Definitions
- the present invention relates to the manufacture of fine ceramics such as coatings, stoneware, porcelain, sanitary ware and earthenware health, in which a composition of raw materials is used that is composed of clays and other minerals.
- the invention relates to the granulation by agglomeration of compositions constituting the materials ceramic bonuses obtained via dry milling.
- Agglomeration is a general term that defines the increase in grain size by mechanical forces, in other words, covers the processes of agglomeration and union of highly dispersed particles in larger aggregates.
- agglomeration is the opposite technological to disintegrate or fragment.
- pill, extrudates, granules, pellets, tablets, etc. which is a particular denomination that results from the method technology used to obtain particle agglomerates; a classification by the way that distinguishes between agglomeration of mini particles proper, pressure agglomeration, spray and drying, and conformation without pressure.
- Cohesive forces are required for formation of stable aggregates of larger size from the particles Primary The nature of these forces are chemical and physical. These forces they can be contributed by the particles themselves or by adjuvants, such as binders or adhesives.
- a primary point is the selection among raw materials available that should be part of the composition, which are mainly clays and feldspars, sands, carbonates and kaolins. Different clays predominate in the raw material, and the other minerals, such as feldspar, silicon sands, calcium carbonate, etc., according to compositions planned to produce. Representing clays the field of soft materials, and other hard materials.
- raw materials are used, usually, as extracted from the mine, or after subjecting them to a minimum treatment, such as washing. Its natural origin demands, as rule, a prior homogenization that ensures the uniformity of their characteristics, which can be guaranteed by the mining company itself or by the producer of ceramic materials.
- the mixing is performed of the different components of the ceramic paste, it is subsequently subjected to a grinding process that can generally be in the wet phase, or in the phase dry as is the object of the present invention. In the latter, optionally the mixing can be done during grinding, or even during granulation proper.
- the composition has a very small particle size (less than 120 micrometers) and its behavior is excessively fluid, similar to a liquid; Such a fine powder makes its proper handling impossible. Subsequently, the fluidity necessary for filling press molds of any kind must also necessarily be inferior.
- the composition final mix is very variable depending on the final ceramic product at manufacture.
- the material resulting from the grinding has very different characteristics if that is done in dry phase or wet phase.
- the procedure currently used in the Manufacturing of floor and wall tiles is that of the wet track.
- the raw materials are milled in one phase liquid in the ball mill, which causes the suspension of materials finely suspended in water. Consequently, it becomes necessary to eliminate this water from the resulting suspension (called slip) until it reaches the moisture content necessary for further processing.
- the most method Used in the manufacture of ceramic products for this drying is the spray drying.
- the spray drying Prior to the atomization process, the mixing of the whole composition milled wet, within mills of balls, continuous or discontinuous, where they are ground and mixed together minerals that make up the composition. This composition is milled with a humidity percentage from 30% to 40%, that is, using excess water.
- Be thus generates a composition with a density between 1.30 to 1.40 Kg / l that then it is screened to unload in large rafts and with the help of stirrers and additives keep the composition moving avoiding its sedimentation.
- Each raft of these can contain more than 100,000 liters, for which is necessary to mix several millings.
- the atomization process is a process by which the suspension is sprayed in the form of droplets, which come into contact with air hot, and as a product you get a solid with a moisture content low.
- jets of the Composition in the form of a shower upstream, and countercurrent downwards the hot air is introduced at about 650oC.
- the granules of the composition fall in solid form with a humidity of 5 or 6 %.
- the atomizer is a stainless steel metal cone shaped device of large dimensions, according to the desired production generally of about 15 m of height by about 6 m in diameter. Its production is measured by liters of water evaporated and by solid product at its output in tons per hour.
- the fuel for the generation of hot air it is usually natural gas by providing Hot fumes with less pollution.
- the granules produced in the atomizers are uniform in terms of their spherical shape and a particle size average that oscillates within the appropriate values to feed the ceramic composition at the stage of manufacturing compressed products in the presses
- WANG JIAZHU document CN101011843 refers to the combined use of various materials, including talc, clays, for artificial walls with imitation stone.
- the mineral components are crumble, dry mix, dye is added, shape and calcine to high temperatures. Additionally they use the atomization process for conformation of the compositions.
- HAIRONG LIN patent CN101234888 refers also to the use of clays for imitation of natural stone in tiles and tiles. They use 10-15% low temperature porcelain stone dust, 10-20% medium temperature porcelain stone powder, 10-15% sand sodium stone, 5-10% high-grade porcelain sand, 10-20% sodium porcelain sand, 5-18% clay after mill balls, condensation agent and pigment. The method has the following stages:
- the GB1315553 patent is of interest claims, among others, to obtain a catalyst with a high content of clays mixed with amorphous and crystalline alumosilicates.
