V'l Claims. l
This invention relates to the continuous Xanthation of alkali cellulose in the manufacture of cellulose Xanthates for viscose spinning solutions and has for an object to provide a novel and improved method and apparatus for carrying out the above steps on a commercial scale.
Another object is to .provide a system for continuously reacting alkali cellulose with carbon bisulide vapor to obtain a uniform product in a minimum reaction time.
Another object is to provide a system of the above type which may be so controlled as to substantially prevent the escape of carbon bisulde vapor into the atmosphere.
Another object is to provide a system of the above type which may be operated continuously on a commercial scale with a minimum of manual control.
Various other objects and advantages will be apparent as the nature of the invention is more fully disclosed.
In accordance with the present invention, the shredded alkali cellulose in the form of a crumb or slurry is fed through a vacuum zone in which a reduced pressure is maintained so as to remove as much as .possible of the air from the cellulose. The cellulose crumb or slurry is then fed continuously to a rotating reaction drum to which a controlled amount of carbon bisulfide liquid is supplied. The amount of carbon bisulide is controlled with respect to temperature and pressure so that it vaporizes immediately in the reaction drum to maintain an atmosphere of carbon bisulfde Vapor therein through which the cellulose crumb is tumbed as it is fed along in the rotating drum. When the crumb reaches the end of the drum the reaction is complete and the cellulose Xanthate is removed through a vapor seal which prevents escape of the carbon bisulide vapor. The cellulose Xanthate thus formed is discharged into a dilute caustic bath or may be fed to a mixer or disintegrator or to a chamber for the evacuation of the carbon bisuliide 'from which it may be supplied to the mixer or disintegrator and is thereafter treated in the usual manner for the formation of the viscose spinning solution.
Although the novel features which are believed to be characteristic of this invention are pointed out more particularly in the claims appended hereto, the nature of the invention will be better understood by referring to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing in which a specific embodiment thereof has been shown for purposes of illustration.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic representation of an apparatus for carrying out the process of the present invention; and
Fig. 2 is atransverse section through the rotating reaction drum taken on the line 2-2 -of Fig. 1. l
Referring to the drawing more in detail, th alkali cellulose which is received from a cellulose treating zone in the form of a comparatively dry crumb is fed `through a pipe Il! byfa rotating screw conveyor lI and is discharged through a duct I 2 through a pair of bell valves ifi and I5 in series. The bell valves III and I5 comprise rotating vanes I6 and l? respectively which are continuously driven by any suitable means so as to feed the cellulose crumb downwardly while maintaining la vapor seal'. The duct I I) is provided with a fluid jacket I8 through which a suitable iiud, such as water or gas, may be circulated for controlling the temperature of the cellulose crumb as it is advanced by the conveyor II.
The bell valve I5 is shown as discharging the loosely descending crumb through a duct 2e to a chamber 2l in which a reduced pressure is maintained by suitable means indicated as an exhaust pipe 22 which may be connected to any suitable suction source such as a vacuum pump not shown.
The chamber ZI discharges the cellulose crumb through a pair of bell valves '23 and 2d containing rotating vanes 25 and 2S respectively, which are adapted to feed the crumb continuously while maintaining a vapor seal so as to hold the chamber 2l under a partial vacuum. The bell valve 24 discharges through a duct 2l to a stationary head 28 in which one end of a rotating reaction drum 29 is journalled.
iquid carbon bisullde is fed through the head 28 by means of a pipe el! from a receiver 3l in which the carbon bisuliide is maintained at a fixed head by means of an inlet pipe $2 anda return pipe 33. A suitable vent pipe 3d may be provided for removing the carbon bisulnde vapor. The rate of feed of the liquid carbon bisulflde is controlled by a valve 35.
In the particular embodiment shown, the reaction drum 2Q is shown as provided with an outer housing do which forms a uid jacket liI therearound for controlling the temperature of the reaction. The housing @Il is provided with spaced tracks 52 and i3 which are supported b'j rollers dit and.l5 respectively mounted on suparranged that the reaction drum 2Q rotates about an inclined axis so that material is fed along the drum by gravity as the reaction proceeds and may be made adjustable for varying the pitch of the drum as required for obtaining the desired rate of feed of the material. The drum is driven by suitable means, shown as a gear i3 engaging a rack 49 on the drum at a rate to effect the proper feed of the material. Fluid is supplied to the jacket 4i for heat control purposes through an inlet annulus 52 which is stationary and is sealed to the rotating drum by Suitable means indicated as flanges '53 and 54. A plurality of apertures 55 communicate from the annulus 52 to the chamber ill. A similar annulus 58 communicating with discharge passages 59 in the shell 40 receives the uid from the jacket 4l for discharge to a duct 60.
