Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for separating material to be separated in a centrifugal force separator (ZKS) and a device for carrying out this method.
- ZKS centrifugal force separator
- ZKS enable the separation of particles according to their density in relation to the density of a separation medium. Originally developed for processing coal, ZKS are now used for a wide variety of sorting tasks.
- ZKS typically comprise cylindrical housings, the longitudinal axis of which is usually oriented at an angle, for example between 20° and 40°, to the horizontal during operation.
- Separating medium is usually introduced through an involute-shaped inlet in the housing shell in a lower area of the ZKS, so that a turbulent flow with an air core is generated along the longitudinal axis of the ZKS and the separating medium exits again through an involute-shaped outlet in the upper area of the housing shell.
- Material to be separated is brought in through an inlet which is usually arranged centrally on an upper end face of the cylindrical housing.
- Low-density particles float at the interface between the separation medium and the air core and are carried by gravity along the longitudinal axis of the ZKS to an outlet centrally located at the lower rear of the cylindrical housing.
- the particles contained in the material to be separated can thus be sorted according to their density in relation to the density of the separation medium.
- ZKS are, inter alia, also under the designations dense media separator (DMS), cylindrical cyclone separator (cylindrical cyclone separator ), dynamic separator (engl, dynamic separator ); or known under the product names Dyna Whirlpool Separator, TriFlo Separator and LARCODEMS (large coal dense media separator).
- DMS dense media separator
- CMS cylindrical cyclone separator
- dynamic separator engaging, dynamic separator

Since it is not absolutely necessary for the multiple compulsory conveying devices to open into a single opening in the housing of the ZKS.
- the inlet for the material to be separated can also include several adjacent openings, each of which is connected to a compulsory conveying device. It is particularly preferred if the material to be separated is introduced into the ZKS via at least two, in particular at least three forced conveying devices; or if the device according to the invention has at least two, in particular at least three forced conveying devices connected to the inlet for the material to be separated.
- compulsory conveying devices enable even greater flexibility when introducing the material to be separated.

- the ratio in which the different separated goods are introduced into the ZKS can be used to introduce the ZKS.
- the introduction preferably takes place via the compulsory conveying devices in different directions which deviate from the longitudinal axis of the ZKS.
- the compulsory conveying devices are arranged at an angle to one another.
- the compulsory conveying devices therefore preferably each have a longitudinal axis, the longitudinal axes being arranged at an angle to one another.
- the longitudinal axis of a forced conveying device is essentially aligned with the longitudinal axis of the ZKS, while the longitudinal axis of at least one further forced conveying device is aligned at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the ZKS, preferably between 5° and 80°, even more preferably between 10° and 60°, in particular between 15° and 45°.

- the method according to the invention and the device according to the invention are suitable for separating a wide variety of types of waste, for example minerals, coal and waste of any kind, in particular post-consumer waste or post-industrial waste.
- the use of the method according to the invention for plastic waste or used plastic is particularly advantageous. Due to their shape, volume and low weight, waste, in particular used plastic, very easily leads to blockages in ZKS, as are used in the prior art. In particular, flat particle collectives, e.g. plastic foils, can easily get caught and agglomerate.
- the material to be separated therefore includes plastics.
- the method according to the invention and the device according to the invention are excellently suited for the separation of such materials, since the forced conveyance prevents blockages or significantly reduces them.

- the proportion of polyolefins, in particular the proportion of PE and/or PP, in the material to be separated is at least 1% by weight, preferably at least 5% by weight, more preferably at least 10% by weight, in particular is at least 20% by weight.
- the material to be separated is moistened before being introduced into the ZKS. It has been shown that the use of wet or moist material to be separated can lead to a particularly efficient separation process, since the transfer of material from the air column into the separation medium can be facilitated. For example, the transfer of hydrophobic plastics contained in the material to be separated from the air core into water as the separating medium can be facilitated.
- the material to be separated is preferably moistened with the same liquid that is also used as the separating medium.
- the material to be separated into the ZKS preferably contains at least 0.1% by weight of separation medium, preferably at least 0.5% by weight, even more preferably at least 1% by weight, in particular at least 5% by weight.
