und einem Außenband auf einer beheizten Kalanderwalze.This is followed by the hot pressing, which can be clocked or continuously performed. In the present case, continuous hot pressing is preferred. For this purpose, continuous presses are used, which work with a press belt or press plates, via which the pressure and the temperature are transmitted. The tape is supported either by a roll carpet, a rod carpet or an oil pad against the mostly with thermal oil (more rarely with steam) heated heating plates. This press system enables the production of plate thicknesses between 1.5 mm and 60 mm. On calender presses only thin chipboard or fibreboard can be produced. The pressing takes place here with press rolls and an outer belt on a heated calender roll.
Nach dem Heißpressen werden die verpressten Platten konfektioniert. Es folgt zumeist eine Reihe von Messungen zur Qualitätskontrolle, insbesondere Dickenkontrolle.After hot pressing, the pressed plates are assembled. This is usually followed by a series of quality control measurements, in particular thickness control.

Die Verwendung von wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln zur Herstellung von Holzspanplatten und Holzfaserplatten weist eine Reihe von Vorteilen auf. So ist es besonders vorteilhaft, dass die aus den wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln hergestellten Holzspäne und Holzfasern besonders leicht zu trocknen sind, was insbesondere in der geringen Hydrophilie des wärmebehandelten Holzes begründet ist. Dies ist auch für die Nutzung der hergestellten Holzfaserplatten von Vorteil, da die aus den wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel hergestellten Holzspäne bzw. Holzfasern bei definierten Temperaturen und Luftfeuchten eine niedrigere Ausgleichsfeuchte besitzen als das nicht- wärmebehandelte Holz. Ein weiterer positiver Aspekt der Verwendung von wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln als Ausgangsmaterial ist, dass eine Vergleichmäßigung des Ausgangsrohstoffes Holz erreicht wird. Dies ist von besonderer wirtschaftlicher Bedeutung, da beim Einsatz von Holzhackschnitzeln zur Herstellung von Holzspanplatten, Holzfaserplatten oder anderen Holzwerkstoffen die jahreszeitlichen Schwankungen des Rohstoffes Holz berücksichtigt werden müssen. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass wärmebehandelte Holzhackschnitzel keinem biologischen Abbau oder anderen Änderungen durch Lagerung unterworfen sind, wodurch eine Lagerung der wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln über einen längeren Zeitraum möglich ist. Des Weiteren werden keine Inhaltsstoffe durch Wasserkontakt ausgewaschen, da diese im Wärmebehandlungsprozess zerstört worden sind.The use of heat-treated woodchips for the production of particle boards and fiberboard has a number of advantages. Thus, it is particularly advantageous that the wood chips and wood fibers produced from the heat-treated wood chips are particularly easy to dry, which is due in particular to the low hydrophilicity of the heat-treated wood. This is also advantageous for the use of the wood fiberboards produced, since the wood chips or wood fibers produced from the heat-treated wood chips have a lower equilibrium moisture content at defined temperatures and humidities than the non-heat-treated wood. Another positive aspect of the use of heat-treated woodchips as starting material is that a homogenization of the starting raw material wood is achieved. This is of particular economic importance, since the use of wood chips for the production of chipboard, wood fiber boards or other wood materials, the seasonal variations of the raw material wood must be considered. Another advantage is that heat treated woodchips are not subject to biodegradation or other alterations due to storage, allowing storage of the heat treated woodchips for an extended period of time. Furthermore, no ingredients are washed out by contact with water, as they have been destroyed in the heat treatment process.

Auch können die aus wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel hergestellten Holzspäne und Holzfasern zur Reduzierung der Emission von flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen (VOCs) aus Holzspanplatten oder Holzfaserplatten verwendet werden.Also, the wood chips and wood fibers produced from heat-treated woodchips can be used to reduce the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from wood chipboard or wood fiber board.
In einer bevorzugten Variante werden die aus wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel hergestellten Holzspäne und Holzfasern zur Reduzierung von während des Holzaufschlusses freigesetzten Aldehyden und/oder organischen Säuren verwendet.In a preferred variant, the wood chips and wood fibers produced from heat-treated woodchips are used to reduce aldehydes and / or organic acids released during wood pulping.
Entsprechend werden die aus wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel hergestellten Holzspäne / Holzfasern vorliegend bevorzugt zur Reduzierung der Emission von organischen Säuren, insbesondere zur Reduzierung der Emission von Essigsäure und Hexansäure verwendet. Organische Säuren fallen insbesondere als Spaltprodukte der Holzbestandteile Zellulose, Hemizellulosen und Lignin an, wobei bevorzugt Alkansäuren, wie Essigsäure, Propionsäure, Hexansäure oder aromatische Säuren gebildet werden.Accordingly, the wood chips / wood fibers produced from heat-treated woodchips are presently preferably used for reducing the emission of organic acids, in particular for reducing the emission of acetic acid and hexanoic acid.