The lower end of the drum 29 is journalled for rotation in a head 65 with which a discharge duct 66 communicates, Suitable packing glands may be provided for making a fluid seal between the drum and the heads 28 and 55. The duct 55 feeds the reacted material to a cylinder Si in which a piston 68 is mounted to be reciprocated by suitable means shown as a rotating crank 69. The piston 68 may be gas pervious to aliow the carbon bisulide vapors to escape from the compacted mass into the duct 65. If desired the piston may be designed to stop just short of closing the duct 66 so as to avoid sealing od the vapors. The arrangement of the piston 53 is such that at each reciprocation it pushes along the cylinder 6'! the material which has fallen into the space ahead of the piston from the passage 65. ThisV material r:
is compacted in the cylinder El to provide a seal which prevents escape of the carbon bis-hide vapor from the end of the cylinder. The material is discharged from the end of the cylinder 6l into a suitable receiver lll. A relief valve il may be included to prevent excessive pressure from being built up for any reason. The drum 2e may be evacuated by suitable means shown as a pipe 12 which may be connected to a suction device and is closed by a valve 13.
In the operation of this device the alkali cellulose crumb or slurry is fed continuously by the screw conveyor Il into the vacuum chamber 2| which serves to remove the air from the alkali cellulose to a point such that the reaction with carbon bisulde in the rotating drum 2B does not proceed with sufcent violence to produce combustion.
The drum 29 is also evacuated and the valve 13 closed. The carbon bisulde is fed into the reaction drum in the lioud form through the pipe 3U as above described. However, the amount so fed is so controlled by the valve 35 that it immediately vaporizes upon entering the drum. The temperature and pressure within the drum are suitably controlled for this purpose by varying the rate of introduction of the carbon bisulfide and the flow oi heating or cooling fluid through the jacket 4 I. The rate of feed of the carbon bisuliide is preferably so adjusted that there will be no excess carbon bisulde to be removed from the drum at the end of the reaction period. The carbon bisulde can be introduced at various points, for example, to flow countercurrent to the crumb if desired. i
During the reaction time within the drum the alkali cellulose crumb is agitated and thoroughly mixed with the carbon bisulde vapor so that all particles of the crumb are brought into contact with the vapor and a uniform and complete reaction takes place. The length of the drum and the rate of feed of the crumb are so controlled, as by varying the pitch or speed of rotation, that the material reaches the lower end of the drum at the time the reaction is completed to form cellulose xanthate. If desired the rate of ilow of the material through the drum 29 may be more positively controlled by a screw feed means either within the drum or formed as helical vanes on the inner wall thereof. This xanthate then falls through the duct S6 into the cylinder 67 and is pushed along and compacted within the cylinder in the form of a comparatively hard mass which forms a vapor seal to prevent the escape of the carbon bisulii'de vapor. The piston 58 also squeezes out any carbon bisulde liquor which may be present in the material.
The cellulose xanthate is then discharged from the end of the cylinder 5l into the receiver 'l0 wherein it may be dissolved in a caustic solution to form the usual viscose spinning solution for the manufacture of rayon fibres, or it may be fed to mixers or disintegrators if desired or to a suitable zone for the removal of excess carbon bisulfide before being applied to the caustic tank.
In this apparatus from 15 to 30 minutes may be required `for the complete xanthation in the drum 29 as distinguished from the two or three hours normally required for baratte batch operation. The process has the further advantage that the carbon bisulde vapor is not discharged into the room nor is special evacuating apparatus required as the amount introduced may be accurately controlled so as to avoid excess.
In order to prevent building up the carbon bisulfide pressure in the drum when the crumb feed is interrupted, a suitable automatic control for the valve may be provided such as an electric eye actuated by the crumb in the duct 2l or a high pressure shut-off responsive to the pressure in the drum 29. Suitable cleaning means such as a scraper blade may be provided if necessary to prevent the material from adhering to the inside of the drum.
While a specific embodiment of the invention has been shown for purposes of illustration, it is to be understood that the invention is capable of various uses and that changes and modications may be made therein as will be readily apparent to a person skilled in the art. The invention is only to be restricted in accordance with the scope of the following claims.
