Definitions
- the invention relates to a device in particular for treating melts in the production of polycondensates, comprising a cylindrical or columnar or conical container, at least one cylindrical or columnar or conical stirring element which is rotatably arranged in the container in close proximity to the container wall.
- an apparatus which comprises a thin film polymerization tank, at least one columnar or cylindrical, roller-shaped impeller which rotates along a substantially cylindrical, vertical tank wall and in close proximity thereof, and, in the upper part of the tank, a planetary gear in order to drive the impeller, with the propeller being mounted on the fly.
- a polyester-forming monomer and / or an oligomer thereof in the form of a thin film is dropped onto the inner surface of the tank wall at elevated temperature.
- the agitator blade is moved epicyclically along the tank wall and in the circumferential direction thereof. The monomer begins to polymerize and the resulting polymer melt is withdrawn from the polymerization tank after a certain time, which corresponds to the desired degree of polymerization (cf. also DE 1 495 665).
- the known device has the disadvantages that, due to the flying mounting of the agitator blades, the distance of the agitator blade to the tank wall from top to bottom must be greater, resulting in an uneven layer thickness the melt leads.
- the reactor is also not suitable for the treatment of highly viscous melts, because this would bend the mixing paddle towards the middle of the tank. Thin films can then no longer be produced and the apparatus would also be damaged.
- the invention seeks to remedy this.
- this is done by a device of the type mentioned at the outset, which is characterized in that at least one of the stirring elements is mounted on both sides.
- the invention thus relates to a device for treating melts, in particular in the production of polycondensates, comprising a cylindrical or columnar or conical container, at least one cylindrical or columnar or conical stirring element which is rotatably arranged in the container in close proximity to the container wall, characterized in that at least one of the stirring elements is mounted on both sides.
- Preferred refinements of the device according to the invention result from claims 2 to 4.
- Individual or more of the individual features mentioned in the refinements can each represent independent solutions according to the invention, and the individual features can also be combined as desired.
- the advantage of the invention can be seen essentially in the fact that deflection of the rolls is prevented and that highly viscous melts can thereby be treated.
- the device is particularly suitable for the treatment of highly viscous fluids, in particular for carrying out processes for the production of polycondensates, in particular polyester (PET), by means of melt polymerization, the viscosities also from melts up to 2000 Pas, still thin films can be produced.
- PET polyester
- the device according to the invention it is possible to carry out the polymerization process in such a way that almost the entire surfaces inside the container are continuously rewetted with melt.
- one or both bearings can rotate partially or completely in the melt.
- the device can be operated vertically, inclined or lying.
- Containers and scrambled elements can preferably be cylindrical, conical or barrel-shaped. Cylindrical rollers are particularly suitable as stirring elements. The surfaces of the stirring elements can be smooth or structured, for example in order to move the melt to the outlet of the container with spiral grooves.
- rollers rotating around the container can be supported by a central roller, similar to the sun gear of a planetary gear. This results in a harmonious movement with constantly newly wetted surfaces.
- the rollers can be dragged along and driven by the friction between the inner cylinder wall and the outer cylinder roller wall. It is also possible to drive the rollers from the outside or by sprockets with more effort, so that they run ahead or run after.
- the vapors can be removed or fumigation media can be added.
- the melt moves in the container due to the melt level and / or due to the inclination of the entire device to exit, for example on the end of the container opposite the melt inlet.
- All moving and stationary parts of the apparatus inside the container can be continuously flushed with fluid so that no deposits are formed.
- the device can be erected with a diameter of up to 2.5 or 3 m and a length of up to 7.5 m.
- the device can e.g. at the melting range of polyester (PET), between 250 and 300 ° C and a vacuum of a few millibars or less or with overpressure compared to the environment.
- PET polyester
- the device can e.g. at the melting range of polyester (PET), between 250 and 300 ° C and a vacuum of a few millibars or less or with overpressure compared to the environment.
- Figure 1 an embodiment of the device according to the invention in the axial
- Sectional view Figure 2 a cross section along the plane shown in Figure 1.
- melt is introduced through an inlet 3.
- the melt is evenly distributed on the inner wall of the container 1 and on the outer wall of the cylindrical rollers 4, 5 in that the cylindrical rollers 5 roll on the longitudinal inner wall of the container 1.
- the cylindrical roller package 4, 5 is provided with bearing elements 6 on both sides. It can also be driven on both sides via these bearing elements 6.
- the melt In the operating state, the melt is rolled out as a film on which is constantly form new surfaces. This facilitates gas delivery or absorption from or into the melt.
- the melt is also thoroughly mixed and rolled over by the movement of the cylindrical roller 4, 5. These processes are repeated cyclically, according to the given geometry.
- the central roller 4 on the one hand supports the outer rollers 5, and on the other hand it creates an additional surface for the melt.
