Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、湿潤紙力増強紙を含む紙料を製紙用原料として再利用する離解方法に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
近年、地球環境への配慮から省資源、省エネルギー、公害防止への関心が高まり、古紙の回収・再利用がますます重視されてきている。回収・再利用される古紙原料は、新聞紙、雑誌、チラシ、事務用紙、段ボール等の他に、従来、離解が困難であるとされた各種加工処理紙の回収、再利用も進み、古紙の回収率も高くなってきた。その結果、古紙配合品種が増加するとともに古紙の配合率が高くなり、紙製品の強度は低下するようになった。そこで、これを補うために湿潤紙力増強剤が使用され、これを用いた湿潤紙力増強紙が増加している。
【0003】
湿潤紙力増強剤としては、ポリアミドエピクロルヒドリン樹脂、ポリアミンエピクロルヒドリン樹脂、メラミン−ホルマリン樹脂、尿素−ホルマリン樹脂等があり、これらをパルプスラリーに添加することで、湿潤時の湿潤紙力が高められ、抄紙−プレス−乾燥時の紙切れ、断紙の低減に寄与し、更には製品の紙力向上にも寄与している。
【0004】
一般に損紙や回収古紙の離解では、水と水酸化ナトリウムや珪酸ナトリウム等のアルカリ性薬品を添加して、機械的処理および加熱処理を行って、パルプスラリーとされる。しかし、湿潤紙力増強紙では湿潤時の紙力高くなっているために離解の困難性も高くなっている。そこで、湿潤紙力増強紙の離解を促進するために離解処理を行う前に塩酸、硫酸、スルファミン酸、リン酸などの酸類あるいは過酸化水素を使用して湿潤紙力増強剤を処理して離解処理を行う方法が行われてきたが、十分な効果を得るには至っていなかった。
【0005】
そこで、種々の方法が提案、実施されてきた。例えば、通常、塩素化イソシアヌル酸化合物を用いる方法(例えば、特許文献1参照)、次亜塩素酸ソーダや亜塩素酸ソーダを用いて離解処理する方法(例えば特許文献2参照)などがある。しかし、塩素化イソシアヌル酸化合物を用いた方法では、湿潤紙力増強剤の効果を失わせるには有効であるが、弱酸性の条件で離解を行うために十分な古紙の離解効果が得られないこと、腐食性ハロゲンガスの発生による離解装置やその周辺装置の腐食が問題となる。また、亜塩素酸塩と次亜塩素酸塩を用いた方法では、湿潤紙力増強紙の離解促進には有効な方法であるが、亜塩素酸塩と次亜塩素酸塩から発生する腐食性ハロゲンガスにより離解装置やその周辺装置の腐食問題を引き起こしている。この改善のために酵素を用いる方法(例えば特許文献3、4参照)なども提案されているが、pH等の使用条件が限定させることや使用する酵素が高価であり、経済的に実用的ではない。そのため、湿潤紙力増強紙の離解が促進され、作業・取扱が容易で、しかも離解装置およびその周辺装置の腐食が少ないような、満足しうる方法は、依然として得られていない。

【0008】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決すべく、一般の紙及び湿潤紙力増強紙の離解について鋭意検討を重ねた結果、ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物が湿潤紙力増強紙の離解処理を容易にし、しかも腐食性も少ないことを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。

【0018】
本発明で用いるハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物は、一般式(1)で表されるハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物である。

