Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method by means of which contaminated sands can be cleaned using a cleaning liquid, and in particular by how the cleaning liquid can be used as efficiently as possible.
  • An important field of application of the present invention is the purification of core sands, such as those used to produce sand cores for metal foundries. For environmental reasons, core sands, or sand cores made from them, which are bound with inorganic binders are already being used. In contrast, conventional methods use organic binders.
  • a molding material called "core sand”
  • core sand is filled into a mold having a cavity having the shape of the sand core to be formed, to provide sufficient rapid and uniform filling of that cavity
  • the core sand is usually introduced via a plurality of distributed openings, so-called “shot openings” in the mold.
  • shots openings so-called "shot openings” in the mold.
  • a nozzle When filling in each of the firing openings, a nozzle (“firing nozzle”) is introduced, through which the core sand is introduced into the cavity, which is usually carried by compressed air or pressurized gas at high speed, so that the core sand is also injected.
  • the core sand itself is normally stored within a closed volume on the side of the shot nozzle facing away from the mold, the so-called "shot hood.”
  • the core sand is injected into the core sand. lumen abruptly and for a short time (within about 500 ms to 800 ms) applied to a pressurized gas, which in turn is stored in a compressed gas reservoir. Due to the overpressure, the core sand is introduced into the mold, the core sand being completely penetrated by the gas, so that the majority of the gas introduced also flows through the core sand and through the firing nozzles into the mold, from which the shot gas can escape through vents.
  • the bound with organic binders sands for example, after the cold box process, usually cleaned by thermal treatment in which the sand must be heated to temperatures above 400 0 C. This is energetically extremely unfavorable and thus leads to an increase in the total cost of the process. Since the process throughputs are usually relatively high, the thermally treated sand often even needs to be cooled before it can be reused. In addition to the thermal treatment other mechanical separation methods are common, such as the screening or air classification. In the now preferred inorganic binders, a thermal aftertreatment can in principle also lead to success, but then a chemical additive would be necessary to keep the sand processable. However, the chemical additives require an extremely high temperature of the thermal aftertreatment, which must be at least 900 0 C. This would increase the cost of cleaning compared to the cost of organic binder to the inefficiency of the process, since organic binders can be removed even at temperatures around 400 0 C.
  • a suspension is typically formed between the sand and the liquid, ie the macroscopic sand particles are in a liquid-saturated environment and can thus be conveyed or moved by a liquid flow or by mechanical drives. In this state of aggregation, they can also be used with fluidic methods clean, for example, when the suspension is diluted to supply a hydro-cyclone.
  • a hydro-cyclone is functionally similar to a centrifuge, with the hydro-cyclone designed for continuous operation. The particles present in dilute suspensions are separated in the hydrocyclone in a kind of artificial vortex, the lighter particles in a liquid rotating about the center of the cyclone not being driven out as much as the heavier particles.
  • the water is sucked off both at the edge of a cylinder or cone delimiting the cyclone and in the middle of the cyclone, so that a separation of the light and heavy particles in the suspension can be achieved.
  • the system has high dynamics, ie, the liquid flows through the cyclone at high tangential velocities, which are achieved by tangentially entrapping the diluted suspension in the cyclone at high pressures. This inevitably requires that a large amount of liquid must be used per unit time. A Hydrozyk- lon consumes a large amount of liquid per unit of time.

  • each cleaning step is sensitive, for example, to specific physical differences of the particles to be separated.
  • the present invention is based on the finding that contaminated sands can be cleaned in a resource-saving manner by means of a cleaning solution if two cleaning stages based on different cleaning principles are used sequentially, which can remove different impurities and whose cleaning agent requirement per unit time is similar, so that cleaning liquid used for cleaning the downstream cleaning stage can be used as a cleaning fluid for the upstream purification stage.

  • the arrangement of the purification stages is therefore selected in the exemplary embodiments according to the invention such that an upstream classifier is used as the upstream purification stage, at the classifying inlet of which a suspension of the contaminated sand and the cleaning liquid is introduced.
  • the upflow classifier separates ultrafine particles from the sand suspension whose rate of descent is less than the flow rate of the countercurrently flowing cleaning liquid.
  • the classified sand suspension cleaned by the classifier of fines is fed to the second cleaning stage, a washing device for washing the suspension of the sand. For washing, this also uses cleaning liquid and a washing principle which does not lead to any accumulation of particles in the cleaning liquid. Since the sand suspension supplied to the washing device is already freed of very fine particles, in some embodiments of the invention a washing device is used whose washing principle prevents such finest particles from being additionally generated or accumulated in the cleaning liquid of the washing device.

  • a multi-stage paddle scrubber is used, ie a paddle scrubber which has a plurality of serially arranged paddles.
  • a paddle scrubber uses only slowly rotating mechanical components, so that there is hardly any mechanical abrasion in the paddle scrubber itself, as would be the case, for example, with a high-speed rotating centrifuge. An enrichment of the cleaning liquid with the finest particles of material as a result of abrasion is therefore excluded.
  • the low speed of the paddles used prevents crushing or breaking up of the sand crystals due to mechanical effects, so that no fine particles are separated from the sand to be cleaned itself, which could prevent complete reuse of the cleaning fluid of the paddle scrubber.
  • a paddle scrubber can be operated with small but variable amounts of detergent, since a change in the amount of detergent per unit time can be compensated by the inclination of the paddle scrubber assembly, so that the cleaning properties do not change, even if the volume flow of the cleaning liquid is increased or decreased ,

Abstract

Des sables contaminés sont nettoyés à l'aide d'un liquide de nettoyage qui économise les ressources. Deux étapes de nettoyage reposant sur des principes de nettoyage différents sont utilisées séquentiellement, et peuvent éliminer des contaminations différentes. Leur besoin en détergent par unité de temps est similaire, si bien que le liquide de nettoyage utilisé pour nettoyer dans la seconde étape peut être utilisé comme liquide de nettoyage pour la première étape.
