Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of pickling objects provided with a coating, in particular painted or varnished objects, by soaking in a solvent bath.
- the object of the invention is a method for removing the separable layers from the objects covered therewith, in particular for stripping varnished objects which, despite the low operating costs, produces no waste, only requires 'a low consumption of raw material and produces only a small and negligible emission into the atmosphere.
- this task is solved, in a process according to which the objects are introduced into a closed tank and treated with a liquid fluid, the mixture of treatment fluid and pickled material being then collected, the treatment fluid being separated from the pickled material, inert gas being introduced into the tank after the removal of the layers has been completed and the gas leaving the tank being condensed to separate the released treatment fluid, in that coated articles are introduced into the hermetically sealed tank, that inert gas is introduced into said tank until a residual oxygen content of 3% by volume is obtained, which the gas leaving the inerting tank heats up by heat exchange.
- inert gas introduced into the tank only after inerting a pickling product is introduced into the tank, in which the objects to be pickled are soaked, only after the pickling operation and before t the drying of the pickled objects the mixture of coating and pickling product is pumped out of the tank, that the gas mixture leaving the tank during drying is cooled by the inert gas introduced into the tank by heat exchange before the condensation of the pickling product and the inert gas is discharged into the atmosphere after the pickling product has condensed.
- the removal of the layers takes place with a solvent which is known per se but, according to the invention, the process has therefore takes place under an inert atmosphere.
- the inert gas can be evacuated into the atmosphere, possibly passing through an appropriate separation device, without harmful substances being entrained.
- the inert gas used in the layer removal process is also used for the separation of the solvent and the material forming the protective coating.
- the inert gas evacuates the vaporized solvent and brings it to condensation in a suitable device.
- the separated solvent can then be reused in the operating process, the use of polluting and expensive chemicals being therefore kept within very low limits during the implementation of the process.
- the solvent When the solvent is separated from the solvent-coating material mixture, an appropriate concentration of this mixture can be obtained in order to make it reusable. This is for example the case of removing the varnish.
- the varnish mixed in the solvent can be reused with the desired concentration for a new varnishing process, for obtaining pigments, etc. In this way, it is avoided to direct it on a particular discharge and the disadvantage which results for the environment is removed.
- nitrogen is used as inert gas.
- nitrogen can be used particularly favorably in the process which is the subject of the invention.
- the gas escaping from the bath is cooled by heat exchange with the inert gas which is introduced. If, for example, nitrogen gas is removed from a pressure tank containing liquid nitrogen, the temperature of the nitrogen gas drops, because the heat of evaporation is removed. If the nitrogen which is introduced by heat exchange is now heated, this leads to cooling of the nitrogen-vapor mixture of the solvent. Thereby the solvent vapor can condense and the liquid condensate can be collected while pure nitrogen escapes into the atmosphere.
- the pickled objects are still impregnated with solvent.
- inert gas is used to separate the solvent from the coating material.
- the tank into which the solvent-coating material mixture is pumped can be reheated. If nitrogen is used as the inert gas and the usual solvent, reheating involves a temperature of around 60 ° C.
- the inert gas used for the evaporation and condensation of the solvent is preferably kept in a closed circuit, the quantity of inert gas required being thereby reduced to a minimum.
- the product circulating in the circuit will preferably be made inert by means of an inert gas.
- the process which is the subject of the invention is characterized by optimal reuse of the raw materials used. With very low operating costs, there is no production of waste. The quantities of products emitted with the process which is the subject of the invention are clearly below the authorities' recommendations. The amounts of energy necessary for implementing the process which is the subject of the invention are very low. Due to the handling of the solvent, which takes place only in an inert atmosphere, work safety is clearly better than average, the danger of fire and explosion being greatly reduced. The influences exerted on workstations with regard to noise and other nuisances are minimal. Finally, the process which is the subject of the invention can be largely automated.