- Granulation is primarily based on spray drying, and without going into details makes a brief mention of the granulate in a mixer conventional.
- the atomizer uses 30% - 40% water on the mass to work, which entails an additional energy cost for evaporation of excess water. Additives are necessary to achieve a agglomeration with such mechanical resistance according to the physical efforts of particle handling during the successive stages of production of the finished ceramic product.
- the atomizer also drags the air different binders, additives, deflocculants; plus
- the response time to pass from the manufacture of a composition to that corresponding to another ceramic product is very high (a high inertia of the system); so in the atomizer or they are built more rafts and mills, or this response is very slow, days.
- the road little used at present for the granulation is the agglomeration of the milled composition in the dry phase and granule formation by adding small amounts of just water to maintain the plastic and cohesion properties inherent in many clays, prior to compression in the molds to confer the product shape wanted.
- the Starting material includes a particulate mineral such as nepheline, sienite and a binder, where many propose bentonite in amounts of only between 1-5% of the composition;
- the feed composition for the granulation process after wet phase grinding consists of a content of illicit, kaolinitic and / or refractory clays type in an order of 60%.
- Other minerals are of the flux type, different types of feldspar:
- the mixture of the components of the composition for Each ceramic product in question can be made in several ways:
- the components are mixed in each case depending on the type of raw material, the state in which it comes from deposit, and even the type of ceramic composition desired.
- the stage of preparation of the materials consists of the Dry milling of the elements that will form the ceramic composition.
- the elements of the composition can be ground separately, or the final composition with all its components already added. After performing the mixture of the selected components of the composition, this passes the milling process in dry phase.
- the mills used are of the type existing in the state of the art such as hammer mills or pendulums During grinding, the particles of the materials are fragmented and the particle size is brought to less than 120 micrometers.
- the composition in the form of fine powder passes to a mixing-granulating apparatus by agglomeration where an hour-amount -1 corresponding to the formula of the desired ceramic product is fed, and with an amount of water added determined for said specific composition, which corresponds only to saturation absorption.
- a granulate at the exit of the powder entering the apparatus, which has the morphology and mechanical resistance of particles suitable for transport and subsequent manipulation in the filling of molds.
- the continuous granulation apparatus is an apparatus cylindrical rotary horizontal arrangement, provided with bars with paddle-shaped limbs, usually contact form rectangular, which as the rotation of the device are moving to along its entire length the mass of the mixture of milled minerals with the water from a first side end to the second opposite side end.
- the mixture of minerals and water are dosed by the upper part of said first lateral end, and the already granulated material it is extracted by the bottom of said second opposite side end.
- These bars with vane-shaped ends are mounted on certain angles, approximately 90o, and help the granulation of the composition playing an important role in this one.
- the device has experienced certain modifications for the granulation of this type of compositions fundamentally in the coating of its internal chassis and its parts internal with a harder and more wear resistant material, reinforcing everything which will be in contact with the composition to be granulated.
- Coating inside the device and its internal tools is generally a Tungsten coating, powder applied by welding.
- the process takes place without external heating and only takes place the logical variations of temperature as a result of the hydration of the clays and friction with the coating of the internal parts of the apparatus of granulation.
- the granulation takes place at temperatures between 40-80 ° C.
- the Moisture inlet of the composition to the granulation apparatus is of the order of 0.5 to 2.5%.
- the entire product is micronized and with more moisture He would lose his binding property and he would cake.
- the granulate has the output a humidity of the order of 10 to 14% and its size varies between the fine (under 0.100) and 1.0 mm granules. It works in this range, introducing the least possible amount of water to granulate.
- the speed of rotation of the device is in the interval of 500 - 3000 rpm.
- the speed is dependent on the mass feeding / hour of material to be processed and consequently to size of the device.
- the speed should be adjusted to the composition and quantity to process, it will be larger if the device is smaller.
- the dry solids granulation technique very fine heterogeneous, with average particle sizes below 200 micrometers, it is not easy without the use of additives, deflocculants, etc.
- organic type binders such as resins is usual, starches or derivatives of carboxymethyl cellulose, or binders of the type inorganic such as silica gel, silicates, carbonates, and others.
- a process has been developed innovative for horizontal mixing type devices equipped with bars with paddle-shaped limbs, in which the influence of the different factors that can lead to effective granulation, that is, to the formation of granules that after drying have the properties sufficient mechanics for subsequent operations to obtain ceramic products
- the variables studied are the content of water to achieve granulation, the desired types of compositions of minerals, residence times in the rotary cylindrical apparatus. So, it has determined the optimal addition of water for each particular type of composition desired and, not least, the optimum speed of rotation, and of feeding of the mixture (equivalent to their residence times), also dependent on the type of ceramic composition.
