    Abstract: A method for recovering mono-ethylene glycol from a mixture feed comprising bio-derived diols is disclosed. The mixture feed comprises mono-ethylene glycol in an amount of at least 80 weight-% of the total weight of the mixture feed. The method comprises: —providing the mixture feed into a distillation column, wherein a distillation process is carried out, wherein the distillation column comprises at least 80 theoretical stages and wherein the mixture feed is fed into the distillation column at a point, which is at a height of 5-20% of the total height of the distillation column as calculated from the top of the distillation column, wherein the total height of the distillation column is determined based on the number of theoretical stages, and wherein the distillation process is carried out with a reflux ratio of 20-200; and —recovering mono-ethylene glycol. Further is disclosed a distillation arrangement.

    Abstract: A process for producing a nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel comprises obtaining bleached cellulose pulp fibers and providing an aqueous suspension thereof; and subjecting the cellulose pulp fibers in the aqueous suspension to at least 2 cycles of high pressure mechanical disintegration to obtain a nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel and thereby reducing the number of viable microorganisms present in the suspension by a factor of at least 102; wherein all steps of the process after obtaining the bleached cellulose pulp fibers are performed under conditions of ISO 8 of ISO 14644-1 cleanroom standards or stricter. A nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel, a system for producing the same and the use of a disintegrating apparatus are also disclosed.

    Abstract: In a method for producing nanofibrillar cellulose, cellulose based fibre material, in which internal bonds in cellulose fibres have been weakened by preliminary modification of cellulose, is subjected to disintegration treatment in form of pulp comprising fibres and liquid. The fibre material is supplied at a consistency higher than 10 wt-%, preferably at least 15 wt-%, to a disintegration treatment where fibrils are detached from the fibre material by joint effect of repeated impacts to the fibre material by fast moving successive elements and the weakened internal bonds of the cellulose fibres. The nanofibrillar cellulose is withdrawn from the disintegration treatment at dry matter which is equal or higher than the consistency of the fibre material. In the disintegration treatment, the fibre material is supplied through several counter-rotating rotors (R1, R2, R3 . . . ) outwards in the radial direction with respect to the rotation axis (RA) of the rotors in such a way that the material is repeatedly subjected to shear and impact forces by the effect of the blades (1) of the different counter-rotating rotors.

    Abstract: Cellulose is oxidized catalytically using a heterocyclic nitroxyl radical as catalyst, main oxidant acting as oxygen source, and an activator of the heterocyclic nitroxyl radical. The oxidation is performed in a reaction medium which is at medium consistency of cellulosic pulp, which is above 6%, more preferably equal to or higher than 8%, and most preferably in the range of 8-12%. The reaction medium is mixed in a reactor through circulation of the reaction medium back to the reactor.
