Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to the field of papermaking, and more particularly to pulp production for papermaking. Specifically, this invention pertains to an apparatus and process for washing pulp.
  • the goal of pulp washing is to obtain pulp essentially free from soluable impurities.
  • a preferred washing system would completely remove waste liquor and other impurities, while using only a minimal amount of wash liquid.
  • any wash fluids added during the washing stage must also be treated, either by evaporation or other means. Therefore, it is desirable to minimize the amount of wash fluid added during the washing process.
  • the papermaking industry has adopted the term "dilution factor" in assessing the efficiency of wash systems with respect to the amount of wash fluid used.
  • the dilution factor can be described as the amount of water or other wash liquid put into the system and not taken out of the system with the washed pulp as the pulp is removed from the system. If the quantity of wash fluid added is equal to the quantity of washed fluid passing from the system with the pulp, the dilution factor is zero. Low dilution factors are, therefore, desirable.
  • displacement washing A second, more efficient type of washing was pursued, generally characterized as displacement washing.
  • displacement washing techniques diffusion of the wash liquid through the pulp material is controlled to avoid mixing, and the wash liquid merely replaces the liquor in the pulp.
  • Early forms of displacement washing occurred as batch processes in large tanks separate from the digester known as diffusers. However, because of the characteristics of pulp fibers, channelling, or tunnelling, through a large pulp column often occurred, and wash liquor would pass through a pulp column while bypassing entrapped liquor volumes held by fiber networks.
  • the interior of the drum was partially evacuated by the use of a hydraulic drop leg to create a partial vacuum, while the area above the mat remained at atmospheric pressure.
  • the increased pressure differential between the atmospheric area outside the drum and the low pressure area inside the drum improved drainage through the mat and allowed showers to be used. Wash liquid sprayed through nozzles displaced the liquid in the mat.
  • vacuum washers of this type relate to flashing of hot fluids.
  • drainage of liquor through a pulp mat improves with elevated temperatures, and higher temperatures therefore improve washing efficiency.
  • vacuum washers which operate with up to a minus five psi (-5 psi) in the drum created lower equilibrium temperature conditions. Therefore, it was not possible to significantly raise the operating temperature of vacuum washers to further improve the drainage characteristics.
  • Gravity deckers and vacuum washers included outer housings and hoods to contain liquor and odors within a confined area.
  • the hood around the washer could be provided with a seal, and a blower used to increase the air pressure above the mat within the sealed hood area.
  • the pressure washer operated with a positive pressure (i.e. above atmospheric pressure) in the hood, and a slightly higher than atmospheric pressure in the drum. Mat formation occurred as in previous washers in which the rotating drum picked up a fiber mat from a vat of slurry.
  • the pressure washers of this type also utilized showers in the wash zone, for displacing the liquor from the cellulose fibers.
  • feed consistencies were limited on pressure washers, as in gravity deckers and vacuum washers, to about one to one and one-half percent (1 - 1 %). At higher feed consistencies clumpy mat formation occurred, and drainage characteristics varied significantly throughout the pulp mat, resulting in inconsistent washing.
  • a subsequent development in the art of pressure washers was the utilization of a headbox, or similar device, for distributing the stock on a foraminous drum, to replace the vat pick-up techniques used in gravity deckers and early vacuum and pressure washers.
  • Headbox-like devices through the input of energy maintain the stock in a fluidized state, allowing the use of higher stock consistencies with improved mat formation.
  • a distinct separation could be created between the formation zone and the washing zone of such washers, allowing new washing techniques to be utilized.
  • the mat forms the base of a pond of wash fluid thereabove, and the wash fluid drains through the pulp mat as the foraminous roll rotates.
  • the air or other gas supplied to the hood to pressurize the hood permeates the mat and drum to cause an overpressure in the interior of the drum.
  • both the hood and the drum operate at above-atmospheric pressure, with the hood being at a higher pressure, generally, than the drum interior.
  • the fiber mat passes to a repulper, screw conveyor or other apparatus, which generally operate at atmospheric pressure.
  • a seal is provided between the pressurized zones and the non-pressurized mat take-off area. Since the interior of the drum is at overpressure, a pressure differential exists between the drum interior and the take-off area, with the drum interior being at higher pressure. Thus, pressure from the drum attempts to escape from the drum, blowing the mat from the drum surface and into the repulper or screw conveyor. This was generally considered to be advantageous for pulp removal, and, in fact, in some pressure washers bypass conduits have been provided from the washer hood to the drum interior to even further increase the overpressurization of the drum interior, to aid in blowing the mat from the drum.
  • the escaping air from the drum has undesirable effects. Because of the nature of washing, the interior surfaces of the washer become coated with a thin layer of black liquor. Air escaping from the drum and impinging on the liquor covered surfaces in the take-off area, generates a foam with the liquor, which entraps air bubbles. The foam becomes mixed with the pulp in the repulper and is passed with the pulp to subsequent washing stages or other treatment steps. Air in the pulp is generally undesirable, in that drainage is reduced and subsequent wash stages are, therefore, less efficient. In the past, this has been compensated for by the use of defoaming agents, or by the use of larger downstream washers to achieve the desired degree of washing in spite of the reduced drainage characteristics of the pulp. However, with certain types of pulp, foaming becomes an even more significant problem, and the additional equipment cost for subsequent wash stages is economically undesirable. Additionally, large volumes of defoaming agents can be expensive, and their use may not be totally without hazard.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a pulp-washing apparatus and process which minimizes foam generation while washing pulps with high foam generation characteristics.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a pulp-washing apparatus and process which operates as a continuous, flow-through pulp washing process.
  • Still another object of the present invention is to provide a pulp washer drum pressure relieving system which can be added easily, quickly and inexpensively as a retrofit to existing pressure washers.
  • a pressure washer apparatus for removing the overpressure from the inside of the washer drum.
  • the intake for a blower supplying air to pressurize the washer hood is connected to the drum interior, thereby securing its fluid supply, at least in part, from the drum interior.
  • the inlets to the pressurizing blower can be controlled in such a manner as to provide various levels of negative pressurization within the drum, thereby increasing the pressure differential between the washer hood and drum interior, to maximize fluid drainage through the pulp mat.
  • the pressure/vacuum washer of the present invention does not suffer significantly from the problems of flashing experienced in other vacuum washers. High wash temperatures can be maintained to still further improve draining.
  • Relief of pressure in the drum can be achieved independently from the blower system used to pressurize the hood; however, economies of operation and installation costs can be achieved by combining the pressure relief system for the drum with the pressurizing system for the hood.
  • a pipe with flow control means is provided between the drum interior and a plenum above the repulper in a pressure washer.
  • the blower intake is connected to the plenum, and a common wall between the plenum and the repulper also includes a valve apparatus for controlling the flow of air therethrough.
  • the air provided to the plenum can be controlled between the supply from the repulper area, which is atmospheric, and the drum area, which is sealed and, but for relief through the present invention, would be at a greater than atmospheric pressure.
  • the pressure in the drum can be maintained at atmospheric pressure, or at various levels of subatmospheric pressure.
  • the pressure relief system for the drum interior can be independently connected to the blower inlet apart from the repulper plenum; or, as mentioned previously.
  • a separate evacuation system with scrubbers discharging to atmosphere can be used to relieve pressure in the drum.
  • Any of a number of apparatus may be utilized for removing the pulp mat from the drum at the outlet side of the washing zone, including steam doctors, water doctors, or the like.

