Description

The invention relates to the pulp industry, in particular to the production of semi-cellulose from vegetable cellulose-containing material, and can be used to obtain stabilizing additives that are used in crushed stone and mastic asphalt mixtures, for technical grades of paper and cardboard, as well as for the production of cellulose intended for chemical processing , production of cotton wool, in the paper industry, etc.

A known method of producing semi-cellulose by loosening plant materials, alkaline cooking using NaOH, surfactant, T = 120-130 ° C for 1 hour, washing with 1-5 times the amount of clarified water, hydrocyclone treatment with clarified water, grinding, fine hydrocyclone treatment with clarified water, extraction, drying with air (Permanent technological regulation No. 4-2 “Production of cellulose ethers and esters”, approved on January 18, 1995 by the General Director of Engelsky OJSC “Khimvolokno”).

A known method of producing semi-cellulose, including the mechanical processing of cellulose-containing material by simultaneously loosening and cleaning it, cooking in an alkaline solution at a temperature of 130-140 ° C under a pressure of 3-4 atm for 180-210 min, washing, spinning, loosening and drying (RU 2078163, CL D04H 1/02, op. 1997).

The disadvantage of the above methods is the process of alkaline cooking in harsh conditions at a temperature of T = 120-140 ° C, a pressure of P = 2-4 atm.

The closest analogue is a method for producing semi-cellulose by simultaneously loosening and cleaning a cellulose-containing material, grinding, hardening in a NaOH solution and cleaning, alkaline cooking for 1.5-3 hours with a hydraulic module 1: (5-20), containing additional surfactants, washing, pressing and drying (RF patent on application No. 2005127650 with a decision on the grant of a patent dated 02.27.07).

The disadvantage of this method is the impossibility of obtaining semi-cellulose from flax raw materials with a high degree of pointedness, and in particular from flax straw and green flax.

The basis of the present invention is the creation of an effective economical method of producing semi-cellulose from flax raw materials with a high degree of pointedness and green flax, used for stabilizing additives, for technical grades of paper and cardboard, as well as for the production of cellulose intended for chemical processing, production of cotton wool, in paper industry, etc.

The problem is solved in such a way that in the method of producing semi-cellulose by sequentially loosening and cleaning the cellulose-containing material, locks, thermochemical processing, washing, pressing and drying, the material is additionally washed and cut before processing, thermomechanical processing is carried out, moreover, they take flax as cellulose-containing material Zelen or flax straw.

In an embodiment of the method according to claim 1, additionally after thermomechanochemical processing of the material, it is left to ripen in an alkaline solution.

Flax raw materials are used as cellulose-containing material: flax-greens - stems selected between flowering and early yellow ripeness of the flax plant (for 40-50 days) before the intensive accumulation of lignin (Zhivetin V.V., Ginzburg L., Olshanskaya O. M. Flax and its complex use. - M .: Inform-Knowledge, 2002. - 400 p.) And / or straw of oilseeds (flax-curls, flax-border) after separation of seeds.

The process according to the claims is carried out using the apparatuses and chemicals described below as follows.

Loosening and cleaning of flaxseed raw materials is carried out simultaneously with the help of bale feeders of types SRTSK, GRP to remove mechanical impurities, weeds, flowers, seeds.

The loosened raw materials through pneumatic transport enter the washer, where dust and dirt are removed with technical water containing 0.5% surfactant.

As surfactants, syntanol-ALM-10 is used - polyethylene glycol monoalkyl ether based on higher synthetic fatty alcohols according to TU 6-14-864-88 or Neonol AF _9-12- monoalkylphenol based on propylene trimers according to TU 2483-077-05766801-98.

Then flax raw materials are cut using a multi-disc mill type MMDR-379 to a cut length of 10-15 mm.

The lock is carried out in a screw apparatus with reverse zones of the type ASH-200 in an alkaline solution prepared in circulating water with a NaOH content of 10-60 g / l and a surfactant of 0.5 g / l for 15-60 minutes at a temperature of 95- 100 ° C. The hydraulic module is 1: (10-20).

Cooked pulp with a concentration of flax raw materials of 5-10% is subjected to thermo-mechanochemical processing in a screw apparatus with cam zones of the type ASh-200 at a temperature of 95-100 ° C for 15-30 minutes.

The spent alkaline solution, together with the non-cellulose components of flaxseed raw materials dissolved in it, is separated from flaxseed by decantation for possible reuse.