- An installation according to the invention with a tank receiving the objects and which can be connected to an inert gas tank via a supply line and a shut-off valve, a tank of pickling product connected to the tank is characterized in that the tank can be hermetically sealed and can be connected to the atmosphere via a second shut-off valve, an exchanger and a condenser, as the inert gas tank is connected to the tank via the exchanger, that the pickling product tank is connected to the tank via a pump and that another pump for pumping the pickling product-varnish mixture out of the tank is planned.
- the installation which is the subject of the invention makes it possible to render the pickling tank inert before it is filled with solvent and drying of the pickled objects when the solvent-coating material mixture is removed. Between these phases of the process, the shut-off valves are closed, which makes it possible to maintain at a relatively small value the quantity of inert gas necessary for such a process. Leakage of inert gas to the atmosphere, in particular during the drying phase, does not represent any disorder for the environment, since appropriate precautions make it possible to separate the solvent which is contained therein in the form of vapor.
- the heat exchanger of the installation which is the subject of the invention is preferably an evaporator of a refrigeration unit.
- This evaporator ensures sufficient cooling of the gaseous mixture constituted by the solvent vapor and by the inert gas, so that the solvent vapor can be condensed and separated, the cooled inert gas being able, according to one embodiment of the invention, to be brought by via a pipe in the thickening tank and which, according to another embodiment of the invention, can be used for cooling in a recuperator brought to the evaporator.

Description
L'invention concerne un procédé de décapage d'objets pourvus d'un revêtement, en particulier d'objets peints ou vernis, par trempage dans un bain de solvant.The invention relates to a method of pickling objects provided with a coating, in particular painted or varnished objects, by soaking in a solvent bath.
Il existe plusieurs procédés de décapage d'objets peints ou vernis, dont l'un est fondé sur la pyrolyse, c'est-à-dire l'incinération des couches de vernis à des températures entre 500°C et 700°C. Ses inconvénients sont une importante consommation d'énergie, une charge thermique imposée aux objets, des difficultés de manipulation des objets, ainsi qu'une diffusion d'importantes quantités de substances nocives dans l'atmosphère. Un autre procédé connu utilise le sablage pour enlever les couches de vernis. Ce procédé prend relativement beaucoup de temps et pose des problèmes pour éliminer le produit de sablage du vernis. En outre, le stockage du vernis nécessite un dépôt particulier. Un autre procédé connu consiste à décaper le vernis en soumettant les objets à un jet de vapeur à haute pression. Dans ce cas également, la quantité d'énergie requise est relativement importante et un dépôt particulier est nécessaire pour le stockage.There are several methods of pickling painted or varnished objects, one of which is based on pyrolysis, that is to say the incineration of the varnish layers at temperatures between 500 ° C and 700 ° C. Its drawbacks are high energy consumption, a thermal load imposed on the objects, difficulties in handling the objects, as well as the diffusion of large quantities of harmful substances into the atmosphere. Another known method uses sandblasting to remove the layers of varnish. This process is relatively time consuming and poses problems in removing the sanding product from the varnish. In addition, the storage of the varnish requires a special deposit. Another known method consists in pickling the varnish by subjecting the objects to a jet of high pressure steam. In this case too, the amount of energy required is relatively large and a special deposit is necessary for storage.
On connaît également le décapage à l'aide d'ultra-sons, avec objets à décaper plongés dans un bain de solvant qui est effectué sous atmosphère normale. Dans ce cas, l'énergie nécessaire n'est pas aussi importante que dans le cas des procédés décrits précédemment, mais il existe également un inconvénient sur l'environnement du fait du dépôt du vernis détaché qui est encore en partie chargé de solvant. Etant donné que le solvant est inflammable à des températures relativement basses, le danger d'incendie ou d'explosion du solvant est très grand.Pickling is also known using ultrasound, with objects to be stripped immersed in a solvent bath which is carried out under a normal atmosphere. In this case, the energy required is not as great as in the case of the processes described above, but there is also a drawback on the environment due to the deposition of the detached varnish which is still partly charged with solvent. Since the solvent is flammable at relatively low temperatures, the danger of fire or explosion of the solvent is very great.
