DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0012] With reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. All the other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application. Embodiment 1

[0013] A waste paper pulp adhesive control method comprises the following steps: 100% OCC waste paper is transported to a hydraulic pulper for disintegration, then transported to a high-concentration heavy-duty degritting device for high-concentration heavy-duty degritting, then transported to a coarse screen for coarse screening, then transported to a low-concentration heavy-duty degritting device for low-concentration heavy-duty degritting, then transported to a fine screen for fine screening, then transported to a multi-disc thickener for thickening, then transported to a hot disperser for hot dispersion, then transported to a low-concentration disc refiner for pulping, and after pulping, the pulp is stored in a post-kneading pool for stirring storage. During the stirring storage, 3 kg / ton of absolute dry pulp of bentonite is added to the post-kneading pool. The bentonite is made into a liquid mixture for addition, and the mass concentration is 3%. The bentonite is sodium-based bentonite. Then the pulp is transported to a pressure screen for feeding and screening, then transported to a headbox of a paper machine for pulp distribution, and then sequentially passes through a wire part, a pressing part, a drying part, a sizing part, a coating part, a calendering part and a paper winding part of the paper machine to be formed into paper. The white water recycled from the wire part is subjected to deep air flotation treatment, and then recycled to the hot disperser. The deep air flotation treatment technology is to make air completely dissolved in liquid by high pressure, then make the dissolved gas suddenly exposed to atmospheric pressure by generating pressure difference in the air release valve, and the air release process generates micro bubbles. The bubbles are attached to the flocculation to physically separate the suspended solids and colloidal particles in the waste paper pulp from the water, so that they float to the surface of the clarifier. During the deep air flotation treatment, cationic polyacrylamide with a molecular weight greater than 10 million is added. The addition amount of the cationic polyacrylamide is 0.5 kg / ton of absolute dry pulp, and the mass concentration is 0.3%. Embodiment 2

[0014] The addition amount of the cationic polyacrylamide is 1 kg / ton of absolute dry pulp, and the mass concentration is 0.2%. The remaining technical features are the same as those of embodiment 1. Embodiment 3

[0015] 5 kg / ton of absolute dry pulp of bentonite is added. The bentonite is made into a liquid mixture for addition, and the mass concentration is 2%. The remaining technical features are the same as those of embodiment 1.

[0016] Comparative Example 1

[0017] No bentonite is added to the post-kneading pool. The remaining technical features are the same as those of embodiment 1.

[0018] Comparative Example 2

[0019] The position of adding bentonite is a hot disperser, and the rest of the technical features are the same as those of Example 1.

[0020] Comparative Example 3

[0021] The position of adding bentonite is a pressure screen, and the rest of the technical features are the same as those of Example 1.

[0022] Comparative Example 4

[0023] The deep layer air flotation treatment process is omitted, the white water recycled in the wire part is directly recycled into the hot disperser, and the rest of the technical features are the same as those of Example 1.

[0024] Comparative Example 5

[0025] No cationic polyacrylamide with a molecular weight greater than 10 million is added in the flotation process, and the rest of the technical features are the same as those of Example 1.

[0026] The detection method of the content of the adhesive material: 21.7g of absolutely dry pulp is circulated in a sieve plate with a sieve gap of 0.15mm for 20min, the remaining part is uniformly transferred to a filter disc with a radius of 9cm, and an equal circle paper disc with a white coating layer is covered on the filter disc, and then it is placed in a press machine with a temperature of 95℃ and a pressure of 0.4Kpa for about 40~50min, at this time, the sample is taken out, the white coating layer is adhered on the filter disc due to the adhesion of the adhesive material, and other non-adhesive materials (such as coarse fibers, sand and other inorganic substances, etc.) will not be adhered to the coating layer, the area of the coating layer is obtained by scanning with a scanner, which is the content of the adhesive material, and the specific test data are as follows:

[0027] Table 1 Experimental detection data of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5

[0028]

[0029] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1-3, the present application fully utilizes the cooperation between bentonite and deep layer air flotation treatment technology, by adding bentonite with a mass concentration of 2-3% and an addition amount of 2-5kg / ton of absolutely dry pulp in the post-kneading tank, and cooperating with the deep layer air flotation treatment technology, the content of the adhesive material in the waste paper can be purified from 17808㎡ / kg to about 1068㎡ / kg, and the removal rate of the adhesive material is more than 94%, so that a good adhesive material removal effect is achieved, and in the actual production process, the adhesion of the dryer, the guide roller and the dry net can be greatly reduced, the frequency of the scraping knife is reduced from 2~3 times per shift to 1~2 times. The phenomenon of dropping hair and powder of the coating cow card caused by the adhesive material is reduced, the number and density of the dropping powder points are reduced by more than 80%, and the number of wiping the plate when printing with the coating cow card due to the accumulation of the adhesive material and the paper hair is also greatly reduced.

