Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a device for electrostatically purifying and clarifying organic liquids of plant, animal or synthetic origin, namely industrial solvents, hydraulic liquids, cutting liquids for machine tools, lubricating oils and for heating, fuels, vegetable and animal oils and essences, edible or not, and the like.
- purification and clarification we mainly mean the elimination of particulate impurities suspended in the liquid, or substances of relatively high molecular weight in the more or less dissolved state, in particular in colloidal solutions.
- the nature of these impurities can be arbitrary; it may be dust, particles resulting from wear of moving parts, lubricating particles, extraction products, fibers or other components of plant or animal origin, residual impurities, etc.
- the impurities contained in such liquids generally consist of fibrous, resinous substances, polymers, amorphous or not, carbohydrates, complex lipids, unsaponifiable compounds, polypeptides and other materials of cytoplasmic origin.
- the elimination of these impurities by conventional means, in particular filtering, decantation and centrifugation is generally very difficult and expensive or even impossible, the liquid remaining opaque despite all the efforts made. We have therefore tried to resolve these problems by applying known techniques for electrostatic purification and clarification.
- the method according to the invention only consists in significantly reducing the water content of the liquid to be purified before subjecting it to treatment by electrostatic means. Indeed, it has been found that, for the electrostatic purification to take place, it is necessary and sufficient that the water content of the liquid to be purified is not greater than 0.3 percent. It is even preferable that it does not exceed 0.1 percent, or in some cases 0.03 percent. The lower the water content, the better the electrostatic purification takes place. It is therefore possible to control the degree of effectiveness thereof as required by adjusting the water content (degree of drying) of the liquid before the application of the electric field.
- the single figure shows, schematically and by way of example, the device for purifying organic liquids comprising a drying installation.
- the apparatus according to the present invention makes it possible to carry out the method according to the claims.
- This device includes a device for drying the liquid to be purified, disposed upstream of the purification device. electrostatic. As shown schematically in fig,
- the device according to the first embodiment comprises the following elements:
- the actual electrostatic purification device comprises a tank 1 containing the liquid to be purified and at least two electrodes, respectively 2 and 3, to create the necessary electric field inside the tank 1.
- the electrodes are connected to a source of high -tension 4.
- the electrodes 2 and 3 are mobile and are extracted from the liquid in an alternative or continuous manner.
- the electrodes 2 and 3 consist of a flexible, metallized, endless strip mounted between two rollers 5 and 6.
- the central core 7 fixed, disposed in the space separating the two branches of the flexible strip, ie 2, or 3, is provided to force the liquid to be purified through the passage in the center where the electric field is established as a function of the high voltage applied to the electrodes.
- rollers 6 While the rollers 6 rotate freely, the rollers 5 are driven by a mechanism not shown.
- Each movable electrode, 2 and 3 is associated with a scraper 8 which serves to rid the material of impurities which has deposited on it under the influence of the electric field.
- the scrapers 8 are connected to a tray 9 which receives the waste.
- a heating installation 10 makes it possible, if necessary, to carry out the purification of the oils at a temperature higher than ambient temperature.
- the drying device 11 which precedes the purification device proper can be an apparatus containing a 7 rotating cylinder 12 where the liquid which is sprayed on it spreads forming a thin layer.
- a vacuum pump 13 dries the liquid very effectively.
- the installation is completed by a supply tank 14, a tank for recovering the clean liquid 15, as well as the necessary conduits and pumps connecting the various elements.
- the first example of application of the process relates to the purification of a crude oil, obtained by pressure extraction of oil seeds from coffee.
- This coffee oil is presented in the raw state as a liquid of dark color and is opaque.
- the light from a 3 mW HeNe laser beam is immediately dispersed where it enters the liquid and forms a luminous ball.
- the scattering of light must be attributed to the colloidal particles which are the impurities which have to be removed.
- the penetration distance of the laser beam determined with the naked eye, reaches 16 to 20 mm.
- the oil On leaving the device, the oil is clarified.
- the impurities in the coffee oil are only deposited on the positive electrode which is connected to the earth's potential. This considerably facilitates the removal of deposits on the conveyor belt serving as an electrode.
- the strip circulating at a speed of 12 mm / min. is covered with a layer of residue about 1 mm thick. The losses, most of which are impurities, amount to 16% compared to the quantity of crude oil.
- the second example of application of the process relates to an organic liquid used in the electronic industry, ⁇ -butyrolactone.
- This liquid is used as a solvent to dissolve the uncured epoxy resin in the manufacture of printed circuits.
- the liquid is recovered after this operation and is regenerated for reuse. Regeneration according to the traditional method takes place by distillation, which means a significant energy expenditure.
- the contaminated liquid is introduced into the device described in the previous example where the contaminating material is deposited on the electrodes in the form of a conveyor belt under the effect of the electric field. Due to the lower viscosity of ⁇ -butyrolactone the flow rate reaches 4 to 5 liters per hour. The degree of clarification is sufficient for the liquid to be reusable as a solvent.
