Benefits of technology

[0028] With regard to the adjustment of an optimum consistency of the suspension at a predetermined solids concentration, it can be advantageous if water, for example fresh water and/or white water, is added to the suspension prior to the addition of the carbon dioxide. This allows the consistency of the suspension to be varied within certain limits.
[0029] In addition it can also be advantageous if water, for example fresh water or white water, is added into the reactor itself prior to and/o

Embodiment Construction

[0040] Referring now to the drawings, and more particularly to FIG. 1, there is shown a schematic depiction of a device 1 for loading fibers 2.1 or cellulose 2.2 which are contained in a suspension 3 with a filler 4 by way of a chemical precipitation reaction, wherein the fibers 2.1 or the cellulose 2.2 in form of a suspension 3 are made available with a pre-determined solids concentration c.

[0041] The apparatus 1 includes reactor 5 in which the fibers 2.1 or the cellulose 2.2 in form of a suspension 3 to which carbon dioxide 6 has been added are mixed with milk of lime or slaked lime 7, thereby triggering and extensively, such as completely, concluding the chemical precipitation reaction. The carbon dioxide 6 can be added to the suspension 3 as pure carbon dioxide and / or as flue gas.

[0042] In the example of apparatus 1 depicted in FIG. 1 the addition of the carbon dioxide 6 and mixing of the milk of lime or slaked lime 7 occurs in batch operation.

[0043] The reactor 5 includes at...

Abstract

The present invention provides a method for the loading of fibers or cellulose included in a suspension with a filler by way of a chemical precipitation reaction, wherein the fibers or cellulose are provided in the form of a suspension having a predetermined solids concentration. Carbon dioxide is added to the fibers or to the cellulose in the form of a suspension. The fibers or the cellulose in form of a suspension to which carbon dioxide has been added are mixed with milk of lime or slaked lime, such as in at least one reactor, thereby triggering and extensively, such as completely, concluding the chemical precipitation reaction.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This is a continuation of PCT application No. PCT / EP2005 / 011498, entitled “METHOD AND DEVICE FOR LOADING FIBERS OR CELLULOSE CONTAINED IN A SUSPENSION WITH A FILLER”, filed Oct. 27, 2005. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The invention relates to a method as well as to an apparatus for loading of fibers or cellulose contained in a suspension with a filler by way of a chemical precipitation reaction, wherein the fibers or cellulose are provided in the form of a suspension having a predetermined solids concentration. [0004] 2. Description of the Related Art [0005] In the production of fibrous webs, especially paper or cardboard webs fillers, especially precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) or disintegrated or ground calcium carbonate (GCC) represent conventional substances which are used to reduce the fibrous material content as well as to improve the optical characteristics of the web. [0006] The commerci...
