Abstract: A method and apparatus for hydraulically transmitting coal, oil shale, mineral ores, etc. from the mine face to the surface of underground mines via a pipeline by injecting the mined material from near the mine face into a body of water flowing in a pipeline, such injection being accomplished by an injection device which moves the mined material into the pipeline without applying any pushing forces and relocates the mined material in a continuous fashion from a first low pressure water circulation loop into a second higher pressure water circulation loop. The second water circulation loop communicates as required with a second injection device which relocates the mined material to a third higher pressure water circulation loop for increasing the pressure in the pipeline for transmission from deep mines.

Abstract: A method of continuously feeding coal or the like to coal gasifier means or the like operating under a predetermined elevated pressure and of continuously removing ash or the like therefrom in which the coal feeding and ash removing procedures are interrelated to provide energy conservation by removing heat from the ash and transferring the heat to the coal, such energy conservation being performed by means of the liquid medium (water) used to feed the coal and remove the ash. In the coal feeding procedure, coal is continuously introduced into a first low energy water circuit from which successive volumes of coal particles and entrained water are transferred to a second high energy water circuit during which transfer the first circuit gains water from the second circuit, the second circuit includes a first liquid volume having a free liquid surface maintained at a high pressure level at or near the pressure level of the gasifier through which the coal is moved to supply the gasifier. In the ash removal procedure, a second volume of water having a free surface is maintained at the outlet pressure of the gasifier to receive the discharged ash therethrough, the second volume of water forms part of a third high energy water circuit from which successive volumes of ash and entrained water are transferred to a fourth low energy water circuit, the heated water from the second and third circuits after ash removal therefrom is utilized to supply the loss of water from the second circuit and the excess cool water from the first circuit is utilized to control and maintain, in conjunction with a fresh cool water supply, the temperature and level of the second volume.

Abstract: A system and method for feeding comminuted cellulosic fibrous material such as wood chips to the top of a treatment vessel such as a continuous digester provide enhanced simplicity, operability, and maintainability by eliminating the high pressure transfer device conventionally used in the prior art. Instead of a high pressure transfer device the steamed and slurried chips are pressurized using one or more slurry pumps located at least thirty feet below the top of the treatment vessel and for pressurizing the slurry to a pressure of at least about 10 bar gauge. A return line from the top of the digester may, but need not necessarily, be operatively connected to the one or more pumps and if connected to the pumps the pressure in the return line may be reduced utilizing a pressure reduction valve and/or a flash tank. During pressurized transferring of the slurry from the pumps to a treatment vessel (which may be as little about 10 feet or as much as about a half a mile away) treatment liquid is provided which contains at least some active pumping chemical including sodium hydroxide, sodium sulfide; polysulfide, anthraquinone or their equivalents or derivatives; surfactants, enzymes, or chelants; or combinations thereof. Pseudo-countercurrent circulation of treatment liquids may be provided between stations.

Abstract: In a method of bleaching medium consistency pulp with ozone using a mixer, ozone containing gas and about 6-15% consistency pulp are fed to the mixer, and then discharged in a first, preferably vertical, path. The mixture of pulp and ozone moves in a first part of the vertical path a time period of about 1-5 seconds at a velocity of about 1-5 m/s so that the gas and pulp do not separate during movement in this first part, and the vast majority of the pulp brightening reaction between the ozone and pulp takes place. This is preferably accomplished by passing the mixture upwardly in a small diameter conduit having a height of about 3-20 meters. Then the velocity of the pulp is slowed while still moving in the first path, preferably by feeding it directly to a much larger diameter (e. g. 1.5-10 times) conduit, so the height of the unit may be kept under 100 feet. The pulp flows in the large diameter conduit for about 0.5-5 minutes so that residual reactions take place.

Abstract: Methane is produced from peat by solubilizing the phenolic polymers therein, and oxidizing the solute to produce short chain molecules. The short chain molecules are fermented to produce a gas that this scrubbed to remove CO.sub.2 to produce methane. Solubilizing takes place in a vertically oriented pressurized vessel that is circular in cross-section and divided into a number of regular vertically elongated compartments, each comprising a circular sector in cross-section, and extending the majority the height of the vessel. Slurried peat is fed into the top of one compartment while another compartment is being emptied from the bottom, the compartment being filled or emptied being progressively changed in response to rotation of a central shaft in the vessel. Oxidation of solubilized peat takes place in a structure that transports the solubilized peat in a substantially vertical wave path from an inlet to an outlet with oxygen being introduced at the bottoms of segments of the wave path, and CO.sub.2 being withdrawn from the tops of segments of the wave path while the solubilized peat is maintained at a pressure above atmospheric. Coolant is circulated around the wave path to remove the exothermic heat of reaction, and the coolant is flashed into steam used elsewhere in the process.

Abstract: A slurry of recycled cellulose fibers is deinked by introducing the slurry into the first end of a vortex, sparging gas radially inwardly into the slurry to cause gas bubbles to attach to contaminants and ink particles to form an aerated slurry, discharging the aerated slurry from near the second end of the vortex into a separation vessel, effecting separation of a foam of ink laden gas bubbles from the cellulose fiber slurry in the separation vessel, and removing from the separation vessel the foam with associated ink and contaminants in a first stream, and de-inked cellulose fiber slurry in a second stream. The separation vessel is typically a foam separating vessel with separation effected by flotation, and by discharging the foam. The slurry is introduced into the flotation vessel below the liquid level in it. The slurry typically has a consistency of about 0.5-2%, and the gas to slurry volume ratio during sparging may be 0.1-1 to 1.0 (e.g. 0.2-0.7 to 1, or 0.3-0.4 to 1). The foam separating vessel may be cylindrical with a shower head at the top, and rejects therefrom directed to a rejects tank. Sparging takes place in a hydrocyclone with an outlet that may or may not be restricted; a rejects outlet may extend from a first end of the hydrocyclone to a rejects tank.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for the dehydration of low rank coal, such as lignite. The coal is formed into particles having a size of less than about 4 inches, is subjected to atmospheric steaming, and then preheating with steam at a pressure of about 20-100 psig. The particles are then entrained in liquid and fed to a high pressure feeder at which they are transferred to a high pressure circulation loop, at a pressure of between about 300-1500 psig. The particles and liquid are fed to a liquid/particles separator at the top of a vertical dehydrating vessel, and the particles at the top of the vessel are contacted by saturated steam. Condensed steam and particles flow downwardly in the dehydration vessel, and are subjected to a counter-current wash at the bottom of the vessel. A slurry of liquid and particles discharged from the bottom of the dehydration vessel has the pressure thereof gradually reduced in a second high pressure feeder, and is transferred to a low pressure loop at a pressure of between about 20-100 psig. The liquid and particles are separated, and then the particles are subjected to evaporative cooling.
