Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Absorptionsmittel für Öl oder ölartige Stoffe, insbesondere Erdöl.The invention relates to an absorbent for oil or oily substances, especially petroleum.
Durch die Verschmutzung der Meeresoberfläche und der -küsten durch Erdöl sowie das in Industrieabwässern und dergleichen ent haltene Abfallöl werden immer größere natürliche Lebensräume zerstört. Es sind daher schon zahlreiche Vorschläge gemacht worden, um Öl, insbesondere Erdöl vor allem von Wasseroberflä chen zu entfernen.Due to the pollution of the sea surface and the coasts by petroleum and that in industrial waste water and the like Waste oil that is kept becomes ever larger natural habitats destroyed. Numerous suggestions have therefore already been made been to oil, especially petroleum especially from water surfaces Chen remove.
Beispielsweise ist es aus der DE-AS 19 44 636 und der DE-AS 23 21 148 bekannt, als Ölabsorptionsmittel bestimmte Kunststoff schaumstoffe zu verwenden.For example, it is from DE-AS 19 44 636 and DE-AS 23 21 148 known as an oil absorbent certain plastic to use foams.
Ferner ist es aus der DE-PS 34 23 885 bekannt, in Aceton gelö ste Acetylcellulose als Ölabsorptionsmittel einzusetzen. Dieses Mittel besitzt zwar eine sehr hohe Ölaufnahmefähigkeit, jedoch führt es zu einer Erhöhung des Sauerstoff-Bedarfs des Wassers.Furthermore, it is known from DE-PS 34 23 885, dissolved in acetone ste use acetyl cellulose as an oil absorbent. This Medium has a very high oil absorption capacity, however it leads to an increase in the oxygen demand of the water.
Ferner ist ein Ölbindevlies aus Polypropylen-Fasern im Handel (3M Technische Information "3M Oil Sorbent" der Firma 3M Deutschland GmbH 9/85). Die Ölaufnahmefähigkeit dieses Vlieses beträgt bis zum 25-fachen des Eigengewichts.Furthermore, an oil binding fleece made of polypropylene fibers is commercially available (3M Technical Information "3M Oil Sorbent" from 3M Deutschland GmbH 9/85). The oil absorption capacity of this fleece is up to 25 times its own weight.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Ölabsorptionsmittel bereitzustellen, das ohne Abgabe schädlicher Stoffe eine we sentlich verbesserte Ölaufnahmefähigkeit als die bekannten Mit tel besitzt. The object of the invention is an oil absorbent To provide a we without the release of harmful substances considerably better oil absorption than the well-known Mit tel owns.
Dies wird erfindungsgemäß mit dem im Anspruch 1 gekennzeichne ten Absorptionsmittel erreicht. Im Anspruch 2 ist eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung dieses Absorptionsmittels wiederge geben.According to the invention, this is characterized by that in claim 1 th absorbent reached. In claim 2 is one advantageous embodiment of this absorbent again give.
Überraschend hat sich gezeigt, daß die Samenhaare von Pflanzen der Gattung Asclepias eine extrem große Ölaufnahmefähigkeit be sitzen, und zwar saugt das erfindungsgemäße Absorptionsmittel mehr als das 200-fache seines Eigengewichts an Öl auf.Surprisingly, it has been shown that the seed hair of plants of the genus Asclepias have an extremely high oil absorption capacity sit, and sucks the absorbent of the invention more than 200 times its own weight in oil.
Da es sich um eine Naturfaser handelt, gibt das erfindungsgemäße Absorptionsmittel keine schädlichen Stoffe ab.Since it is a natural fiber, there is Absorbent according to the invention no harmful substances.
Pflanzen der Gattung Asclepias sind vor allem in Nordamerika weit verbreitet. Sie werden dort als "Milkweed" oder "Silkweed" bezeichnet. Am häufigsten kommen die Arten Asclepias syriaca, Asclepias incarnata und Asclepias subulata vor. Deren Samenhaar flocken sind als Ölabsorptionsmittel besonders geeignet.Plants of the Asclepias genus are mainly found in North America widespread. They are called "milkweed" or "silkweed" designated. The most common species are Asclepias syriaca, Asclepias incarnata and Asclepias subulata. Their seed hair Flakes are particularly suitable as an oil absorbent.
Die die Samenhaare enthaltenden Samenkapseln dieser Pflanzen können mit den gleichen Maschinen gepflückt werden wie die Sa menkapseln der Baumwollpflanze.The seed capsules of these plants containing the seed hair can be picked with the same machines as the Sa capsules of the cotton plant.
Das nachstehende Beispiel dient der weiteren Erläuterung der Erfindung.The example below serves to further explain the Invention.
Aus 0,027 g Asclepias-Samenhaarflocken wurde mit einem grobmaschigen Kunststoffnetz ein Kissen mit einer Größe von et wa 10 cm mal 10 cm gebildet.0.027 g of Asclepias seed hair flakes was converted into a large-mesh plastic net a pillow with a size of et wa formed 10 cm by 10 cm.
Eine zylindrische Schale mit einem Durchmesser von ca. 20 cm wurde mit Wasser halb gefüllt, worauf 10 ml Motor-Altöl in die Schale gegossen wurden, wodurch sich ein dicker tiefbrauner Öl film auf der Wasseroberfläche bildete. A cylindrical bowl with a diameter of approx. 20 cm was half-filled with water and 10 ml of used engine oil was poured into the Shell were poured, creating a thick, deep brown oil film formed on the water surface.
Alsdann wurde das Haarflockenkissen auf den Ölfilm gelegt und mit einer Pinzette leicht angedrückt. Der Ölfilm wurde in weni gen Sekunden von dem Kissen vollständig aufgesogen.Then the hair flake pillow was placed on the oil film and lightly pressed with tweezers. The oil film was in few seconds away from the pillow.
Geht man von einem spezifischen Gewicht des Altöls von 0,75 g/ml aus, so ergibt sich daraus eine Ölaufnahme vom 278-fachen des Eigengewichts der Asclepias-Samenhaarflocken.Assuming a specific weight of the waste oil of 0.75 g / ml, this results in an oil absorption of 278 times the weight of the Asclepias seed hair flakes.