Die in
Entsprechend wird zunächst in Schritt 1 geeignetes Holzausgangsmaterial zur Herstellung der Holzhackschnitzel bereitgestellt. Als Holzausgangsmaterial sind sämtliche Nadelhölzer, Laubhölzer oder auch Mischungen davon geeignet. Das Rundholz wird entrindet und in Scheibenhackern oder Trommelhackern zu Hackschnitzeln zerkleinert (Schritt 2), wobei die Größe der Holzhackschnitzel entsprechend gesteuert werden kann.Accordingly, in
Nach Zerkleinerung und Bereitstellung der Holzhackschnitzel werden diese ggf. einem Vortrocknungsprozess unterzogen, wobei eine Feuchte von 5-10 % in Bezug auf die Ausgangsfeuchte der Holzhackschnitzel eingestellt wird.After comminution and provision of the wood chips, they are possibly subjected to a predrying process, wherein a humidity of 5-10% is set with respect to the initial moisture content of the woodchips.
Im Falle der in
Nach Abschluss der Wärmebehandlung, die im vorliegenden Fall ca. 2 Stunden dauert, werden die wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel in das Verfahren wieder eingeschleust und werden gegebenenfalls zusammen mit den nicht- wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzeln in einem Wasch- und Kochschritt 4 wieder auf eine Feuchte von 10-20 % gebracht.After completion of the heat treatment, which takes in the present case about 2 hours, the heat-treated woodchips be reintroduced into the process and are optionally together with the non-heat treated woodchips in a washing and
Danach werden die Holzfasern dem Zerfaserungsprozess in einem Refiner (Schritt 5) unterworfen, wobei im Verlaufe des Zerfaserungsprozesses den Holzfasern ein geeignetes Benetzungsmittel zugeführt wird.Thereafter, the wood fibers are subjected to the pulping process in a refiner (step 5), whereby a suitable wetting agent is supplied to the wood fibers in the course of the pulping process.
Die Holzfasern können unmittelbar nach dem Faseraufschluss mit einem flüssigen Bindemittel und gegebenenfalls einem Flammschutzmittel vermischt werden (Schritt 6). Das In-Kontaktbringen der Holzfasern mit dem flüssigen Bindemittel kann in dieser Verfahrensstufe zum Beispiel in einem Blow-line- Verfahren erfolgen.The wood fibers can be mixed immediately after the fiber pulping with a liquid binder and optionally a flame retardant (step 6). The contacting of the wood fibers with the liquid binder can be carried out in this process stage, for example in a blow-line process.
Dem Beleimungsschritt 6 schließt sich ein Trocknungsprozess der beleimten Holzfasern (Schritt 7) an, wobei dieser Trocknungsprozess in zwei Stufen I, II erfolgen kann. Der Trockner ist als 2 Stufen Trockner ausgeführt, wobei die hauptsächliche Trocknung in Stufe 1 mittels heißer Gase (Luft oder überhitzter Dampf) erfolgt und Nachtrocknung in Stufe 2, wobei hier ebenfalls der Einsatz von heißer Luft oder überhitzten Dampf möglich ist. Das Stoffgemisch wird in/nach jeder Stufe mittels Abscheidezyklon und Kapselwerke getrennt.The gluing
Die getrockneten Holzfasern werden entsprechend ihrer Größe sortiert bzw. gesichtet (Schritt 8).The dried wood fibers are sorted according to their size (step 8).
Anschließend werden die beleimten Holzfasern auf ein Transportband gestreut (Schritt 9), der gebildete Faserkuchen zunächst einer Vorpresse zugeführt (Schritt 10) und abschließend in der Heißpresse (Schritt 11) zu einer großformatigen Holzfaserplatte verpresst.Subsequently, the glued wood fibers are scattered on a conveyor belt (step 9), the formed fiber cake first fed to a pre-press (step 10) and finally pressed in the hot press (step 11) to a large-sized wood fiber board.
In der Endbearbeitung wird die erhaltene Holzfaserplatte in geeigneter Weise konfektioniert.In the finishing, the wood fiber board obtained is assembled in a suitable manner.