- the separating material introduced into the ZKS preferably contains less than 80% by weight of separating medium, preferably less than 50% by weight, even more preferably less than 25% by weight, in particular less than 15% by weight.
- the material to be separated into the ZKS preferably contains between 0.1 and 80% by weight of separating medium, preferably between 0.2 and 50% by weight, even more preferably between 0.5 and 25% by weight, even more preferably between 1 and 20% by weight, in particular between 5 and 15% by weight, of separating medium.
- the material to be separated consists of a mixture of solid particles and liquids, in particular oil and solids, for example metal shavings.
- Metal shavings often have an oily, smeary coating which is applied to metal components and metal shavings correspondingly resulting therefrom as a result of metal processing operations.
- the centrifugal separator the Metal chips are separated from the oily coating and washed, so to speak.
- the heavier metal chips are conveyed along the inside of the housing jacket of the ZKS by means of the separating medium to the separating medium outlet and the separated oil is conveyed centrally to the light material outlet.
- a washing effect is therefore also included in the separation with water or aqueous solutions.
- the separating medium preferably contains water, in particular the separating medium consists of water, above all if the material to be separated contains plastics, in particular polyolefins. Polyolefins with a lower density than water can thus be efficiently separated from other materials with a higher density.
- the separating medium contains at least oil (e.g. in an emulsion), or preferably consists of oil.
- the separation medium contains at least methanol, ethanol and/or isopropanol.
- the separating medium can have aqueous solutions which are provided with salts or suspensions (water with fine particles such as lime powder or ferrosilicon). Furthermore, water/alcohol mixtures or oils can be used as a separating medium for separating products to be separated at a density of less than 1 g/cm 3 in particular.
- the separating medium has at least fat solvents, such as surfactants, in particular cationic, anionic and/or amphoteric surfactants.
- surfactants in particular cationic, anionic and/or amphoteric surfactants.
- oily deposits adhering to the material to be separated can be rinsed or better detached from the material to be separated.
- the centrifugal force separator has a (cylindrical) housing with an end face on which an inlet for the material to be separated is provided.
- the housing is inclined in particular with respect to a floor surface (e.g. at an angle between the central axis of the cylindrical housing and the floor plane of 20 to 70, in particular 45 degrees) and the end face on which the separation material inlet is provided is the upper end face.
- the forced conveying device is coupled on the front side in such a way that the material to be separated can be forced to flow through the inlet for the material to be separated.
- the material to be separated is thus guided through the inlet for the material to be separated at least up to the point where it enters the housing and is correspondingly forcibly conveyed. There is therefore no uncontrolled and unguided introduction of separation material, such as with pure gravity transport.
- a compulsory conveying device is, for example, a screw conveyor, the conveying screw of which extends to the inlet for the material to be separated or, for example, protrudes through the inlet for the material to be separated into the interior of the housing.
- the forced conveying device has an outlet area from which the material to be separated can be forced into the housing.
- the forced conveying device can have a cylindrical outer housing, inside which a conveying device, such as a screw conveyor, is arranged.
- the outlet area is formed at a free end of the forced conveying device, the forced conveying device being arranged in such a way that the outlet area is present at the separation material inlet or within the housing.
- the outlet area has an outlet opening on a front side at the free end of the compulsory conveying device.
- the material to be separated can thus be discharged into the housing in the axial direction or in the conveying direction.
- the outlet area has an outlet opening on a central surface of the compulsory conveying device.
- the separating well can be delivered transversely to the axial direction or to the conveying direction in the Ge housing.
- a discharge transverse to the axial direction can have advantages in the separation in that the material to be separated is already introduced with the introduction direction towards the edge of the housing and thus a faster removal of the heavy fraction by means of the edge flow of the separation medium is made possible.
- the material to be separated can be introduced primarily via the open end face of the screw conveyor or spiral conveyor, but it can also be introduced via the lateral surface.
- bores or longitudinal slots, or a sieve/perforated plate can be provided in order to disperse the particles or the material to be separated more uniformly, in order to avoid punctiform overloading by larger agglomerates.
- the outlet area of the compulsory conveying device is located inside the housing.
