摘要:
A process for the delignification and bleaching of a lignocellulosic pulp slurry, having a consistency between about 1% and 10%, by weight of oven-dried pulp, and a pH between about 1 and 7, while at a temperature between about 0.degree. C. and 70.degree. C., with a gaseous mixture selected from the group consisting of ozone/oxygen, ozone/air, and a mixture thereof. The ozone containing gaseous mixture, which has an ozone concentration of from about 0.1% to about 20%, by weight of oxygen or air, is bubbled into the pulp slurry, while agitating the pulp slurry at a rate of about 0.01 to 5.0 horsepower-days per ton of pulp.
摘要:
An process for increasing the yields of wood pulp and improving the viscosity of the pulp during oxygen-alkali delignification is provided whereby, in a wood pulp at a consistency of about 1-10%, there are present, in the pulp to be delignified, small amounts of ammonia or a compound which releases ammonia under the alkaline conditions of the process.
摘要:
A chlorine-free bleaching process for lignocellulosic pulp characterized by a series of bleaching stages comprising in sequence a peroxide bleaching stage, the peroxide being selected from the group consisting of alkaline hydrogen peroxide, acidic hydrogen peroxide, and peroxy acid and at least one ozone bleaching stage and in one embodiment the sequence including an initial oxygen bleaching stage before the peroxide bleaching stage. In continuous operation the effluent from each of these sequential stages provides the preferred wash for the preceding washing step and the diluent for the preceding bleaching stage, the final effluent being recyclable for effective closed cycle operation.
摘要:
An improved peroxide based brightening and delignifying solution and process for liqnocellulosic pulp, characterized by selective delignification and pulp viscosity retention is disclosed. The process comprises maintaining a pulp slurry to a temperature between 40.degree. C. and 120.degree. C. for 0.5 hours to 8 hours. The slurry comprises lignocellulosic pulp; from 0.1% to 20% by weight based on O.D. pulp of peroxide; from 0.1% to 10% by weight based on O.D. pulp of a metal-containing additive whose metallic portion is selected from the group consisting of tin, titanium, and vanadium; and sufficient acid to maintain the .sub.f H of the slurry between about 1 and about 7. In a preferred embodiment of this invention, a tin additive is employed and the partially delignified and brightened pulp is further bleached with the unconsumed peroxide by adjusting the pH of the slurry to between 8 and 12 and maintaining the temperature of the slurry from 40.degree. C. to 90.degree. C. for 0.1 to 4 hours.
