摘要:
One embodiment provides an apparatus for cooking lignocellulosic material, comprising a pressurizable, inclined top separator including a sluicing liquor inlet for receiving a sluicing mixture comprising impregnated lignocellulosic material and sluicing liquor, a hot black liquor inlet, an excess liquor outlet, and an impregnated lignocellulosic material outlet; a continuous digester vessel including an impregnated lignocellulosic material inlet in communication with the impregnated lignocellulosic material outlet, and a warm black liquor outlet; and a black liquor circulation and heating loop including a warm black liquor inlet in communication with said warm black liquor outlet, a heater for heating warm black liquor to produce hot black liquor, and a hot black liquor outlet in communication with said hot black liquor inlet. Methods of making and using the apparatus are also provided.
摘要:
The invention relates to an improved two vessel cooking system, wherein the first vessel is an atmospheric impregnation vessel and the second vessel is a pressurized digester, where hot black liquor is finally flashed off inside the impregnation vessel for steaming the cellulosic material and providing the impregnation liquor. According to the inventive method is an additional cleaner wash liquor heated and added to final cook zone in digester, while displacing a corresponding amount of hot black liquor before the final cook zone, and the heat value in the hot black liquor is recovered first in transport circulation before being used as source for flashing off steam used to steam the comminuted cellulosic material inside the impregnation liquor and final use as impregnation liquor. The invention results in a cooking process with high yield and improved delignification in final cooking phases and reduced COD content in the produced pulp without increasing steam consumption.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for obtaining cellulose or a mixture containing at least cellulose and at least lignocellulose from at least one substrate that is at least to some extent amenable to fermentation comprising at least the steps of (1) to (3) and optionally (4), namely conversion of the substrate via addition of at least one inorganic base into an aqueous mixture with pH ≥ 8.5 (step 1), ultrasound treatment of the aqueous mixture obtained after step (1) (step 2), separation of the aqueous mixture obtained after step (2) into a liquid aqueous phase and a disperse mixture containing cellulose or a mixture containing at least cellulose and at least lignocellulose (step 3) and optionally purification of the disperse mixture obtained after step (3) containing cellulose or of the mixure containing at least cellulose and at least lignocellulose (step 4), where step (1) and step (2) of the process respectively are carried out at a temperature
摘要:
The invention relates to a central screen element being located substantially parallel with the vertical axis of a pulp digester. In the vertical direction, the screen element comprises at least one zone including one screen segment for removing a liquid stream from the digester and at least one outlet for introducing a liquid stream to the digester. The zones may be adjacent or separated and by means of these, liquid streams may be independently removed and introduced, as required by the properties and the stage of the cooking process. A screen element according to the invention may be used in both continuous and batch digesters.
摘要:
Process for continuously cooking chemical pulp in a digester system consisting of at least one vessel for impregnating and cooking comprising an inlet into which a mixture of chips and process liquid is fed. The chips are impregnated at a predetermined impregnation temperature Timp, and cooked at a predetermined cooking temperature Tcook, after which dissolved pulp is fed out at the outlet of the digester system. Process liquid which is continually extracted is retained outside the digester system during a dwell time, t, of at least 30 min, without any heating above 140°, and thereafter returned to the digester system to a position which is substantially at the same level as the extraction, or downstream thereof, and thereby constitute part of the process liquid in the subsequent treatment zone. The process results in improved tear strength, beatability, bleachability and reduced colour reversion, and increased yield across the digester.
