Abstract
Description
本発明は上記事実を考慮し、設備のメンテナンス性に優れた感光性平版印刷版の製版処理廃液の処理方法を提供することを課題とする。
<全体構成>
図1に示すように、本実施形態に係る廃液処理装置10は、感光性平版印刷版の製版処理に伴って排出される現像液の廃液を貯蔵する処理液タンク20、処理液タンク20より送られた廃液を減圧下で加熱し、蒸発する水分と残留する濃縮物(スラリー)とに分離する蒸発釜30、蒸発釜30で水蒸気として分離された水分を導入し、冷却・凝結して再生水とする冷却釜40、冷却釜40で凝結した再生水を貯蔵する再生水タンク50、蒸発釜30内部と冷却釜40内部との間で熱を移動させるヒートポンプユニット60が設けられている。
以下、各処理部について説明する。
図示しない製版処理機において感光性平版印刷版の現像処理が行われると、例えば現像処理された感光性平版の処理面積に応じて現像液が廃液として排出される。例えば現像液を満たした現像槽に、露光を行った感光性平版を浸漬し、感光性平版の表面(露光面)に対して現像処理が行われる。
処理液タンク20は廃液を送る配管21で蒸発釜30へ接続されている。蒸発釜30は例えば密閉された縦長の略円筒形などの形状とされ、処理液タンク20より送られた廃液が内部に貯留される。蒸発釜30の内部には加熱コイル32が設けられ、内部の廃液を加熱し水分を水蒸気として蒸発させ、廃液の水分を除去して体積を圧縮する。
蒸発釜30の下部30Bには、その底部より廃液濃縮物(スラリー)を排出する濃縮物排出口38が設けられ、例えば図示しない電磁バルブなどで制御部より開閉制御可能とされている。濃縮物排出口38は濃縮物回収配管80に接続され、濃縮物回収配管80は回収タンク86へ廃液濃縮物を送る。濃縮物回収配管80はバルブ82を介して濃縮物排出口38よりポンプ84で回収タンク86まで配管81で接続されており、濃縮物排出口38から排出される濃縮物をポンプ84で吸引、加圧して回収タンクへ圧送する構成とされている。
蒸発釜30の上部30Aには冷却釜40が連通路39で連通されている。蒸発釜30の上部30Aに滞留する水蒸気は対流または加熱により加圧され、連通路39を通過して冷却釜40へ移動する。あるいは連通路39内部にファンなどの送風手段が設けられていてもよい。冷却釜40は蒸発釜30と同様、例えば略密閉された縦長の略円筒形などの形状でよく、内部には蒸発釜30より連通路39を通過した水蒸気が滞留する。
冷却釜40で凝縮され、再生水とされた水蒸気は排水口44より再生水循環装置90で吸引され、再生水タンク50へ貯留される。
冷却釜40の底部に設けられた排水口44には再生水循環装置90が接続されている。再生水循環装置90は水流ポンプ92と、水流ポンプ92に接続され水流で負圧を発生させるアスピレータ94と、排水口44からアスピレータ94によって吸引された再生水を、再生水タンク50へ送る配管91、93を備えている。
蒸発釜30の内部に設けられた加熱コイル32を加熱し、冷却釜40の内部に設けられた冷却コイル42を冷却するため例えば両者を結合し、内部に冷媒を循環させるヒートポンプユニット60が設けられていてもよい。
再生水タンク50のオーバーフロー排水口52から洗浄水タンク70へ送られた再生水は、曝気ポンプ56によるエアーの供給でpHは十分に低いため、そのまま配管78を経由して排水路79(下水など)に排出することが可能とされている。
本発明に用いられる現像液を使用した場合、最大1/5~1/8の容量まで、析出物等なく濃縮が可能である。好ましい処理能力は2L~4L/時である。これ以上の能力にすると、濃縮釜等の容量が大きくなるため設置面積が大きくなったり、設備を導入するためのコストが大きくなったりするため好ましくない。
本発明の製版処理廃液の処理方法において、感光性平版印刷版の現像に用いる現像液および補充液としては、緩衝作用を有する有機化合物と塩基とを主成分とし、実質上、二酸化ケイ素を含有しないアルカリ現像液を用いることを要する。本発明では、このような現像液を以下、「非シリケート現像液」と称する。なお、ここで「実質上」とは不可避の不純物及び副生成物としての微量の二酸化ケイ素の存在を許容することを意味する。
従来の感光性平版印刷版の現像液として最も一般的に使用されていたのは珪酸ナトリウム、珪酸カリウム等の珪酸塩水溶液である。その理由は珪酸塩の成分である酸化珪素SiO 2とアルカリ金属酸化物M2Oの比率(一般に[SiO2]/[M2O]のモル比で表す)と濃度によってある程度現像性の調節が可能とされるためである。また、ほとんど全てのポジ型感光性平版印刷版が現像にpH13前後の強アルカリを必要とし、珪酸塩がそのpH領域で良好な緩衝作用を示し、安定した現像ができるためである。しかしながら、主成分である珪酸塩は、アルカリ性領域では安定であるが、中性ではゲル化、不溶化し、また蒸発乾固により析出するとフッ化水素酸のような強烈な酸にしか溶けなくなる欠点を持っている。このため、この処理廃液を濃縮する過程で珪酸塩が不溶化し析出してしまうので、濃縮液を別の容器に移液したり、濃縮処理を継続して実施したりするためには不溶化した珪酸塩を取り除く必要があり、濃縮装置のメンテナンス性が著しく低下する。