- it is possible to achieve without use of binders, additives, deflocculants, etc., granules of the size adequate of the intended compositions, with sufficient mechanical strength for subsequent manipulations and with the lowest moisture content before of the drying operation.
- the clays are chemically hydrated alumina silicates, whose formula is: Al 2 O 3 ⁇ 2 SiO 2 ⁇ H 2 O.
- the clays have structures similar to micas and form flat hexagonal sheets.
- Clay minerals are characterized by two-dimensional corner sheets sharing tetrahedra of SiO 4 and AlO 4 . Tetrahedral sheets are always attached to octahedral sheets formed by small cations, such as aluminum or magnesium, coordinated by six oxygen atoms.
- the non-shared vertex of the tetrahedral sheet is also part of one side of the octahedral sheet but an additional oxygen atom is located above in the tetrahedral sheet at the center of the sixth tetrahedron. That oxygen atom binds to the hydrogen atom forming an OH group in the clayey structure.
- the layer will have or not residual electrical charge, or negative net charge. If the layers are loaded, that load is balanced by the cations located between the layers, such as Na + or K + .
- Clays have the ability to strongly absorb water molecules over specific sites of positive or negative charge (crystallization water) and an additional water corresponding to water molecules that are placed inside the pores existing in their granules (absorbed water physically). Clays are characterized by acquiring plasticity when mixed with an optimal amount of water. There are even expansive clays that are likely to produce large changes in volume, directly related to changes in the content of water absorbed within their layers.
- this arrangement of sheets or clays of clays capable of absorbing water molecules and entering into coordination with the hydrogens and hydroxyls of the water molecules, together with the interaction between sheets of different microgranes, must explain the binding capacity of many clays
- the present invention makes use of this physical-chemical property of the clays to achieve their agglomeration with the sole addition of a certain amount of water corresponding to the composition to be formulated according to the type of ceramic product desired.
- Other issues to be defined certainly lie in the speed of rotation and translation (the residence time), appropriate to the type of decomposition to be formulated in order to achieve the desired granule distribution.
- the granulated product is passed through a sieve where it is achieved Unify the size of the granules, usually for most of the ceramic products between 0.10 - 1.00 mm.
- the percentage of material granulate obtained at the exit is high, between 90-95%, the amount of dust ⁇ 0,100mm is between 6.0-8.0% and the amount of material recirculated for its Recovery is relatively low, at most 10%.
- the granulated material can then be used to storage for later shipment to compression.
- the material can be sent directly to compression according to the products desired ceramics such as rustic pavement, ceramic cladding, Gresified pavement or porcelain stoneware.
- the quality of the granulate is good, its Mechanical resistance is adequate and effectively supports the operation and subsequent handling.
- the mixing of the components of the composition can be done at the same time as its granulation after Dry milling.
- the plasticity of the milled clay composition by wet way it is lost according to type of clays when diluted excessively in water and necessarily granular at high temperatures (approx. 650oC), while that by the granulation process of the present invention the plasticity is keeps adding only a small amount of water and not being affected by The drying temperature of about 60 ° C. Consequently, in the pressing of granules produced according to the present invention less energy is spent, since apply a force approx. 10% lower
- the atomizer evaporates the water at temperatures of 650 oC next to the additives and fine particles of the minerals, partially decomposed or transformed.
- the response time of the granulation process of the invention necessary to move from the manufacture of a particular ceramic composition to a different one is very low (approx. One hour ).
- large investments in rafts and mills are necessary for the change to new compositions, and the change is costly in time and cleanings.
- the atomizers that produce compositions of red tones do not manufacture atomized white tones generally.
- the present granulation process of the invention after milling in the dry phase, it constitutes a new technology of Zero pollution, because water pollution is zero and its water consumption It is much inferior to granulation by the atomizing process. Like final production the investment in an installation is much cheaper the dry phase route than the aqueous route.

- a high content of Al 2 O 3 is observed in the composition which should indirectly indicate a higher content of clays and greater ease of granulation.
- the higher content of K 2 O is observed with respect to the other cations, which should indirectly indicate a higher content of feldspars (we do not take into account Fe 2 O 3 whose heavy cation itself is probably in the form of impurities of iron oxides).

- the tubes 3a located inside the lid (see Figure 2) of the body of said apparatus 1 at a first lateral end of the apparatus 1; the water inlet is through a tube with known flow.