Enfin, un décapage à chaud ainsi qu'un décapage à froid sur la base de procédés utilisant des produits chimiques spéciaux, qui sont eux-mêmes à l'origine de problèmes de stockage, ont été développés. En outre, les quantités de produits chimiques nécessaires sont considérables et la durée du procédé est relativement importante.Finally, hot pickling as well as cold pickling on the basis of processes using special chemicals, which are themselves the source of storage problems, have been developed. In addition, the quantities of chemicals required are considerable and the duration of the process is relatively long.
Par conséquent, le but de l'invention est un procédé pour enlever les couches séparables des objets qui en sont recouverts, en particulier pour décaper les objets vernis qui, malgré des coûts d'exploitation faibles, ne produit pas de déchet, ne nécessite qu'une faible consommation de matière première et ne produit qu'une émission faible et négligeable dans l'atmosphère.Consequently, the object of the invention is a method for removing the separable layers from the objects covered therewith, in particular for stripping varnished objects which, despite the low operating costs, produces no waste, only requires 'a low consumption of raw material and produces only a small and negligible emission into the atmosphere.
Conformément à l'invention cette tâche est résolue,dans un procédé selon lequel les objets sont introduits dans un réservoir fermé ettraités avec un fluide liquide, le mélange de fluide de traitement et de matériau décapé étant ensuite collecté, le fluide de traitement étant séparé du matériau décapé, du gaz inerte étant introduit dans le réservoir après l'achèvement de l'opération d'enlèvement des couches et le gaz sortant du réservoir étant condensé pour séparer le fluide de traitement dégagé, en ce que des objets à revêtement sont introduits dans le réservoir à fermeture hermétique, que du gaz inerte est introduit dans ledit réservoir jusqu'à l'obtention d'une teneur résiduelle d'oxygène de 3 % en volume, que le gaz sortant du réservoir d'inertage réchauffe par échange de chaleur le gaz inerte introduit dans le réservoir, qu'après l'inertage un produit de décapage est introduit dans le réservoir, dans lequel sont trempés les objets à décaper, qu'après l'opération de décapage et avant le séchage des objets décapés le mélange de revêtement et de produit de décapage est pompé hors du réservoir, que le mélange de gaz sortant du réservoir lors du séchage est refroidi par le gaz inerte introduit dans le réservoir par échange de chaleur avant la condensation du produit de décapage et que le gaz inerte est évacué dans l'atmosphère après la condensation du produit de décapage.According to the invention, this task is solved, in a process according to which the objects are introduced into a closed tank and treated with a liquid fluid, the mixture of treatment fluid and pickled material being then collected, the treatment fluid being separated from the pickled material, inert gas being introduced into the tank after the removal of the layers has been completed and the gas leaving the tank being condensed to separate the released treatment fluid, in that coated articles are introduced into the hermetically sealed tank, that inert gas is introduced into said tank until a residual oxygen content of 3% by volume is obtained, which the gas leaving the inerting tank heats up by heat exchange. inert gas introduced into the tank, only after inerting a pickling product is introduced into the tank, in which the objects to be pickled are soaked, only after the pickling operation and before t the drying of the pickled objects the mixture of coating and pickling product is pumped out of the tank, that the gas mixture leaving the tank during drying is cooled by the inert gas introduced into the tank by heat exchange before the condensation of the pickling product and the inert gas is discharged into the atmosphere after the pickling product has condensed.
