[0001] DESCRIPTION

[0002] A Fluid Mechanics-Based Mixing System Developed to Ensure Homogeneous Distribution of Paraffin at the Nano-Sized Particle Level in Paraffin Emulsions Used in Wood-Based Fiberboard Production

[0003] Field of the Invention

[0004] In paraffin emulsions used in the production of wood-based fibreboard, it is related to the system that enables the paraffin to be reduced to nano-particle level in the emulsion, eliminating clumping and enabling homogeneous distribution. In particular, the invention relates to a fully automatic mixture preparation system developed on the basis of fluid mechanics to ensure homogeneous distribution of paraffin in the emulsion at the nano level.

[0005] Prior Art

[0006] The description regarding the definition, explanation of wood-based panels (MDF, LDF, HDF), and the reasons for using paraffin in their manufacture is referenced from the doctoral dissertation titled "Different Chemical Usage Aimed at Improving the Performance of Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF)" by Assistant Professor Meryem ONDARAL at Karadeniz Technical University, dated 2019.

[0007] According to this thesis:

[0008] With the acceleration of industrial development and population growth, the demand for wood-based materials has increased, leading to issues with raw material supply. To meet industrial needs and ensure production continuity, research has been conducted into alternative products to solid wood, resulting in advancements in the production of wood- based panels (Eroglu and Usta, 2000). Wood-based panels include chipboard, fiberboard, oriented strand board, plywood, and veneer sheets. Among the reasons for choosing these materials are their ease of processing, homogeneous structure, ease of machine cutting, and ability to be manufactured with desired properties depending on their intended use (Ybrur and Birinci, 2018). Fiberboards are produced by refining fibers from lignocellulosic materials such as wood or annual plant stems, followed by shaping and pressing with the addition of adhesives and additives to achieve the desired form (Guller, 2001 ). Wood-based panels, particularly fiberboards, play a significant role, with medium density fiberboards (MDF) being at the forefront of production. Reasons for this include extensive industrial applications, high physical and mechanical resistance properties, and the ability to be manufactured using low- cost wood raw materials. Alongside these positive attributes, fiberboards also exhibit some drawbacks. One primary disadvantage is their hygroscopic nature, which leads to changes in dimensional stability and mechanical resistance due to moisture absorption from hygroscopic fibers (Carll and Wiedenhoeft, 2009). This underscores the importance of tailored fiberboard production based on specific uses. The addition of water-repellent chemicals to make fiberboards resistant to water and moisture has become crucial (Torkaman, 2008). Producing fiberboards with resistance to water and moisture ensures their reliability in usage environments and promotes their long-term economic viability.

[0009] Paraffins are hydrophobic materials used in the production of fiberboards and particleboards to prevent the structure of boards from deteriorating or "working" when in contact with water and moisture. Their non-polar nature prevents them from being chemically active. Their hydrophobic effect involves penetrating the capillary gaps of fibers to prevent water and moisture from entering these areas. Paraffins are typically used in the form of emulsions. Using more than 1 -2% of paraffins relative to the dry weight of fibers can adversely affect adhesive performance. It is known that hydrophobic materials reduce the bonding structure within the boards, thereby deteriorating their resistance properties (Eroglu and Usta, 2000).

[0010] In research conducted on the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office database, Application Number 97 / 00095 dated February 6, 1997 has been found.

[0011] In this application, it is mentioned that before the gluing process in chipboard production, an emulsion of paraffin is sprayed and pulverized onto the chips with compressed air. This emulsion facilitates the application process, enhances the chipboard's resistance to moisture, reduces glue consumption, minimizes contamination during the transport and spreading of glued chips, and improves these processes at the following rates.

[0012] This application represents the finalized and completed version of our minimum requirements application with file number 2024 / 002496 as of March 1 , 2024.

[0013] Accordingly, the purpose of the invention is to reduce paraffin to nano particle size using a fluid mechanics-based system in paraffin emulsions prepared with water or different liquid chemicals, especially in the production of wood-based fiberboard, and to ensure homogeneous distribution within the emulsion.

[0014] Another object of the present invention is to eliminate micro-level particle agglomerations in paraffin emulsions.

[0015] Another object of the present invention is to reduce the amount of paraffin and adhesive used in the emulsion.

[0016] Another object of the present invention is to increase the mixture ratio of paraffin with adhesive.

[0017] Another object of the present invention is to ensure that the paraffin emulsion is prepared to exhibit a balanced distribution on the applied surface.

[0018] Another object of the present invention is to establish a redundant operation system that can bypass malfunctioning components during the emulsion processing process and continue operation.

[0019] Another object of the present invention is to

[0020] Introduce a modular structured system that operates separately from the wood-based fiberboard production system and can be integrated into the wood-based fiberboard production system as desired.

[0021] In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the processing of the system's product is carried out in a dual-cycle manner.

[0022] In the preferred embodiment of the invention,

[0023] In case of any element failure in the system, the system elements are interconnected in parallel to include their backups, ensuring uninterrupted operation until the maintenance team arrives.

[0085] The invention relates to the "Fluid Mechanics-Based Mixture Preparation System Developed to Ensure Homogeneous Distribution of Paraffin at the Nano-Particle Level within the Emulsion in Paraffin Emulsions Used in the Production of Wood-Based Fiber Boards," which eliminates all the disadvantages and achieves the intended results mentioned in the related subject above.

[0086] As is known, particularly in systems that use liquid fluids, there are two types of flow patterns in the transmission elements, such as pipes: aerodynamic or laminar (smooth layered flow) and turbulent flow.

[0087] In laminar flow, all particles of the fluid move parallel to each other. In turbulent flow, however, the flow conditions contribute to turbulence formation due to factors such as the very small size of the flow passage relative to the desired fluid speed, the high viscosity of the hydraulic fluid, sudden changes in the diameter of rough, irregularly shaped fluid passages, and abrupt changes in the direction of the fluid.

[0088] The invention employs a turbulent flow generator (14), which can intentionally create turbulent flow, a type of flow pattern in fluid mechanics, to reduce paraffin particles to the nano-particle level within the emulsion and ensure their homogeneous distribution. The system architecture is developed around this turbulent flow and the turbulent flow generator (14) that produces it to achieve its intended purpose.

[0150] The aim of the second process is to reduce the size of the paraffin particles in the paraffin emulsion to nano level and make their distribution in the emulsion more homogeneous.

[0151] In the system's first processing cycle, one of the three piston pumps is activated, pressurizing the paraffin emulsion and sending it to the turbulent flow generator section. In the second processing cycle, another of the three piston pump / pumps (3) is activated, pressurizing the paraffin emulsion and sending it to the turbulent flow generator (14) section.

[0152] The system employs two active piston pumps (3) to pressurize the paraffin emulsion. The third piston pump (3) serves as a backup, activated by the system when either of the two active pumps (3) malfunctions.