- they can also serve the water feeds by sprinkling inlet and other as the water inlet through the shaft leaving the water through the tips of the blades to make contact with the solid composition, these two less common.
- the water comes into contact with the solid composition inside the granular machine, the two elements entering separately.
- the finer and more uniform the sprinkling of water the more homogeneous the distribution of particle sizes will be, that is, the closer the particle diameters will be to the average particle diameter.
- the ceramic composition is driven with the help of the bars 2 and their ends in the form of vanes 2a , which as the mass of the apparatus 1 moves along the length of said apparatus 1 the mass of the milled ore and the water dosed from the first end of its inlets to a second opposite side end of the apparatus 1.
- the exit through said second opposite side end of the granulated material is effected by gravity through the outlet nozzle 4 , located at the bottom of the apparatus .
- the powder feeding form of any type of ceramic composition is carried out by means of a tape, worm screw or any other solids feeding system towards the tubes 3a located inside the lid (see Figure 2), and of feeding of the water that is introduced in the tubes and allow to know with exactitude the quantities of tons / hour that are introduced of both materials,
- a rotation speed of 1500 rpm was used and 20 ton were granulated / hour of the ceramic composition.
- the inlet moisture of the composition to said granulation apparatus 1 was 0.6%.
- an amount of water equivalent to 9% moisture was added continuously in the fed dough, determined as the optimum amount to add to said ceramic coating composition during granulation.
- Said granulation was maintained at temperatures between 20-50 ° C.
- the granulate at the outlet showed a fluctuating humidity between 10.5-11.0% and the temperature at the outlet (5) was of the order of 45-50 ° C.
- the representative sample of the ceramic composition granulated presented the distribution of particle sizes shown at continued in Table 1. It should be noted that even for preparations of smaller volume, made preliminary in a smaller granulator with the same rotation speed of 1500 r.p.m. and a capacity of only 400 kg / h-1, the granulometry of the product was very similar, which speaks of the influence of rotation speed and addition of the optimum amount of water on the final granulometry of the product.
- Figure 4 shows differentially this particle size distribution, that is, is reflected as the quantity relative of the fraction, in percent by weight, that remains retained in the sieves of each mesh opening (in mm).
- the analysis of this dependence It has a two-dimensional character because there are two maximum diameters of grain. One is in the environment of 0.6 mm and the other in the region of 0.4-0.1 mm.
- This two-dimensional distribution of grain sizes can speak to us of a phenomenon of primary formation of coarse grains when water is added. Probably, then a secondary formation of the grains occurs small, which should be formed afterwards at the cost of fragmentation of the coarse ones during the transfer of the mass, and nucleation on them of grains secondary from dust not bound at the beginning.
- FIG. 5 An illustrative information of the morphology of prepared granules are provided by Figures 5 (5.1 and 5.2) and 6 (6.1 and 6.2). that present microphotographs obtained in a microscope with an x25 magnification times. Granules of different shapes and sizes are appreciated, where the shape is roughly approximates a spheroid shape and the size differences are consistent with the results of major, minor and fine grains obtained by granulometry using sieves.
- Pressing humidity of the granulated product 6%. Pressure to the sample: 280 kg / cm 2 (determined by hydraulic press). Mechanical dry strength: 40 Kg / cm 2 . Mechanical resistance of the pieces after cooking: 620 Kg / cm 2 .
- the mechanical resistance of the particles granules of the present embodiment have proved to be very satisfactory and During handling in the transport, handling and filling of molds behaved identically to that of the commercial products obtained by the spray drying process.
- the practical importance of this Invention is that the granulate does not alter its morphology in terms of size or grain shape during the whole process of packing, bulk transport, normal handling and mold filling.
- the product of the present granulation in almost its entirety has diameters of grains that are between 1.0 and 0.1 mm, which correspond adequately with the industrial requirements imposed for the handling of the ceramic composition because the amount of powders (less than 0.1 mm) is less that 7%, while the requirements currently accepted for handling of ceramic granules allow a fine content up to 14%.
- the granulate is not differentiated by its characteristics, to those of the granulated product currently marketed and produced by the atomization of the wet milled composition, being thus obtained even better Than some of such products.
- the response time for the Invention for change of the manufacture of a certain type of composition to another type of ceramic composition is very low, one hour, while the atomized It is very high, of days.
- the investment in the granulation installation according to the process of the Invention for milling obtained by dry route is much cheaper than by granulation by atomization of the millings obtained by aqueous route.
- the present process of granulation of the invention it constitutes a new zero pollution environmental technology, because the water and gas pollution is null and its water consumption is very lower.
