    摘要: The present invention concerns a method for the recovery of solvent in a process for preparation of regenerated cellulosic fibers using sodium hydroxide as solvent for cellulose dissolving in the manufacturing of a cellulose spinning dope wherein sodium hydroxide present in the spinning dope is at least partially recovered and recycled as sodium hydroxide from a cellulose fiber regeneration or cellulose coagulation step and wherein said cellulose fiber regeneration or cellulose coagulation step consists of a bath into which cellulose spinning dope is injected. Recovered sodium hydroxide may be directly or indirectly recycled from a cellulose fiber regeneration or cellulose coagulation step to a cellulose dissolving step.

    摘要: The present invention describes a method for the production of a spinning dope composition, said method comprising a homogenization involving vigorous mixing of a cellulosic pulp material in alkali solution, vigorous mixing implying supplying a power density to agitators used in the homogenization step of at least 150 k W/m3 (k W supplied to agitators per mixed unit of liquid volume), and thereafter a dissolution involving mixing of the cellulosic pulp material in the alkali solution to obtain a spinning dope composition, wherein the power density supplied to agitators used in the dissolution step is maximum 75 k W/m3 (k W supplied to agitators per mixed unit of liquid volume); and wherein the cellulosic pulp material in alkali solution is kept at a temperature of less than 0° C. during the homogenization and during at least part of the dissolution. The present invention is also directed to a system intended for the production of a spinning dope composition.