- the compulsory conveying device is arranged displaceably relative to the housing in such a way that a position of the outlet area inside the housing can be adjusted along the longitudinal axis of the (cylindrical) housing.
- the compulsory conveying device has a longitudinal axis which runs through the material inlet, the compulsory conveying device being displaceable along the longitudinal axis (central axis) relative to the (e.g. cylindrical) housing.
- the forced conveying device can be moved and the depth of thrust of the forced conveying device into the housing is changed. This allows the dwell time of the material to be separated, i.e. e.g. the particles, to be changed in the ZKS. This can be advantageous for certain separation tasks, e.g. if you increase the residence time.
- the device has a safety device which is set up to determine an impermissible internal pressure of the centrifugal force separator and/or a malfunction of the compulsory conveying device, the safety device is coupled to the drive unit in such a way that an operational stop of the drive unit can be set if an impermissible internal pressure of the centrifugal force separator is determined and/or there is a malfunction of the compulsory conveying device.
- the outlet area with outlet openings there At the end of the conveyor section, for example inside the housing, is the outlet area with outlet openings there, so that the material to be separated can be discharged in the housing at a desired position.
- An exact separation can thus be predetermined and defined, since, for example, at the desired position at which the material to be separated leaves the compulsory conveying device, a predetermined path to the separation medium outlet for the heavy fraction and a light material outlet for the light fraction can be set.
- an overpressure can arise in the cylinder in the event of an overload.
- the overpressure or jamming can be measured via the rotation of the forced conveying device, its electric motor, or by means of a pressure sensor, and an emergency stop can be initiated.
- FIG. 1 schematically shows a device according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention having a compulsory conveying device.
- FIG. 2 schematically shows a device according to another exemplary embodiment of the invention, having several compulsory conveying devices.
- FIG. 3 schematically shows a device according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention, having a compulsory conveying device whose outlet area is inside the housing of the centrifugal separator.
- Fig. 1 shows a device according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention.
- the device has a ZKS 1 with a cylindrical housing 4, in which a front side 2 and an opposite rear side 3 are connected to one another via a substantially cylindrical housing jacket 4'.
- the ZKS 1 also has a separation material inlet 5 arranged essentially centrally on the end face 2 and a light material outlet 6 arranged essentially centrally on the rear side.
- the essentially cylindrical housing jacket 4 ′ has an involute-shaped separating medium inlet 7 adjoining the rear side 3 of the ZKS and an involute-shaped separating medium outlet 8 adjoining the end face 2 of the ZKS 1 .
- the device shown also has a compulsory conveying device 9 connected to the inlet 5 for the material to be separated.
- the longitudinal axis 10 of the ZKS 1 is essentially aligned with the longitudinal axis 11 of the compulsory conveying device
- the compulsory conveying device 9 is connected to a pre-position container 12 which has an agitator 13 .
- separation medium 14 is introduced into the separation medium inlet 7, preferably by a variable speed pump (not shown), so that a vortex flow with an air core is generated along the longitudinal axis 10 of the ZKS 1 and the separating medium exits the ZKS again through the separating medium outlet 8 .
- Separating material is forcibly conveyed from the storage container 12 through the compulsory conveying device 9 into the separation material inlet 5 on the end face 2 of the ZKS 1 and is thus introduced essentially in the direction of the longitudinal axis 10 of the ZKS 1 .
- Low density material floats at the interface between the separation medium and the air core and is stretched along the longitudinal axis
- the longitudinal axis 10 of the ZKS 1 is preferably aligned at an angle of 20° to 40° to the horizontal, so that the transport of the low-density material from the separation material inlet 5 to the light material outlet 6 is ensured by gravity.
- material of higher density passes from the air core into the separating medium, is pressed radially outwards by the centrifugal force and leaves the ZKS 1 together with the separating medium through the separating medium outlet 8 as a heavy material fraction 15.
- the direction of movement of the separating medium and the lower-density material to be separated are therefore opposite in the embodiment shown.
- the separating medium flows in a turbulent path from the back 3 of the ZKS 1 in the direction of the front 2, whereas particles with low density move from the separation material inlet 5 on the front 2 to the light material outlet 6 on the rear 3 of the ZKS.
