11 Claims.
The object of my invention is to provide improved means by which oils or fats in a continuous stream may be effectively bleached at low cost. The term oleaginous material is used throughout the present specification `and claims as a generic term including both oils and fats.
The accompanying drawing illustrates, diagrammatically, an embodiment of my invention.
In the drawing Ill indicates a supply reservoir for the liquid material to be bleached, and II a pump capable of delivering a continuous stream therefrom to and through a mixer I2. Also delivering to mixer I2 is a pump I3 supplied from a mixing tank I4 equipped with a mechanical agitator I5. Tank I4 contains a supply of bleaching materia', such as fullers earth, preferably as a slurry, with a convenient amount of the liquid to be bleached. The eluent from mixer I2 is delivered as a spray from a nozzle I6 in a vacuum chamber Il, the spray forming a thin stream on baffles I8 and passing into a sump I9 whence it is discharged by pump 20. A relatively high vacuum is maintained in chamber I1 by well known means, not shown, so that occluded air in the mixture under treatment is extracted in order that the result of the bleaching action may be more stable.
Up to this point, the material to be treated is at a relatively low temperature but sufiiciently high to render it adequately uid, and little, if any, bleaching action occurs prior to arrival beyond pump 20.
It is well known that bleaching occurs best at a temperature in the neighborhood of 240 F. and within a relatively short time. I believe it to be advantageous that each particle of oleaginous material and its accompanying particle of bleacher be brought to bleaching temperature as promptly as possible and that that temperature be maintained only long enough for the bleaching action to be accomplished. To this end, the eflluent from pump 20 is to be delivered to one end of a relatively thin annular heating chamber 2l formed between tube 22, and a rotary beater shaft '23 provided on its periphery with beaters 24 which will scrape tube 22. Tube 22 is jacketed by heating means 25 which, in turn, is jacketed by heat insulation 26, the arrangement being such that the mixture under treatment is brought to proper temperature Within a short period of 1 to 10 seconds.
Under proper conditions of uniform heating and thorough mixture of oleaginous material and bleacher, bleaching will be accomplished within a few minutes and therefore the eflluent from the air therein will be extracted therefrom,
2 heating chamber passes into one end of a tube 21 jacketed by heat insulation 28 and provided with inwardly projecting pins 29 with which are interdigitated beaters 30 carried by rotary shaft 3I.
By properly proportioning the effective capacities of the heating chamber and the mixer 2li-29, any desired relation between heating time and bleaching time may be definitely established.
The effluent from tube 21 passes to filters 32, 32 which, by alternateuse in conjunction with valves 33, 33', will permit continuity of bleaching for an indefinite period.
Thepumps II, I3 and 20 may be driven by any wellknovvn means preferably including speedvarying means so that rates of oW and local pressures may be established as desired.
Merely as illustrative, it may be noted that if tube 22 is 46 long, 4 in diameter, shaft 23 diameter 31/2", tube 2'I length 46", diameter 15", and shaft 3I diameter 2", there will be provided .a heating period of approximately 2.5 seconds and a bleaching period of 1.57 minutes at anormal pressure established by pump 20.
