Definitions

  • Chlorine dioxide (ClO 2 ) is of considerable industrial importance and has found use as a disinfectant and in the bleaching of wood pulp, fats, oils and flour. Generally, chlorine dioxide is used as a bleaching agent and for removing tastes and odors from water and other liquids. More recently, it has been used as an anti-pollutant.

  • the reaction process may be carried out generally in an exemplary reactor shown in FIG. 1.
  • the reactor comprises a tubular vessel 1 having a valve-controlled bottom inlet 2 and a valve-controlled top exit 3.
  • the tubular vessel may be made of glass, titanium, a steel alloy, such as known under the name Hastalloy C or any suitable composite material.
  • An ultraviolet radiation source e.g., one or several quartz lamps 4, is arranged within the space 5 defined by the tubular vessel 1.
  • the quartz lamp is shown to have a distinct shape, it will be appreciated that other shapes, such as U-shaped quartz lamps, may also be used.
  • the electrical connections for the quartz lamp are diagrammatically indicated by reference numeral 6.
  • the UV source may be arranged outside the vessel.
  • the UV lamps may be coated with Teflon ® or generic PTFE or any suitable anti-corrosive layer to increase the life and efficiency of the lamp.
  • a shiny reflector such as of aluminum
  • the reflector may be arranged within the reaction space if it has a surface coating resistant to the reactants.
  • the reactor wall material may be of the UV transmitting kind if the UV source is arranged outside the reactor space, but may be nontransmitting if the light source is located within the reactor space.
  • the wall may thus be of glass, plastic, steel alloy or titanium, provided the material is resistant to the reactants.
  • a highly polished aluminum reflector should advantageously be used to contain the intensity of the radiation in the chamber space of the reactor if the material transmits UV radiation.
  • the reaction is improved for example 25% by adding a protonating catalyst for example, elemental carbon exposure to UV radiation at 200-280nm.
  • the kinetics of the reaction are also improved as the reaction rate increases with the amount of adsorptive surface of the elemental carbon that is included with the reactants as exposed surface (rod-granular). Carbon is not a reactant, but acts as a catalyst.
  • Suitable UV wavelength ranges include 180-300 nm, 220-260 nm, 240-250 nm, and of 254 nm. Protonation may not be required for the total duration of production process.
  • An initial protonating source may be useful in triggering the catalytic conversion of chlorate to chlorine dioxide.
  • organic acids and inorganic acids or any proton donor that ionize with the NaClO 3 are suitable.
  • extraction of ClO 2 from the reactants is accomplished with for example, air stream (positive pressure) or vacuum (negative pressure) or heat or extreme cooling of the reactants or any other standard procedure to remove gas from a reaction chamber.
  • the overall reaction of converting a precursor to ClO 2 is enhanced by irradiating the precursor (e.g., NaClO 3 or any suitable precursor to generate chlorine dioxide) serially, wherein a specific "pause" period is maintained during which no irradiation is performed.
  • a specific "pause" period is maintained during which no irradiation is performed.
  • This series of irradiation followed by a period of no irradiation e.g., 1/20 to 1/5 of the time for irradiation
  • the serial irradiation or pulsing is
  • the time interval between the irradiation may vary depending on the strength of UV lamps and the duration of the irradiation, the dimensions of the container and the percent yield desired. For example, the pause period may extend from a few seconds to a few minutes.
  • the pause period may be a fraction of the time required for the irradiation.
  • the pause period may vary from 1/30 or 1/20 to 1/5 of the time required for the irradiation phase.
  • the frequency of the pulses may also vary. The pulsing mode need not be carried out from beginning to end and may be performed towards the later stages of the production.
  • the inventive methods described herein involve the surprising effects achieved by exposing the reactants to a polarized radiation at wavelength from about 200 to about 400 nm, e.g., from about 240 to about 360 nm.
  • the wavelength can be varied about these parameters, however, without limiting the scope of the invention, in one embodiment, increased ClO 2 production is achieved when the polarized UV radiation is held constant at about 254 nm.
  • the polarized radiation such as, for example, polarized UV light may be about 75% polarized or about 80% polarized or about 95% polarized or about 100% polarized. Lower or higher percent polarized light can be used depending on the yield of chlorine dioxide produced.
  • the angle of polarized light may also vary relative to unpolarized light source.
  • the intensity of the radiation can vary from about 1,000 microwatts/cm 2 (or "mwatts/cm 2 ") to about 60,000 microwatts/cm 2 .
  • the methods of this invention can be carried out in situ or ex situ. Furthermore, the chlorine dioxide formed need not be separated from the reaction mixture; however, the entire reaction mixture, including the chlorine dioxide formed, may in most instances, be used as a whole since the other components of the reaction do not exert a detrimental influence on the application properties. Thus, the chlorine dioxide containing reaction product obtained as a result of the polarized radiation may be expelled from the reaction space and conveyed to a place of use, or, if desired, after completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture may be passed through water to form dissolved chlorine dioxide or chlorous acid.
  • One or more UV lamps can be positioned such that there exists a time interval between irradiations.
  • the one or more UV lamps can be turned off and on such that there exists a specific period during which there is no irradiation. This cycle of irradiation followed by a pause, enhances the yield of chlorine dioxide.