Dans le cas du procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention, l'élimination des couches, par exemple le décapage d'un vernis, a lieu avec un solvant qui est connu en soi mais, conformément à l'invention, le procédé a donc lieu sous atmosphère inerte. On évite ainsi tout danger d'incendie ou d'explosion lors du décapage du revêtement. Une fois le décapage effectué, le gaz inerte peut être évacué dans l'atmosphère, en passant éventuellement par un dispositif de séparation approprié, sans que des substances nocives ne soient entraînées. Le gaz inerte utilisé dans le procédé d'élimination des couches sert également pour la séparation du solvant et du matériau formant le revêtement protecteur. A cet effet, le gaz inerte évacue le solvant vaporisé et le porte à condensation dans un dispositif approprié. Le solvant séparé peut alors être réutilisé dans le processus opératoire, l'utilisation de produits chimiques polluants et onéreux étant maintenue de ce fait dans des limites très faibles lors de la mise en oeuvre du procédé.In the case of the process which is the subject of the invention, the removal of the layers, for example the pickling of a varnish, takes place with a solvent which is known per se but, according to the invention, the process has therefore takes place under an inert atmosphere. This avoids any risk of fire or explosion when stripping the coating. Once the pickling has been carried out, the inert gas can be evacuated into the atmosphere, possibly passing through an appropriate separation device, without harmful substances being entrained. The inert gas used in the layer removal process is also used for the separation of the solvent and the material forming the protective coating. For this purpose, the inert gas evacuates the vaporized solvent and brings it to condensation in a suitable device. The separated solvent can then be reused in the operating process, the use of polluting and expensive chemicals being therefore kept within very low limits during the implementation of the process.
Lors de la séparation du solvant hors du mélange solvant-matériau de revêtement, on peut obtenir une concentration appropriée de ce mélange afin de le rendre réutilisable. Ceci est par exemple le cas de l'élimination du vernis. Le vernis mélangé dans le solvant peut être réutilisé avec la concentration souhaitée pour un nouveau procédé de vernissage, pour l'obtention de pigments, etc... De la sorte, on évite de le diriger sur une décharge particulière et l'inconvénient qui en résulte pour l'environnement est supprimé.When the solvent is separated from the solvent-coating material mixture, an appropriate concentration of this mixture can be obtained in order to make it reusable. This is for example the case of removing the varnish. The varnish mixed in the solvent can be reused with the desired concentration for a new varnishing process, for obtaining pigments, etc. In this way, it is avoided to direct it on a particular discharge and the disadvantage which results for the environment is removed.
Dans une version du procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention, on utilise l'azote comme gaz inerte. En tant que gaz industriel facile à manipuler l'azote peut être utilisé de manière particulièrement favorable dans le procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention.In a version of the process which is the subject of the invention, nitrogen is used as inert gas. As an easy-to-handle industrial gas, nitrogen can be used particularly favorably in the process which is the subject of the invention.
Il n'est pas possible d'éviter entièrement que du gaz inerte, s'échappant du bain, entraîne du solvant vaporisé. Par conséquent, selon une modalité de l'invention, on prévoit que le gaz s'échappant du bain soit refroidi par échange de chaleur avec le gaz inerte qui est introduit. Si l'on retire par exemple de l'azote gazeux d'un réservoir sous pression contenant de l'azote liquide, la température de l'azote gazeux s'abaisse, car on lui retire la chaleur d'évaporation. Si l'on réchauffe maintenant l'azote que l'on introduit par échange de chaleur, ceci conduit à un refroidissement du mélange azote-vapeur du solvant. Par ce fait la vapeur du solvant peut se condenser et l'on peut recueillir le condensat liquide tandis que de l'azote pur s'échappe dans l'atmosphère.It is not entirely possible to avoid inert gas escaping from the bath entraining vaporized solvent. Consequently, according to one embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the gas escaping from the bath is cooled by heat exchange with the inert gas which is introduced. If, for example, nitrogen gas is removed from a pressure tank containing liquid nitrogen, the temperature of the nitrogen gas drops, because the heat of evaporation is removed. If the nitrogen which is introduced by heat exchange is now heated, this leads to cooling of the nitrogen-vapor mixture of the solvent. Thereby the solvent vapor can condense and the liquid condensate can be collected while pure nitrogen escapes into the atmosphere.
