Abstract:
A device and method for preparing a nano-fragmented product. A polysaccharide slurry is circulated in a polysaccharide supply path (3) via a chamber (2). Specifically, using a pump (8), the polysaccharide slurry in a tank (7) is circulated in a circulation path (9) which is formed using a vinyl hose, a rubber hose or the like. On the other hand, another slurry than the polysaccharide slurry is circulated through a second fluid medium supply path (4) as another circulation path via the chamber (2). Specifically, using a pump (11), the slurry other than the polysaccharide slurry in a tank (10) is caused to pass through a heat exchanger (12) and a plunger (13) and thereby circulate in the other circulation path. The slurry other than the polysaccharide slurry circulated in the second fluid medium supply path (4) is orifice-injected against the polysaccharide slurry circulated in the polysaccharide slurry supply path (3) and flowing through the chamber (2).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a jet mill combining a high speed grinding apparatus and a high speed grinding apparatus with a jet mill mounted thereon wherein in consideration of the properties of aluminum having a high degree of softness, pressurizing air is injected not through existing air nozzles, but through injection holes, and the number of injection holes and the approach angles toward air of the injection holes are optimized to maximize the particle collision of the grinding object, thereby manufacturing granules having particle sizes in the range between 100 μm and 1000 μm.
Abstract:
Significant improvement in the sharpness with which particles are classified by size in a recirculating jet mill is achieved by the provision of an elongated, flexible barrier strip located adjacent the outermost part of the wall of the classifier section. The positions of both ends of the strip are adjustable for controlling classification. The cross-section of the classifier section is pear-shaped, the narrow portion of the cross-section being toward the outside of the classifier section, and the barrier strip being within said narrow portion. An auxiliary outlet for large particles can be provided behind the barrier strip.
Abstract:
The invention provides a process for comminuting coal or other fuel solids in a shear field, and for optionally coating the solids with catalysts for combustion, liquefaction, and or gasification during the milling process. The process further provides for control of water content in the solids may be controlled before, during and after the milling in order to obtain micronized solids with fine hydration layers. The output fuel solids from the process can burn at low temperatures, avoiding emissions of nitrogen oxides, and they also have improved properties for surfactant-free suspension in either water or oil media, as well as for liquefaction and gasification.
Abstract:
In a vertical loop jet mill, a grinding chamber in the lower part of the loop is trapezoidal in shape with side walls converging toward the outside of the loop. Removable nozzle plates are provided in the lower parts of the side walls of the grinding chamber, and the nozzles are directed so that gas streams from nozzles on one side intersect gas streams from nozzles on the other side. A removable insert, with trapezoidal end panels forms the upper wall of the grinding chamber.
Abstract:
The expenditure of energy required to feed solid material into a jet mill or flash dryer is significantly reduced by the use of a novel feed system in which a blower, operating at a pressure slightly higher than the pressure within the jet mill or flash dryer, produces a stream of air which transports the solid material to be treated. Solid material is introduced into the stream of air through a rotary valve in which the rotary element is disposed for rotation about an axis parallel to the direction of air flow and its blades move through the path of air flow to prevent the accumulation of material on the blades.
Abstract:
A method of treating solid particles by propelling jets of elastic fluid, such as gas or vapor, in selected lateral directions against a circulating vortex of particles entrained in similar elastic fluid to selectively propel a larger proportion of the particles toward or away from an outlet positioned adjacent the inner peripheral portion of the vortex.
