Definitions

  • the present invention relates to treatment of cellulose pulp and more specifically to an arrangement and a method for washing cellulose pulp.
  • Pulp washing is a key operation in the chemical pulping line.
  • washers There are many different types of washers available, including wash presses, dewatering presses, diffusers and filters.
  • One well-known washing principle is displacement, where dirty liquid (liquor) in the pulp is replaced by cleaner washing liquid.
  • Another well-known washing principle is pressing, where dirty liquid is pressed (squeezed) out from the pulp. Displacement and pressing often occurs in the same washing machine, such as in a press washer of the general type disclosed in US Patent 3,980,518 for example.
  • washing efficiency and capacity Two important issues to consider regarding washing are washing efficiency and capacity. These factors often have to be balanced against each other in the sense that an increase of capacity leads to a decrease of efficiency, or vice versa. A washing solution providing an improved washing efficiency as well as high capacity would thus be very desirable.
  • the washing arrangement comprises a rotor with a number of pulp chambers that are transferred between different pulp handling zones as the rotor rotates in a stepwise manner.
  • the washing arrangement is adapted for increasing the consistency of the pulp and then perform displacement washing. This is achieved by means of a piston device, provided at one of the pulp handling zones and arranged for piston movement in a radial direction with respect to the rotor.
  • an arrangement for washing cellulose pulp comprising a pulp transport rotor and a number of pulp chambers.
  • Each pulp chamber is partly defined by a perforated surface of the pulp transport rotor, whereby filtrate is allowed to pass through the perforated surface when there is pulp in the pulp chamber.
  • the pulp transport rotor is arranged to rotate stepwise so as to transfer the perforated surface of the respective pulp chambers to a subsequent one of a number of pulp handling zones in the washing arrangement.
  • the washing arrangement further comprises a piston device arranged at one of the pulp handling zones, said piston device being arranged for piston movement in a radial direction with respect to the pulp transport rotor so as to, in operation and upon movement towards the pulp, increase the consistency of pulp in the pulp chamber currently located in that pulp handling zone, and means for displacement washing, at the pulp handling zone associated with the piston device, of the pulp with increased consistency using the piston device.
  • the means for displacement washing can for example be arranged for displacement washing at a pressure of 5-20OkPa on a pulp having an increased consistency of 10-30%.
  • the proposed washing arrangement allows for displacement washing at high consistency and high pressure. The washing efficiency is high, and yet the washing arrangement is associated with a comparatively large capacity.
  • the means for displacement washing generally comprises means for wash liquid addition to the pulp handling zone associated with the piston device.
  • the wash liquid can, for example, be added via (i.e. from inside) the piston device, for instance from a wash liquid compartment within the piston device and through a perforated end wall of the piston device. This results in even wash liquid distribution throughout the width of the pulp chamber, i.e. between its side walls, and hence efficient displacement washing.
  • the means for displacement washing can with advantage comprise means for piston movement of the piston device. Piston movement towards pulp in the pulp chamber then generally causes wash liquid to be pressed into the pulp, where it replaces dirty liquid.
  • piston movement is used both for increasing the pulp consistency and for displacement washing.
  • the piston device is a double piston device comprising an inner piston that is arranged inside an outer piston and movable in relation to the outer piston. Efficient dewatering and displacement can be achieved by first moving the whole piston device and then pressing only the inner piston further towards the pulp. The piston need not be reversed/backed outwards from the pulp transport rotor before the wash liquid addition of the displacement phase.
  • the double piston device provides an efficient and sophisticated means for pressing and displacement.
  • Another advantage of the double piston device is that the pulp cake will be "locked", i.e. held tightly, by the outer piston during the displacement washing, which inter alia reduces the risk of air being mixed into the pulp.
  • the single piston is adapted for "back and forth movement", typically such that the single piston, after being moved towards the pulp (pulp consistency increase), is released from the pulp and backed a certain distance out from the rotor to allow wash liquid to enter the pulp chamber. Then, the single piston is again moved towards the rotor for the displacement to be effected.
  • the single piston is connected to an external pressure device, such as a pump, arranged to press wash liquid through the pulp in the pulp chamber.
  • the pressure device embodiment offers a comparatively simple piston device design and straightforward functionality.
  • a method for washing cellulose pulp is provided.
  • a piston device for use in an arrangement for washing cellulose pulp is provided.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a washing arrangement according to an exemplifying embodiment of the present invention
  • FIGs. 2A to 2G illustrate various operational stages of a washing arrangement according to an exemplifying embodiment of the present invention
  • FIGS. 3A to 3E illustrate various operational stages of a washing arrangement according to another exemplifying embodiment of the present invention
  • FIGs. 4A to 4E illustrate various operational stages of a washing arrangement according to still another exemplifying embodiment of the present invention.
  • Fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart of a method for washing cellulose pulp in accordance with an exemplifying embodiment of the present invention.
  • piston movement will refer to movement of a piston within an outer structure.
  • the piston is typically a closed, although possibly perforated, piston structure with a connecting element, such as a piston rod, at one end, through which motion is transmitted.
  • the outer structure can for example be the pulp chamber or the outer piston described below.
  • the piston is arranged to travel or slide within the outer structure in a back and forward linear manner.
  • Fig. 1 schematically illustrates an example washing arrangement in accordance with the present invention.
  • the washing arrangement 100 comprises a rotating structure, referred to as pulp transport rotor 10, with four pulp chambers 12 arranged to rotate in steps of about 90 degrees when the washing arrangement 100 is in operation.
  • the pulp chambers 12 would normally be arranged on the outer portion of the pulp transport rotor 10.
  • Each pulp chamber 12 has a perforated surface 12a, typically substantially the entire inner wall of the pulp chamber 12, onto which a layer of pulp is typically deposited in the initial position of the pulp chamber.
  • Filtrate is allowed to flow through the perforated surface 12a in a generally radially inward direction when there is pulp in the pulp chamber 12.
  • the filtrate is typically collected by an inner filtrate collection structure 16, and can for example be led to valve(s) at one or both ends of the rotor 10.
  • the pulp chamber 12 is further restricted by two side walls 12b, formed by dividing members 10a, which in the example of Fig. 1 are part of the rotor 10.
  • the stepwise rotation R of the pulp transport rotor 10 transports the respective pulp chambers 12 between pulp handling zones Zl, Z2, Z3, Z4 in the washing arrangement. These zones are stationary and will each generally enclose one of the pulp chambers, i.e. the pulp chamber currently present in that zone (when the rotor is not moving), as well as possible pulp handling equipment (piston device, cleaning means, etc., see below).
  • a piston device 20 arranged to cooperate with the pulp chamber 12 currently in zone Z2.
  • the piston device 20 is arranged for piston movement M in a radial direction with respect to the pulp transport rotor 10 so as to, in operation and upon movement towards the pulp, increase the consistency of the pulp in the pulp chamber 12.
  • the piston device 20 may comprise a piston arranged to fit into the respective pulp chambers when they are in the pulp handling zone Z2 associated with the piston device.
  • the piston device 20 typically comprises a piston with a width substantially corresponding to the width of the pulp chamber 12 between the side walls 12b.
  • the piston device 20 typically comprises a pressing surface, facing the perforated surface 12a of the pulp chamber 12 and the shape and orientation of which substantially corresponds to that of the perforated surface 12a. In Fig. 1, the pressing surface is the outer surface of the piston end wall 22a.
  • the pressing surface is movable and adapted for pressing pulp against the perforated surface 12a in a generally radially inward direction with respect to the pulp transport rotor 10, whereby the pulp is dewatered and its consistency increases.
  • the piston device 20 extends along substantially the entire axial length of the pulp transport rotor 10.
  • the piston device may be hydraulic, e.g. using oil or wash liquid as hydraulic liquid, but alternatives are possible.
  • the illustrated example piston device 20 is a double piston device comprising an outer piston 22 and an inner piston 24.
  • the inner piston 24 is arranged inside the outer piston 22 and movable in relation to the outer piston 22.
  • the outer piston 22 cooperates with the pulp chamber 12. It may, for example, be arranged to travel in the pulp chamber 12, at least for a part of its radial movement.
  • the outer piston 22 can then with advantage be of a corresponding shape and slightly smaller than the pulp chamber 12 so as to slide within the pulp chamber.
  • the inner piston 24, on the other hand may be arranged to travel in the outer piston 22, suitably for its entire radial movement.
  • the inner piston 24 can then with advantage be of a corresponding shape and slightly smaller than the inside of the outer piston 22 so as to form a sliding relationship with the outer piston.
  • the means for wash liquid addition via the piston device 20 can for example involve arrangements for wash liquid addition from an internal wash liquid compartment in the piston device.
  • a wash liquid compartment 26 is defined between an end wall 22a of the outer piston 22 facing the perforated surface 12a, and a corresponding end wall 24a of the inner piston 24.
  • the end wall 22a of the outer piston 22 is in Fig. 1 opposite to the rod/shaft 22b of the outer piston 22, and the end wall 24a of the inner piston 24 is in Fig. 1 opposite to the rod/shaft 24b of the inner piston 24 .
  • the end wall 22a of the outer piston 22 is perforated so as to allow wash liquid into the pulp chamber 12.