Lorsque l'on extrait du bain le mélange solvant-matériau de revêtement, les objets décapés sont encore imprégnés de solvant. Pour cette raison, selon une autre modalité de l'invention, on propose, lorsque le mélange solvant-matériau de revêtement est retiré du bain, de sécher les objets décapés avec du gaz inerte et que le solvant soit séparé du courant de gaz inerte et de vapeur de solvant et soit recueilli.When the solvent-coating material mixture is extracted from the bath, the pickled objects are still impregnated with solvent. For this reason, according to another embodiment of the invention, it is proposed, when the solvent-coating material mixture is removed from the bath, to dry the pickled objects with inert gas and for the solvent to be separated from the inert gas stream and solvent vapor and be collected.
L'étape de procédé indiqué en dernier lieu est réalisée de la manière décrite ci-dessus.The process step indicated last is carried out as described above.
Ainsi qu'on l'a déjà expliqué, le gaz inerte est utilisé pour séparer le solvant du matériau de revêtement. A cet effet, selon une modalité de l'invention, on prévoit de réchauffer le gaz inerte pour l'évaporation du solvant. En variante, on peut réchauffer le réservoir dans lequel est pompé le mélange solvant-matériau de revêtement. En cas d'utilisation d'azote comme gaz inerte et de solvant usuel, le réchauffage porte sur une température d'environ 60°C.As already explained, inert gas is used to separate the solvent from the coating material. To this end, according to one embodiment of the invention, provision is made to reheat the inert gas for the evaporation of the solvent. Alternatively, the tank into which the solvent-coating material mixture is pumped can be reheated. If nitrogen is used as the inert gas and the usual solvent, reheating involves a temperature of around 60 ° C.
Afin d'assurer une meilleure utilisation de l'énergie du procédé de séparation basé sur la condensation,selon une autre version de l'invention, on prévoit de refroidir le mélange vapeur de solvant-gaz inerte par échange de chaleur avec le gaz inerte plus froid libéré après la condensation de la vapeur du solvant.In order to ensure better use of the energy of the separation process based on condensation, according to another version of the invention, provision is made to cool the solvent vapor-inert gas mixture by heat exchange with the inert gas more cold released after condensation of solvent vapor.
Le gaz inerte servant à l'évaporation et à la condensation du solvant est de préférence maintenu en circuit fermé, la quantité de gaz inerte nécessaire étant de ce fait réduite à un minimum. Avant le début de la séparation,le produit circulant dans le circuit sera de préférence rendu inerte au moyen d'un gaz inerte.The inert gas used for the evaporation and condensation of the solvent is preferably kept in a closed circuit, the quantity of inert gas required being thereby reduced to a minimum. Before the start of the separation, the product circulating in the circuit will preferably be made inert by means of an inert gas.
Ainsi qu'il ressort des explications précédentes, le procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention se caractérise par une réutilisation optimale des matières premières utilisées. Avec des coûts d'exploitation très faibles, il n'y a aucune production de déchets. Les quantités de produits émises avec le procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention sont nettement en dessous des recommandations des autorités. Les quantités d'énergie nécessaires à la mise en oeuvre du procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention sont très faibles. Du fait d'une manipulation du solvant qui a lieu uniquement en atmosphère inerte, la sécurité de travail est nettement meilleure que la moyenne, le danger d'incendie et d'explosion étant fortement réduit. Les influences exercées sur les postes de travail en ce qui concerne le bruit et les autres nuisances sont minimales. Enfin, le procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention peut être largement automatisé.As is apparent from the preceding explanations, the process which is the subject of the invention is characterized by optimal reuse of the raw materials used. With very low operating costs, there is no production of waste. The quantities of products emitted with the process which is the subject of the invention are clearly below the authorities' recommendations. The amounts of energy necessary for implementing the process which is the subject of the invention are very low. Due to the handling of the solvent, which takes place only in an inert atmosphere, work safety is clearly better than average, the danger of fire and explosion being greatly reduced. The influences exerted on workstations with regard to noise and other nuisances are minimal. Finally, the process which is the subject of the invention can be largely automated.