- Fig. 2 shows another preferred embodiment of the inventions to the invention device.
- the ZKS 1 essentially corresponds to the ZKS 1 of the embodiment shown in FIG.
- the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 has three compulsory conveying devices 9, 9', 9'', which are connected to the material inlet 5 of the ZKS 1.
- the longitudinal axes 11, 11', 11'' of the compulsory conveying devices 9, 9', 9'' are arranged at an angle to one another and to the longitudinal axis 10 of the ZKS.
- the forced conveying devices 9, 9', 9'' can in turn be connected to reservoirs (not shown), preferably having agitators or discharge trays.
- the forced conveying devices 9, 9', 9'' can end in a common forced conveying section, in which further forced conveying takes place, for example by means of another forced conveying device (e.g. with a screw conveyor), so that the separating medium is forced into the interior of the housing 4 .
- the common forced conveying section can be formed with a further forced conveying device and can be formed in accordance with the embodiments of the forced conveying device 9 from FIGS.
- the method according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention can be carried out essentially analogously to the method described above with reference to FIG.
- the material to be separated is brought into the ZKS 1 via three separate compulsory conveying devices 9, 9', 9''.
- different material to be separated for example in relation to the composition or the size distribution, can be introduced via the separate compulsory conveying devices 9, 9', 9''.
- the compulsory conveying devices 9, 9', 9'' can are operated with different conveying speeds, which are adapted to the respective material to be separated.
- FIG. 3 shows a compulsory conveying device 9 whose outlet region 19 is inside the housing 4 of the centrifugal separator 1 .
- the centrifugal force separator 1 is designed similarly to the embodiment from FIG.
- the centrifugal force separator 1 has, in particular, a cylindrical housing 4, which has an end face 2 along its longitudinal axis (central axis) 10, on which a separation material inlet 5 is provided.
- the housing 4 is inclined in particular with respect to a floor plane 21 (e.g. at an angle between the central axis of the cylindrical housing and the floor plane 21 of 20 degrees to 70 degrees and the end face 2, on which the separation material inlet 5 is provided, is the upper end face.
- the Compulsory conveying device 9 is coupled to the end face 2 in such a way that the material to be separated can be forcibly conveyed through the material to be separated inlet 5.
- the material to be separated is thus guided through the material to be separated inlet 5 at least up to the point where it enters the housing 4 and is correspondingly forcibly conveyed.
- the forced conveying device 9 has an outlet region 19 from which the material to be separated can be forced into the housing 4 .
- the compulsory conveying device 9 can have a cylindrical outer housing, inside which a conveying device, such as a screw conveyor, is arranged.
- the outlet area 19 is formed at a free end of the forced conveying device 9, the forced conveying device 9 being arranged in such a way that the outlet area 19 is present inside the housing 4, as shown in FIG.
- the outlet area 19 has an outlet opening 20 on a jacket surface of the compulsory conveying device 9 .
- the material to be separated can thus be discharged into the housing 4 transversely to the axial direction 11 or to the conveying direction.
- a discharge transverse to the axial/longitudinal direction 11 can have particular advantages in the separation to the effect that the material to be separated is already introduced with the introduction direction towards the inner surface of the housing 4 and thus a faster removal of the heavy fraction is made possible by means of the marginal flow of the separation medium.
- the outlet region 19 of the outlet opening 20 is therefore inside the housing 4 .
- the compulsory conveying device 9 is also arranged to be displaceable along the longitudinal axis 11 along a (particularly translational) direction of movement 18 relative to the housing 4 in such a way that a position of the outlet area 19 in the interior of the housing 4 can be adjusted along the longitudinal axis 11 of the cylindrical housing 4 is.
- the position of the outlet opening 20 can be set arbitrarily inside the housing 4.
- An outer pipe (pipe section (lining pipe)) of the forced conveying device 9 can be provided and tightened, for example by means of a seal 17, e.g. a flat seal, flexible sealing compound or an O-ring, whereby a tight connection can be achieved.
- the seal 17 can be formed, for example, via a collar with sealing lips or, if the inlet for the material to be separated is configured as a piece of pipe (lining pipe), via an annular space seal or compression ring seal.