本発明の現像液には、現像性の促進や現像カスの分散および印刷版画像部の親インキ性を高める目的で必要に応じて種々界面活性剤や有機溶剤を添加できる。好ましい界面活性剤としては、アニオン系、カチオン系、ノニオン系および両性界面活性剤が挙げられる。
本発明の現像液には、種々の現像安定化剤が用いられる。それらの好ましい例として、特開平6-282079号公報記載の糖アルコールのポリエチレングリコール付加物、テトラブチルアンモニウムヒドロキシドなどのテトラアルキルアンモニウム塩、テトラブチルホスホニウムブロマイドなどのホスホニウム塩およびジフェニルヨードニウムクロライドなどのヨードニウム塩が好ましい例として挙げられる。
現像液には現像性を確保するため、更に必要により有機溶剤が加えられる。かかる有機溶剤としては、水に対する溶解度が約10質量%以下のものが適しており、好ましくは5質量%以下のものから選ばれる。例えば、1-フェニルエタノール、2-フェニルエタノール、3-フェニル-1-プロパノール、2-フェノキシエタノール、2-ベンジルオキシエタノール、ベンジルアルコール、シクロヘキサノール、N-フェニルエタノールアミンなどを挙げることができる。有機溶剤の含有量は使用液の総重量に対して5質量%以下である。より好ましくは1質量%以下である。含有量が多すぎると、可溶化剤としての界面活性剤の量を増やす必要が生じ、好ましくない。また、処理廃液の濃縮過程で有機溶媒が蒸発することで、有機溶媒の存在により現像液に対しての溶解性を確保していた画像形成層の成分が析出し、スラッジを発生させる懸念があるため、濃縮装置のメンテナンス性が著しく低下する。
本発明の現像液には更に還元剤を加えることができる。これは印刷版の汚れを防止するものである。好ましい有機還元剤としては、ハイドロキノン、レゾルシンなどのフェノール化合物、フェニレンジアミン、フェニルヒドラジンなどのアミン化合物が挙げられる。更に好ましい無機の還元剤としては、亜硫酸、亜硫酸水素酸、亜リン酸、亜リン酸水素酸、亜リン酸二水素酸、チオ硫酸および亜ジチオン酸などの無機酸のナトリウム塩、カリウム塩、アンモニウム塩などを挙げることができる。これらの還元剤のうち、汚れ防止効果が特に優れているのは亜硫酸塩である。これらの還元剤を用いる場合には使用時の現像液に対して好ましくは、0.05~5質量%の範囲で含有される。
本発明の現像液には更に必要に応じて、更に公知の添加剤を加えてもよい。例えば、有機カルボン酸、防腐剤、着色剤、増粘剤、消泡剤および硬水軟化剤などを含有させることもできる。
現像液の残余の成分は水である。本発明の現像液は、使用時よりも水の含有量を少なくした濃縮液としておき、使用時に水で希釈するようにしておくことが運搬上有利である。この場合の濃縮度は各成分が分離や析出を起こさない程度が適当である。
以下、本発明の現像液が好ましく適用できる平版印刷版について詳しく説明する。
本発明の製版方法に使用するポジ型平版印刷版(平版印刷版原版とも称する)は、支持体上に、アルカリ可溶性樹脂及び赤外線吸収染料を含み、さらに所望により溶解抑制剤などを含有する画像記録層を設けたものである。
以下に、その画像記録層の構成について説明する。
本発明において、画像記録層に用いられる赤外線吸収染料は、赤外線を吸収し熱を発生する染料であれば特に制限はなく、赤外線吸収染料として知られる種々の染料を用いることができる。
画像記録層に使用されるアルカリ可溶性樹脂は、水不溶性且つアルカリ水可溶性の樹脂(以下、適宜、アルカリ可溶性高分子と称する)であって、高分子中の主鎖および/または側鎖に酸性基を含有する単独重合体、これらの共重合体またはこれらの混合物を包含する。したがって、平版印刷版原版の画像記録層は、アルカリ性現像液に接触すると溶解する特性を有するものである。
画像記録層の塗布量(固形分)は、用途によって異なるが、皮膜特性及び耐刷性の観点から0.3~3.0g/m2の塗布量で設けることができる。好ましくは0.5~2.5g/m2であり、さらに好ましくは0.8~1.6g/m2である。
平版印刷版原版に使用される親水性支持体としては、必要な強度と耐久性を備えた寸度的に安定な板状物が挙げられ、例えば、紙、プラスチック(例えば、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリスチレン等)がラミネートされた紙、金属板(例えば、アルミニウム、亜鉛、銅等)、プラスチックフィルム(例えば、二酢酸セルロース、三酢酸セルロース、プロピオン酸セルロース、酪酸セルロース、酢酸酪酸セルロース、硝酸セルロース、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリエチレン、ポリスチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリカーボネート、ポリビニルアセタール等)、上記のごとき金属がラミネート、もしくは蒸着された紙、もしくはプラスチックフィルム等が挙げられる。中でも、ポリエステルフィルム又はアルミニウム板が好ましく、その中でも寸法安定性がよく、比較的安価であるアルミニウム板は特に好ましい。
以上、本発明の実施例について記述したが、本発明は上記の実施例に何ら限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲において種々なる態様で実施し得ることは言うまでもない。