Das in
Hackschnitzel werden ungetrocknet (Feuchte: ca. 50%, Format: ca. 5 x 5 cm, Dicke: ca. 1 cm) in einer kontinuierlich arbeitenden Wärmebehandlungsvorrichtung bei 220°C unter Sattdampf ca. 2 h gehalten. Die Vorrichtung besteht aus einer Fördervorrichtung durch die die Hackschnitzel mit Hilfe einer Transportschnecke langsam hindurchtransportiert werden.Wood chips are kept undried (humidity: approx. 50%, format: approx. 5 x 5 cm, thickness: approx. 1 cm) in a continuous heat treatment device at 220 ° C under saturated steam for approx. 2 h. The device consists of a conveyor through which the wood chips are transported slowly by means of a screw conveyor.
Anschließend werden die Hackschnitzel in der Hackschnitzelwäsche abgekühlt und dann der normalen Zerfaserung zu geführt. Dabei befand sich in dem Wasser der Hackschnitzelwäsche 0,1 % eines handelsüblichen Tensids. Dies wurde zugegeben um die Benetzung der hydrophoben Hackschnitzel zu verbessern. Das Wasser der Wäsche zeigte eine deutlich geringere Färbung und die Belastung mit organischen Bestandteilen war um ca. 90 % reduziert.Then the chips are cooled in the wood chips laundry and then led to the normal defibration. In this case, 0.1% of a commercially available surfactant was in the water of the wood chips washing. This was added to improve the wetting of the hydrophobic chips. The water of the laundry showed a significantly lower color and the load of organic ingredients was reduced by about 90%.
Die nach der Zerfaserung anfallenden Hackschnitzel, wurden in der Blowline mit einem handelsüblichen Harnstoff-Formaldehyd-Leim beleimt und getrocknet. Anschließend wurden die Fasern gestreut und zu einer MDF mit einer Dichte von 650 kg/m3 und einer Stärke von 10 mm verarbeitet.The wood chips resulting after defibration were glued in the blowline with a commercially available urea-formaldehyde glue and dried. Subsequently, the fibers were scattered and processed into MDF having a density of 650 kg / m 3 and a thickness of 10 mm.
Die resultierende MDF wird anschließend zusammen mit einer Nullprobe (aus nicht wärmebehandelten Hackschnitzeln) auf die VOC-Emission gemäß dem AgBB-Schema untersucht. Dabei wurde aus Zeitgründen der 3 Tagewert bestimmt.The resulting MDF is then tested for VOC emission according to the AgBB scheme along with a blank sample (from non-heat treated wood chips). For reasons of time, the 3-day value was determined.
Kammerparameter: Temperatur 23C°C; Luftfeuchte 50% +- 5%; Luftwechsel 0,5/h +- 0,1/h; Beladung 1m2/m3; Kammervolumen 225 m3
Wie aus der Tabelle sind die Emissionen der mengenmäßig wichtigsten Parameter aus der Versuchsplatte auf einem deutlich niedrigeren Niveau.As shown in the table, the emissions of the quantitatively most important parameters from the test plate are at a significantly lower level.
Die Herstellung von Holzspanplatten ist generell bekannt. Die analog zu Ausführungsbeispiel 1 wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel werden einem Zerspaner zugeführt. Nach der Zerspanung werden die Holzspäne auf eine Restfeuchte von ca. 2% in einem Trommeltrockner getrocknet. Nach der Trocknung erfolgt die Sichtung und Trennung der Holzspäne in gröbere Späne für die Mittelschicht und feinere Späne für die Deckschicht.The production of particleboard is generally known. The heat treated wood chips analogous to Example 1 are fed to a chipper. After cutting, the wood chips are dried to a residual moisture content of approx. 2% in a drum dryer. After drying, the wood chips are sorted and separated into coarser chips for the middle layer and finer chips for the top layer.
Nach dem Beleimen mit Harnstoff-Formaldehyd-Leim werden die Späne zu mehrschichtigen Spankuchen gestreut, wobei die in der Mittelschicht verwendeten Späne aus wärmebehandelten Holzhackschnitzel gewonnen wurde, und bei Temperaturen von ca. 200°C zu (nicht erfindungsgemäßen) Spanplatten verpresst.After gluing with urea-formaldehyde glue, the chips are scattered to multilayer chip cake, wherein the chips used in the middle layer of heat-treated wood chips was recovered, and pressed at temperatures of about 200 ° C to (not according to the invention) chipboard.
Die in Analogie zu Ausführungsbeispiel 1 durchgeführte Emissionsuntersuchung ergab ähnlich reduzierte VOC-Emissionswerte für Essigsäure und die höheren Aldehyde.The emission study carried out analogously to Example 1 showed similarly reduced VOC emission values for acetic acid and the higher aldehydes.