一般式(1)において、R、Rは、いずれか一方が塩素原子あるいは臭素原子であり、他方が水素原子、アルカリ金属、塩素原子、臭素原子、炭素数が1〜12のヒドロキシル基を持っていても良いアルキル基を表し、R、Rは同一であっても異なっていても良く、それぞれ水素原子又は炭素数1〜12のアルキル基を表す。具体的には、ジブロモ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、ジブロモ−5,5−ジエチルヒダントイン、ジブロモ−5,5−ジプロピルヒダントイン、ジブロモ−5−エチル−5−メチルヒダントイン、ブロモクロロ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、ブロモクロロ−5,5−ジエチルヒダントイン、ブロモクロロ−5,5−ジプロピルヒダントイン、ブロモクロロ−5−エチル−5−メチルヒダントイン、ジクロロ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、ジクロロ−5,5−ジエチルヒダントイン、ジクロロ−5,5−ジプロピルヒダントイン、ジクロロ−5−エチル−5−メチルヒダントイン、モノクロロ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、モノクロロ−5,5−ジエチルヒダントイン、モノクロロ−5,5−ジプロピルヒダントイン、モノクロロ−5−エチル−5−メチルヒダントイン、モノブロモ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、モノブロモ−5,5−ジエチルヒダントイン、モノブロモ−5,5−ジプロピルヒダントイン、モノブロモ−5−エチル−5−メチルヒダントイン、ブロモメチロール−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、クロロメチロール−5,5−ジメチルヒダントインなどがあり、好ましくはブロモクロロ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、ジクロロ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、ジブロモ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントイン、ジブロモ−5,5−ジメチルヒダントインである。これらの1種あるいは2種以上を用いることができる。
【0021】
ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の添加量は、離解条件及び目的とする離解パルプの条件により適宜選択されれば良く、一律に決定されるものではないが、通常、絶乾紙料重量当り0.1〜10重量%、好ましくは0.3〜5.0重量%、より好ましくは0.5〜3重量%(以下、「重量%」を「%」とする。)である。ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の添加量が0.1%未満では本発明の離解促進効果が十分得られない場合があり、ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の添加量が10%を超えてもハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の添加量の増加に見合うだけの離解促進効果の向上が得られなく、経済的にメリットが少ない場合がある。
【0022】
ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の形状は、特に限定されるものではなく、粉体、顆粒、錠剤、水溶液、液体スラリー等のいずれの形状でも良いが、水溶液あるいは水スラリーとしての添加が好ましい。
【0023】
本発明におけるハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の添加方法は、特に限定されるものではないが、例えば粉体、顆粒、錠剤であれば、これらをタンクに入れタンク下方より通水し、上方よりハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の希釈液を取り出し、離解工程の水系に添加する方法、あるいはハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の水溶液を薬液ポンプで注入する方法、又はハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の水スラリーを薬液ポンプで注入する方法等があり、いずれを用いても良い。また、ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の添加期間は、特に限定されるものではなく、目的とする離解の程度に応じて、バッチ式添加、連続添加、間歇添加のいずれかを適宜選択されれば良い。
【0024】
本発明において、ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物は湿潤紙力増強紙を含む古紙や損紙からなる紙料を離解する際に存在すればよく、ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の添加場所は、離解機、当該紙料の離解に使用する清水あるいは清水の供給ラインなどがあり、適宜選択すれば良い。
【0025】
本発明の離解工程水のpHは、離解条件により異なり一律に決定されないが、一般的にはpHが6〜10であるが、アルカリ性の方が紙料の離解が促進されるため、好ましくは7〜10、より好ましくは7.5〜9.5である。
【0026】
本発明の離解方法における離解時間は、紙料の種類、離解パルプの程度、離解装置等の条件により適宜選択されれば良く、一律に決定されるものではないが、通常、30分から5時間である。
【0027】
ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物と併用する水酸化カリウム、水酸化ナトリウム等のアルカリ類の添加量は、離解条件及び目的とする離解時のpH条件により適宜選択されれば良く、一律に決定されるものではないが、通常、古紙乾燥重量当り0.1〜10%、好ましくは0.5〜5.0%である。
【0028】
ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物を用いた本発明の離解方法は、具体的には次のように行われる。
【0029】
高濃度パルパーに古紙紙料を投入し、清水を入れてパルプ濃度約14〜18%とし、ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物0.1%(乾燥紙料重量当り)、珪酸ナトリウム1〜3%(乾燥紙料重量当り)、過酸化水素0.1〜0.5%(乾燥紙料重量当り)、付着性異物除去用のタルク0.1%(乾燥紙料重量当り)等を入れ、さらに必要に応じてアニオン性ポリマー系スケールコントロール剤や水の硬度調節用に塩化カルシウムを添加し、水酸化ナトリウム約1〜2%(乾燥紙料重量当り)でpHを約9〜10に調整し、スチームを吹き込んで水温40〜60℃(場合によっては70〜85℃)に加温し、これを維持しながらで45分〜3時間、撹拌して離解を行なう。離解後、パルパーから古紙スラリーを取り出し、精選工程に送られてスクリーン等で未離解紙料を除去し、脱墨工程へと送られる。
【0030】
本発明のハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物を用いた湿潤紙力増強紙を含む古紙や損紙からなる紙料の離解方法は、ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物が水中で加水分解して生じた次亜ハロゲン酸〔HOX〕が強い酸化力を持ち、生成と同時に湿潤紙力増強剤に作用(酸化、分解)し、その働きを低下させることにより離解が進み、また、ハロゲン化ヒダントイン化合物の加水分解は徐放的に進むため、生じた次亜ハロゲン酸〔HOX〕は、副反応してハロゲン酸〔HX〕を発生して揮発したり、次亜ハロゲン酸〔HOX〕を生じることなく、湿潤紙力増強剤に作用する比率が高いと推定される。一方、次亜塩素酸ナトリウム〔NaOCl〕では、酸化力の弱い次亜塩素酸イオン〔OCl〕が多くを占め、湿潤紙力増強剤への作用(酸化反応)に劣るうえに、副反応により塩化水素を発生して揮発し、周辺装置類の腐食の要因となっていると考えられる。
【0031】
本発明の効果を損なわない範囲において、従来使用されてきた離解剤、界面活性剤等の離解促進剤、スケールコントロール剤、キレート剤、デポジットコントロール剤、微生物処理剤等を用いることを何ら妨げるものではない。
【0032】

