PROCESS OF PREPARIN' G HEMP.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 4,09% dated June 25, 1845.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, THoMAs H. BAnLow, of the city of Lexington and State of Kentucky, have invented a new Mode of Rotting Hemp and Flax; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description.
A sufiicient number of vats should be oonstructed of a suitable size. I recommend that they be made 8 feet wide, 5 feet deep, and 30 feet long. The size however is not essential. They may be constructed above ground, and if so, they should he made like the forebay of a mill, strongly planked inside, and boarded up on the outside of the frame, and the space between the two to be filled up with clay, saw dust or any other substance, which will exclude the sun and weather from the exterior of the inner lining, and thereby prevent leaking. If sunk in the ground, the vats should be construct which may be located at the end of the vats;
from which a steam pipe A, will extend to the vats; and from this main pipe A, smaller branch pipes B, B, will be carried to the intervals between the vats, so that each branch pipe will serve for two vats From the branch pip-es B, smaller branch pipes C, C, C, C &c. extend into the vats over the edges, and reach nearly to the bottom, at intervals of about four feet, but sufficient to convey the steam rapidly into them if required. Each pipe should be supplied with a stop cock D, near its principal branch, so as to control the discharge of the steam, and increase or diminish it at pleasure. Those in tervals between the vats through which the branch pipes pass, may be from 18 to 24 inches. The other intervals should be wide enough for a hand cart to pass in, to fill and empty the vats of hemp. In vats thus arwith water.
ranged place the hemp stalks, tied up in bundles of moderate size, and cover them After being immersed let in the steam so as to raise the temperature of the water to a degree from 80 to 120; let the hemp macerate at that degree, until when handled, it shall be slippery and approaching to putrefaction, which will generally occur at the end of 36 hours; sometime requiring niore time. At that stage of the process, let in the steam so as to raise the water to the boiling point, and continue it at that point for one or two hours, until the glutinous matter of the hemp be thrown off. Then draw off the water while hot and as soon as the hemp is cool enough to be handled, set it up in open shocks, or spread it on the ground to dry. By adding any kind of alkali to the water while the hemp is macerating the process will be much shortened; and where the article is intended for fine fabrics, the alkali is necessary as it not only hastens the process, but improves in some measure the texture of the hemp or flax.
Hemp or flax when rotted by this process, produces a larger quantity, and of far better x quality, than when they are rotted, by either dew or cold water. The hemp is stronger and takes tar better. Being free from gluten the hemp will stand exposure to the atmosphere better.
hat I claim as my discovery, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The above process of preparing hemp or flax; by first steeping it in warm water until it is completely macerated, and then as soon as it has been brought to this macerated condition, the temperature of the water is to be immediately raised to, or above, the boiling point; by which means the further progress of fermentation and putrefaction is stopped; and by continuing the boiling of the water, a rapid and com plete separation of the gluten from the fiber is effected.