  • Drum 40 receives and supports a mat of pulp fibers, carrying the fibers between a mat formation zone 50 and a mat removal zone 52, while passing through first a washing zone 54 and, second, a dewatering zone 56.
  • the mat formation zone 50 includes a formation plate 60 and suitable adjustment mechanisms such as a pivotal support 62 and a plurality of position control apparatus 64 for controlling the position and attitude of the formation plate with respect to drum 40.

Abstract

Sont décrits un cylindre laveur sous pression perfectionné (10) et un procédé pour laver de la pâte de cellulose, dans lesquels un matelas de pâte (113) est créé sur un tambour rotatif (40) et se déplace à travers une zone de lavage (54) et une zone d'égouttage (56) entre la zone de formation du matelas (50) et une zone d'élimination du matelas (52). Un capot (20) est prévu au-dessus du tambour (40), avec des joints appropriés, et une atmosphère pressurisée est créée dans les zones de lavage et d'égouttage (54, 56). Pour réduire la pression qui normalement s'accumule à l'intérieur du tambour de lavage (40), une canalisation (120) est reliée entre l'intérieur du tambour (112) et l'admission (86) de la soufflante (84) utilisée pour pressuriser le capot. Ainsi, la production de mousse est réduite au minimum puisque l'intérieur du tambour (112) est maintenu à une pression égale ou inférieure à la pression atmosphérique. Un rouleau décolleur ou un racloir est prévu pour enlever le matelas du tambour (40).