  • the wash liquid is added to pulp handling zone Z2 via the piston device, i.e. from within the piston device itself, which in other words has a "built-in” wash liquid addition.
  • the wash liquid may be added to the space between the end wall 22a and the perforated surface 12a from a line, or other suitable means in the washing arrangement, which is external to the double piston.
  • the end wall 22a i.e. the pressing surface of the piston device

  • a housing (not shown) enclosing the pulp transport rotor 10 and the piston device 20.
  • the housing forms a controllable pressurized environment.
  • Such a housing comprises a closed space, which makes it easy to control and to operate.
  • the washing arrangement of the present invention can be used at many different positions in the pulping line.
  • it can for example take the place of conventional wash presses in order to improve the washing capacity and efficiency.
  • Figs. 2A to 2G illustrate various operational stages of a washing arrangement according to an exemplifying embodiment of the present invention.
  • the respective pulp chambers 12 rotate in steps to a pulp input zone Zl, a displacement and dewatering zone Z2, a pulp removal zone Z3, and a rotor cleaning zone Z4 of the washing arrangement 100.
  • the piston device 20 is arranged at the displacement and dewatering zone Z2.
  • cellulose pulp 14 is fed to the pulp chamber 12 (Fig. 2A).
  • the washing arrangement 100 suitably has a consistency of 3-12%, preferably 6- 12%.
  • the pulp chamber arrives at the displacement and dewatering zone Z2 (Fig. 2B), and this is where the actual washing takes place.
  • the consistency of the pulp 14 is increased by piston movement, suitably to a consistency of 10-30%, and preferably to a consistency of 15-25%. This is, in the double piston embodiment, accomplished by moving the outer piston 22 in a radially inward direction with respect to the pulp transport rotor 10, see
  • the outer piston 22 travels within the pulp chamber 12, its end wall 22a being pressed towards the pulp 14 in the pulp chamber 12. Filtrate flows through the perforated surface 12a and is in the illustrated example collected by an inner filtrate collection structure 16 arranged to transport the filtrate through the rotor shaft to one or both ends of the pulp transport rotor 10. (Naturally, the movement of the outer piston 22 also causes the inner piston 24, which is arranged inside the outer piston 22, to move with respect to the pulp chamber 12. However, there is no piston movement of the inner piston 24 with respect to the outer piston 22.)
  • displacement washing is performed of the pulp at its increased pulp consistency.
  • This is, in the double piston embodiment, accomplished by moving the inner piston 24 in a radially inward direction with respect to the pulp transport rotor 10.
  • the inner piston 24 slides within the outer piston 22, and there is, in other words, piston movement of the inner piston 24 with respect to the outer piston 22.
  • the piston movement of the inner piston 24 causes the wash liquid compartment (26 in Fig. 2C) to be compressed, whereby wash liquid is pressed through the end wall 22a of the outer piston 22 and into the pulp 14 in the pulp chamber 12. Dirty liquid in the pulp is replaced by the cleaner washing liquid and filtrate is led away from the pulp chamber 12 through the perforated surface 12a.
  • the displacement can for example take place at 5-200 kPa, and it is advantageous if the pressure is 50-20OkPa during the displacement phase.
  • the displacement can be performed at high consistency combined with high pressure, which is a considerable advantage of the present invention, leading to an efficient displacement and hence an enhanced washing performance.
  • the displacement may with advantage be followed by a further consistency increase by pressing the pulp to a desirable discharge consistency. This is, in the example double piston embodiment, accomplished by moving the outer piston 22 in a radially inward direction with respect to the pulp transport rotor 10. As the outer piston 22 travels further within the pulp chamber 12, its end wall 22a compresses the pulp 14 in the pulp chamber 12, causing more liquid to flow through the perforated surface 12a.
  • the washed pulp 14 is removed from the pulp chamber 12 in pulp removal zone Z3 (Fig. 2F).
  • the removed pulp is output from the washing arrangement 100 and transported to other process stages in the pulping line.
  • the pulp 14 suitably has a discharge consistency of 10-40%, preferably 15-30%.
  • the perforated surface 12a of the pulp chamber 12 is cleaned (Fig. 2G).
  • a stationary spray means 30 may suitably be arranged at zone Z4. Other means for cleaning the perforated surface 12a may also be used.
  • the means for cleaning the perforated surface is arranged to use the filtrate passing through the perforated surface 12a as cleaning liquid, which provides for efficient liquid utilization.
  • Another example embodiment has separate addition of cleaning liquid, e.g. from en external source. Nevertheless, it should be understood that rotor cleaning is optional and could be left out.