Diverses installations appropriées sont possibles pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention. Une installation conforme à l'invention avec un réservoir recevant les objets et pouvant être raccordé à un réservoir de gaz inerte par l'intermédiaire d'une conduite d'amenée et d'une soupape d'arrêt, un réservoir de produit de décapage relié au réservoir est caractérisé en ce que le réservoir peut être fermé hermétiquement et peut être relié à l'atmosphère par l'intermédiaire d'une deuxième soupape d'arrêt, d'un échangeur et d'un condenseur, que le réservoir à gaz inerte est relié au réservoir par l'intermédiaire de l'échangeur, que le réservoir de produit de décapage est relié au réservoir par l'intermédiaire d'une pompe et qu'une autre pompe pour pomper le mélange produit de décapage-vernis hors du réservoir est prévue.Various suitable installations are possible for implementing the process which is the subject of the invention. An installation according to the invention with a tank receiving the objects and which can be connected to an inert gas tank via a supply line and a shut-off valve, a tank of pickling product connected to the tank is characterized in that the tank can be hermetically sealed and can be connected to the atmosphere via a second shut-off valve, an exchanger and a condenser, as the inert gas tank is connected to the tank via the exchanger, that the pickling product tank is connected to the tank via a pump and that another pump for pumping the pickling product-varnish mixture out of the tank is planned.
L'installation faisant l'objet de l'invention permet de rendre inerte le réservoir de décapage avant son remplissage avec du solvant et un séchage des objets décapés lorsque le mélange solvant-matériau de revêtement est évacué. Entre ces phases du procédé, les soupapes d'arrêt sont fermées, ce qui permet de maintenir à une valeur relativement peu importante la quantité de gaz inerte nécessaire pour un tel procédé. Les fuites de gaz inerte vers l'atmosphère, en particulier lors de la phase de séchage, ne représentent aucun trouble pour l'environnement, car des précautions appropriées permettent de séparer le solvant qui y est contenu sous forme de vapeur.The installation which is the subject of the invention makes it possible to render the pickling tank inert before it is filled with solvent and drying of the pickled objects when the solvent-coating material mixture is removed. Between these phases of the process, the shut-off valves are closed, which makes it possible to maintain at a relatively small value the quantity of inert gas necessary for such a process. Leakage of inert gas to the atmosphere, in particular during the drying phase, does not represent any disorder for the environment, since appropriate precautions make it possible to separate the solvent which is contained therein in the form of vapor.
L'échangeur de chaleur de l'installation faisant l'objet de l'invention, est de préférence un évaporateur d'un groupe frigorifique. Cet évaporateur assure un refroidissement suffisant du mélange gazeux constitué par la vapeur de solvant et par le gaz inerte, afin que la vapeur de solvant puisse être condensée et séparée, le gaz inerte refroidi pouvant, selon une modalité de l'invention, être amené par l'intermédiaire d'une conduite dans le réservoir d'épaississement et pouvant, selon une autre modalité de l'invention, être utilisé pour le refroidissement dans un récupérateur amené à l'évaporateur.The heat exchanger of the installation which is the subject of the invention is preferably an evaporator of a refrigeration unit. This evaporator ensures sufficient cooling of the gaseous mixture constituted by the solvent vapor and by the inert gas, so that the solvent vapor can be condensed and separated, the cooled inert gas being able, according to one embodiment of the invention, to be brought by via a pipe in the thickening tank and which, according to another embodiment of the invention, can be used for cooling in a recuperator brought to the evaporator.
Le solvant séparé peut être ramené dans le réservoir de solvant par l'intermédiaire de pompes appropriées et peut être réutilisé. Le mélange solvant et les matériaux de revêtement concentrés dans le réservoir d'épaississement peut également être réutilisé.The separated solvent can be returned to the solvent tank via suitable pumps and can be reused. The solvent mixture and the coating materials concentrated in the thickening tank can also be reused.
Un exemple d'exécution est expliqué ci-dessous en référence à la figure unique qui montre, schématiquement, une installation permettant de mettre en oeuvre le procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention.An exemplary embodiment is explained below with reference to the single figure which shows, schematically, an installation making it possible to implement the method which is the subject of the invention.