The semi-cellulosic pulp is washed in softened water to remove alkali residues from the semi-cellulose. The operation is carried out in 2 stages by aging in containers with water at a temperature of 80-90 ° C for 20-30 minutes in the first stage and 40-50 ° C for 20-30 minutes in the second stage. The hydraulic module during flushing is 1: (10-20) at each stage.

The spin operation is carried out on centrifuges such as AG or AOG to a moisture content of 40-50%.

The drying of half-cellulose is carried out by flue gases at a temperature of 140-160 ° C on a vibrating dryer.

The dried half-cellulose is fed into a cyclone to separate it from the air and then onto the packaging.

According to claim 1 after thermomechanochemical treatment, if it is necessary to improve the physicochemical parameters of half-cellulose, the ripening is carried out in the same alkaline solution and fortified to a NaOH concentration of 10-60 g / l at a temperature of 95-100 ° C for 30-60 minutes and served in 2 steps for washing with softened water as described above.

To prove the conformity of the claimed method to the criterion of "industrial applicability" we give specific examples of the method.

Example 1

100 kg of unpacked flax-greens is fed into a bale opener with a capacity of 22 kW and a capacity of 800 kg / h, where it is subjected to shredding and removal of random mechanical impurities, weeds, roots, etc. Loosened raw materials are washed in a cylindrical container of 3 m ^{3 of} industrial water containing 5 g / l of syntanol ALM-10.

The peeled flax raw materials are cut in a multi-disc mill MMDR-379 (power 10 kW, capacity 25 tons / day) to a fiber length of 10-15 mm.

Then chopped flax-greens and 2 m ^{3 of an} alkaline solution with a concentration of NaOH of 10 g / l in circulating water and 0.5 g / l of syntanol ALM-10 are fed into the ASH-200 screw machine with reverse zones (capacity 1000 kg / h), heated to a temperature of 100 ° C, and hold the lock for 60 minutes. After that, the pulp prepared by the mass pump (productivity - 470 m ³ / h) is transported to the ASh-200 screw machine containing cams, and thermomechanical treatment is carried out for 30 minutes at a temperature of 100 ° C.

At the end of the thermomechanochemical treatment and separation of the spent solution, flaxseed half-cellulose is washed twice in a container of 10 m ³ with softened water for 30 minutes at a temperature of 85 ± 5 ° C and for 30 minutes at a temperature of 35 ± 5 ° C. The hydraulic module is 1:20.

The flax pulp suspension is fed by a mass pump to a horizontal centrifuge (capacity 900 kg / h). Semi-cellulose is squeezed to a moisture content of 40%.

The drying of half-cellulose is carried out by feeding squeezed half-cellulose to a vibratory dryer. The temperature of the flue gas is 140-160 ° C. Semi-cellulose is obtained with a yield of 72%, with a mass fraction of α-cellulose of 92%, and a dynamic viscosity of 86 MPa · s.

Example 2-3 is carried out analogously to example 1, changing the process conditions. The examples are presented in table 1.

Example 4

The conditions are the same as in example 1, but to increase the mass fraction of α-cellulose, a ripening operation is introduced after thermomechanical processing. The pulp enters the ASH-200 auger apparatus with reverse zones (productivity 1000 kg / h), where the working alkaline solution is further strengthened to an alkali concentration of 10 g / l. Ripening is carried out for 60 minutes at a temperature of 100 ° C. After washing with softened water in two stages, the rest is carried out according to the conditions of example 1. Get semi-cellulose with a yield of 60%.

Example 5-6. Half-cellulose is obtained analogously to example 4, changing the process conditions (see table 1).

Example 7-12 The method is carried out analogously to examples 1-6, only as a source of raw materials use straw flax curly (table 1).

Physico-chemical parameters of the target product are determined in accordance with GOST 595-79 “Cotton cellulose” and GOST 31015-2002 “Asphalt concrete mixtures and crushed stone-mastic asphalt” (see table 2).

Analysis of the data in tables 1 and 2 shows that the proposed method is effective, since it allows you to get half cellulose, used to obtain stabilizing additives, for technical grades of paper and cardboard, as well as for the production of cellulose intended for chemical processing, production of cotton, in the paper industry and etc. And the use of oil straw (waste products of linseed oil) or flax greens (stalks selected between flowering and early yellow ripeness of the flax plant (for 40-50 days) as a raw material significantly reduces the cost of half-cellulose.