[0030] As can be seen from the data of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, the addition of bentonite can significantly improve the effect of glue removal. Compared with Comparative Example 1, the addition of 3 kg / ton of bentonite in the post-beating tank can increase the glue removal efficiency from 86.4% to 94%, an increase of 7.6%. Moreover, as can be seen from the data of Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 3, if bentonite is not added, the pressure screen has no glue removal effect.

[0031] As can be seen from the data of Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 3, the addition position of bentonite has a significant impact on the final glue removal efficiency. As can be seen from the data of Comparative Example 2, the glue content at the outlet of the post-beating tank is higher than that in the post-beating tank. The reason is that the bentonite wraps and passivates the fine glue, but under the action of the disc mill shearing force, the passivated glue is dispersed and flocculated again, resulting in a higher glue content in the post-beating tank than in the pre-beating tank. Therefore, the scheme is not good. When the bentonite is added to the pressure screen, the glue removal efficiency is reduced by 3% compared with the addition in the post-beating tank. The possible reason is that the bentonite needs a certain time to adsorb the glue after being added. If it is directly added to the pressure screen, the reaction time is too short, which is not conducive to the adsorption of the glue, resulting in poor glue removal effect of the pressure screen. The experimental results show that the best glue removal effect can be obtained when the bentonite is added to the post-beating tank.

[0032] As can be seen from the data of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 4, the white water deep air flotation treatment process has a significant impact on the final glue removal efficiency. If the recycled white water is not treated by deep air flotation, the glue removal rate at the hot dispersion inlet decreases from 80% to 54.9%, and the final glue removal rate decreases from 94% to 80.2%. The possible reason is that the micro-bubbles generated in the deep air flotation treatment process can be attached to the flocculation, making the glue float to the surface of the clarifier, thereby greatly improving the glue removal rate.

[0033] As can be seen from the data of Comparative Example 4 and Comparative Example 5, the addition of cationic polyacrylamide with a molecular weight greater than 10 million has a very obvious effect on flotation. The possible reason is that when the high molecular weight polyacrylamide (PAM) is dissolved in water, it has a positively charged active group, which adsorbs the negatively charged suspended colloidal particles, neutralizes the particle surface charge, eliminates the repulsive force between the particles, makes the glue flocculate, and then floats to the surface of the clarifier through the action of micro-bubbles, thereby greatly improving the glue removal rate.

[0034] Comparative Example 6

[0035] The bentonite added in the post-beating tank is 1 kg / ton of absolute dry pulp, and the remaining technical features are the same as those of Example 1.

[0036] Comparative Example 7

[0037] The bentonite added in the post-kneading pool was 2 kg per ton of absolute dry pulp, and the remaining technical features were the same as those of Example 1.

[0038] Comparative Example 8

[0039] The bentonite added in the post-kneading pool was 4 kg per ton of absolute dry pulp, and the remaining technical features were the same as those of Example 1.

[0040] Comparative Example 9

[0041] The bentonite added in the post-kneading pool was 5 kg per ton of absolute dry pulp, and the remaining technical features were the same as those of Example 1.

[0042] Comparative Example 10

[0043] The bentonite added in the post-kneading pool was 6 kg per ton of absolute dry pulp, and the remaining technical features were the same as those of Example 1.

[0044] Comparative Example 11

[0045] The bentonite added in the post-kneading pool was 7 kg per ton of absolute dry pulp, and the remaining technical features were the same as those of Example 1.

[0046] The content of the adhesive substance of Comparative Examples 6-11 was also determined, and the specific experimental data are as follows:

[0047] Table 2 Experimental detection data of Example 1, Comparative Example 1, and Comparative Examples 6-11

[0048]

[0049] As can be seen from the data of Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 1, and Comparative Examples 6-11, the amount of bentonite added has a great influence on the removal rate of the adhesive substance. The removal rate of the adhesive substance increases rapidly with the increase of the amount of bentonite added, and when the amount of bentonite added reaches 3 kg per ton of absolute dry pulp, the removal rate of the adhesive substance is basically flat. From the production cost point of view, when the amount of bentonite added is 3 kg per ton of absolute dry pulp, the best cost performance can be obtained.

[0050] The above describes only the preferred embodiments of the present application, but the present application should not be limited to the contents disclosed in the embodiments and the drawings, so any equivalent or modification made without departing from the disclosed spirit of the present application falls within the scope of protection of the present application.