Deux réservoirs, 10 et 11, fermés hermétiquement par un couvercle 12 ou 13, sont prévus. Les réservoirs 10 et 11 peuvent être reliés à un réservoir d'azote 16, par l'intermédiaire des conduites d'amenées 14 et 15, et des soupapes d'arrêt V3 ou V4. La sortie du réservoir d'azote 16, peut être fermée directement à l'aide d'une soupape d'arrêt V1. Les réservoirs 10 et 11 peuvent être reliés à l'atmosphère par l'intermédiaire des soupapes V6 ou V5, d'une conduite 17, d'un échangeur 18, d'un séparateur 19 et d'une conduite 20. Dans l'échangeur 18 se trouve un serpentin 21, qui constitue une partie de la conduite d'amenée 14.Two tanks, 10 and 11, hermetically closed by a
Les réservoirs 10 et 11 sont des réservoirs de décapage qui sont équipés, en outre, de générateurs à ultra-sons, comme indiqué à 22 ou 23. Les réservoirs 10 et 11 peuvent être reliés à un réservoir de solvant 27 par l'intermédiaire d'une pompe 24, des conduites 25 ou 26 et des soupapes V9 et V10.The
Les réservoirs 10 et 11 peuvent être reliés à un réservoir d'épaississement 31 par l'intermédiaire des soupapes d'arrêt V8 et V7, des conduites 28 ou 29 et d'une pompe 30. La conduite d'amenée 32 vers le réservoir d'épaississement 31 est munie d'un dispositif de chauffage 33. Un ventilateur 35 est disposé sur une conduite d'évacuation 34, provenant du réservoir d'épaississement 31. A partir du côté soufflant du ventilateur 35, la conduite 34 se dirige sur l'entrée d'un récupérateur 36 dont l'une des sorties est reliée à l'évaporateur 38 d'un groupe frigorifique désigné, en général, par 39, au moyen d'une conduite 37. Une conduite de sortie 40 de l'évaporateur 38 est reliée à un séparateur 41. Une conduite 42 sortant du séparateur 41 passe au travers du récupérateur 36 et est reliée à la conduite 32, en amont du dispositif de chauffage 33. La conduite 14 est reliée à la conduite 37 ou 32, par l'intermédiaire d'une conduite 43.The
Les séparateurs 19 et 41 sont munis de conduites de sortie 44 ou 45 qui conduisent à une conduite collectrice 46 qui comporte une pompe 47 et qui est reliée au réservoir de solvant 27.The
A la partie inférieure, une conduite 48 comportant une soupape V11 est reliée à un réservoir d'épaississement 31.At the lower part, a
L'installation décrite fonctionne comme suit :
- Le couvercle 12 étant ouvert, les pièces à décaper sont accrochées à la main dans le réservoir de décapage 10. Après son remplissage, le réservoir 10 est fermé hermétiquement. On ouvre alors les soupapes V1, V3 et V6. L'azote pénètre dans le réservoir 10, ressort de celui-ci à l'air libre en passant par l'échangeur 18 et le séparateur 19. En même temps, de l'air est extrait. Dès que la teneur en oxygène atteint une valeur inférieure à 3 % de volume, les soupapes V3 et V6 sont fermées. En même temps, ou juste après, la pompe 24 est enclenchée et la soupape V9 couverte, du solvant étant pompé dans le réservoir de décapage 10, comme indiqué en 45 a. Lorsqu'un degré de remplissage prédéterminé est atteint, la soupape est à nouveau fermée et la pompe 24 arrêtée.
- The cover 12 being open, the parts to be stripped are hung by hand in the
pickling tank 10. After filling, thetank 10 is hermetically closed. The valves V1, V3 and V6 are then opened. The nitrogen enters thereservoir 10, leaves it in the open air passing through theexchanger 18 and theseparator 19. At the same time, air is extracted. As soon as the oxygen content reaches a value of less than 3% by volume, the valves V3 and V6 are closed. At the same time, or just after, thepump 24 is started and the valve V9 covered, solvent being pumped into thepickling tank 10, as indicated in 45 a. When a predetermined degree of filling is reached, the valve is closed again and thepump 24 stopped.