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a disintegration method for reusing a stock containing wet strength paper as a raw material for papermaking.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, interest in resource saving, energy saving, and pollution prevention has been increased due to consideration for the global environment, and collection and reuse of used paper has been increasingly emphasized. Recycled paper raw materials that are collected and reused include newspapers, magazines, flyers, office paper, corrugated cardboard, and various processed papers that have been considered difficult to disintegrate. The rate is getting higher. As a result, the number of kinds of used paper increases, and the mixing ratio of the used paper increases, and the strength of paper products decreases. Therefore, a wet strength agent is used to make up for this, and wet strength paper using the same is increasing.
[0003]
Examples of the wet paper strength enhancer include polyamide epichlorohydrin resin, polyamine epichlorohydrin resin, melamine-formalin resin, urea-formalin resin, and the like. By adding these to the pulp slurry, the wet paper strength when wet is increased, and -Press-contributes to the reduction of paper breakage and paper breakage during drying, and also contributes to improving the paper strength of products.
[0004]
Generally, in the disintegration of waste paper and recovered waste paper, pulp slurry is obtained by adding water and an alkaline chemical such as sodium hydroxide or sodium silicate, and performing mechanical treatment and heat treatment. However, in the wet paper strength-enhancing paper, the paper strength in the wet state is high, so that the disintegration is also difficult. Therefore, in order to promote the disintegration of the wet strength paper, the wet strength agent is treated with an acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, sulfamic acid, phosphoric acid or hydrogen peroxide before the disintegration treatment is performed to disintegrate the paper. Although a method of performing the treatment has been performed, a sufficient effect has not been obtained.
[0005]
Therefore, various methods have been proposed and implemented. For example, there are usually a method using a chlorinated isocyanuric acid compound (for example, see Patent Document 1) and a method of disaggregating using sodium hypochlorite or sodium chlorite (for example, see Patent Document 2). However, the method using the chlorinated isocyanuric acid compound is effective for losing the effect of the wet paper strength enhancer, but does not provide a sufficient disintegration effect of the used paper to disintegrate under weakly acidic conditions. In addition, corrosion of the disintegrator and its peripheral devices due to generation of corrosive halogen gas poses a problem. In addition, the method using chlorite and hypochlorite is an effective method for accelerating the disaggregation of wet strength paper, but the corrosiveness generated from chlorite and hypochlorite is effective. Halogen gas causes corrosion problems in the disintegration device and its peripheral devices. For this improvement, a method using an enzyme (see, for example, Patent Documents 3 and 4) has been proposed. However, it is difficult to limit the use conditions such as pH, and the enzyme to be used is expensive. Absent. Therefore, a satisfactory method has not yet been obtained in which the disintegration of the wet strength paper is promoted, the work and handling are easy, and the disintegration device and its peripheral devices are less corroded.

The method for disintegrating stock from waste paper and broke including wet paper strength paper using the halogenated hydantoin compound of the present invention is a method for dissolving hypohalogenous acid [HOX] produced by hydrolyzing a halogenated hydantoin compound in water. Has a strong oxidizing power, acts on the wet paper strength enhancer (oxidation and decomposition) at the same time as its formation, and reduces its action to promote disintegration, and the hydrolysis of the halogenated hydantoin compound proceeds gradually. Therefore, the generated hypohalous acid [HOX] acts on the wet paper strength enhancer without generating a halogen acid [HX] by a side reaction and volatilizing, and without generating hypohalous acid [HOX]. It is estimated that the ratio is high. On the other hand, in sodium hypochlorite [NaOCl], hypochlorite ion [OCl ] having a weak oxidizing power occupies a large amount, and is inferior to the action (oxidation reaction) on the wet paper strength enhancer. It is considered that hydrogen chloride is generated and volatilized, causing corrosion of peripheral devices.