La procédure de décapage commence alors avec l'aide d'ultra-sons.The stripping procedure then begins with the help of ultrasound.
En même temps, ou plus tard, la soupape V2 est ouverte, ce qui permet de rendre inerte le circuit de condensation se composant du dispositif de chauffage 33, du réservoir d'épaississement 31, du récupérateur 36, de l'évaporateur 38, du séparateur 41 ainsi que des conduites correspondantes.At the same time, or later, the valve V2 is open, which makes it possible to render the condensation circuit consisting of the
Lorsqu'une concentration d'oxygène prédéterminée est atteinte la soupape V2 est à nouveau fermée. Le dispositif de chauffage 33 est mis en route jusqu'à ce qu'une température prédéterminée soit atteinte.When a predetermined oxygen concentration is reached the valve V2 is closed again. The
Lorsque la phase de décapage estterminée, la soupape V8 s'ouvre et la pompe transporte le mélange se composant de vernis dissous et de solvant dans le réservoir d'épaississement 31. Dans le réservoir d'épaississement 31 le mélange est désigné par 46.When the pickling phase is complete, the valve V8 opens and the pump transports the mixture consisting of dissolved varnish and solvent into the thickening
En même temps, ou plus tard, les soupapes V3 et V6 s'ouvrent. Le courant d'azote traversant le réservoir 10 sèche les pièces décapées. Le mélange vapeur de solvant-azote passe par l'échangeur 18. Le solvant se condense dans cet échangeur et est séparé dans le séparateur 19. L'azote purifié s'échappe dans l'atmosphère par la conduite 20. Le solvant provenant du séparateur 19 pénètre dans le réservoir de solvant 27 par la conduite 44 et à l'aide de la pompe 47.At the same time, or later, the valves V3 and V6 open. The stream of nitrogen passing through the
Après achèvement de la phase de séchage, le réservoir 10 est rempli d'air. Dès que la teneur en oxygène atteint au moins 19 % de volume, le couvercle 12 s'ouvre automatiquement et les pièces décapées et nettoyées peuvent être extraites. La phase de décapage peut alors être répétée de la manière décrite ci-dessus.After completion of the drying phase, the
Entre temps, la phase d'épaississement se déroule comme suit dans le réservoir 31. L'azote tempéré évapore à une température de par exemple 600C une partie du solvant dans le réservoir d'épaississement 31. Le mélange gazeux de solvant et d'azote subit un refroidissement préliminaire dans le récupérateur 36 par l'intermédiaire du ventilateur 35 et est envoyé dans l'évaporateur 38 où la vapeur de solvant se condense. Dans le séparateur 41 le solvant et l'azote sont séparés. L'azote est à nouveau réchauffé dans le récupérateur 36 et est porté dans le dispositif de chauffage 33 à la température souhaitable pour son introduction dans le réservoir d'épaississement 31. La phase d'épaississement dure jusqu'à ce que la viscosité souhaitable du vernis soit atteinte. Lorsque la phase d'épaississement est terminée, la soupape V11 s'ouvre de manière à ce que le vernis puisse être transvasé dans des conteneurs appropriés par l'intermédiaire de la conduite 48.Meanwhile, the thickening phase takes place as follows in the
Les températures utilisées dans le circuit d'épaississement sont indiquées sur la figure . Elles ne doivent toutefois pas être considérées comme limitatives.The temperatures used in the thickening circuit are shown in the figure. However, they should not be considered as limiting.
Il est évident qu'une phase de décapage peut aussi être réalisée en parallèle, ou avec décalage, dans le réservoir 11.It is obvious that a pickling phase can also be carried out in parallel, or with offset, in the
L'exemple d'exécution montre que le procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention peut être mis en oeuvre avec des composants et des appareils usuels et que les fabrications spéciales onéreuses sont évitées.The example of execution shows that the process which is the subject of the invention can be implemented with usual components and apparatuses and that expensive special manufacturing is avoided.
