Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for producing chemical pulp from comminuted cellulose- containing material without using sulphur-containing cooking liquids.
  • the process according to the invention includes at least one impregnation stage followed by at least one cooking stage, with a deligniflcation- acceleratmg compound, such as an anthraqumone, being supplied to at least one of the said stages.
  • a first cooking liquid which has been extracted from a position downstream of the impregnation stage is supplied to the impregnation stage, with the said first cooking liquid primarily containing OH " ions as the active substance.
  • a metal-complexing agent is supplied to the impregnation stage or to another stage located upstream of the cooking stage.
  • the process according to the invention is suitable for producing chemical pulp from essentially all the generally available raw materials for cellulose production.
  • suitable raw materials are softwood chips derived from fir and pine and hardwood chips derived from birch, aspen and eucalyptus.
  • the process according to the invention is also suitable for producing pulp from non-Scandinavian raw materials such as southern pine or loblolly pine and can also be used for producing pulp from straw, reed-grass, esparto grass and other alternative raw materials.
  • the process according to the invention is suitable both for producing pulp which i s intended for ECF or TCF bleaching and for producing unbleached high- yield pulp.
  • a familiar problem associated with producing pulp by the sulphate method or the sulphite method is the problem of troublesome smells in the vicinity of the pulp mill and, in certain cases, even at a distance of several tens of kilometres.
  • These smell problems are principally caused by various sulphur compounds which are produced when pulp is cooked using sulphur- containing cooking liquids. Examples of such malodorous compounds are hydrogen sulphide (HS) and methyl- mercaptan (CH,SH) .
  • HS hydrogen sulphide
  • CH,SH methyl- mercaptan
  • Various solutions, such as pur:fy ⁇ ng exhaust gases and improving the sealing of the pulp manufacturing process, have been proposed for remedying the smell problems.
  • a disadvantage of using sulphur-containing cooking liquids for cooking pulp is that a relatively complicated chemical recovery system is required in order to be able to recirculate the chemicals.
  • the presence of sulphur also impedes efforts, which have been in progress for a long time now, to close the pulp manufacturing process.
  • patent specification SE-C2-502 667 previously disclosed a method for producing chemical pulp from comminuted cellulose-containing material, which method comprised cooking the fibre material with a cooking liquid.
  • the object of the invention which is described is stated as being that of producing a chemical pulp which, after the cooking, already has a substantially reduced content of transition metals and at the same time has considerably improved properties, especially, but not exclusively, with regard to tear resistance, viscosity, yield, kappa number and brightness.
  • the method which is described for producing chemical pulp is stated to be suitable for any method for producing chemical pulp, including anthraquinone/hydroxide pulp (NaOH/KOH) as well. No cooking liquids containing sulphur are used in a pulp manufacturing process of this nature.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a process for producing chemical pulp from comminuted cellulose-containing material, which process yields a perfectly satisfactory pulp quality at a competitive cost without any sulphur-containing cooking liquid having to be used.
  • This object of the invention is achieved by the process according to the invention including at least one impregnation stage followed by at least one cooking stage with at least one concurrent cooking zone and at least one countercurrent cooking zone and, as the conclusion to the cooking stage, at least one extended displacement zone, with a delignification-acceleratmg compound being supplied to at least one of the said stages and a first cooking liquid, which has been drawn off from a position downstream of the impregnation stage, being supplied to the impregnation stage, with the cooking liquid essentially containing OH " ions as the active substance, and by the concentration of OH " ions in the said concurrent cooking zone being higher than m the said impregnation stage, preferably at least 20" higher and most preferably at least 50 higher.
  • the concentration of OH " ions at the beginning of the concurrent cooking zone of the cooking stage must exceed 0.5 mol/1, and preferably 0.7 mol/1. Most preferably, the concentration of OH ions must exceed 1.0 mol/1.
  • a delignification- acceleratmg compound for example anthraqumone, is supplied when the process according to the invention is being implemented.
  • the total delignification- acceleratmg compound added should exceed 1 kg per tonne of bone dry wood and preferably exceed 1.5 kg per tonne of bone dry wood.
  • the optimum amount to be added is between 1.8 and 2.5 kg per tonne of bone dry wood.
  • the quantity of delignification-acceleratmg compound which is added to the impregnation stage mutt be less than 50 ( ⁇ by weight of the total amount added and preferably less than 30. by weight. The best results are obtained if less than 10, by weight of the total amount of the delignification-acceleratmg compound added is added to the impregnation stage. It has also been found that the total quantity of delignification-acceleratmg compound which is added must exceed 0.5o by weight of the total quantity of effective alkali (EA) , calculated as NaOH, which is added to the process.
  • EA effective alkali
  • the total quantity of delignification-accelerating compound should exceed 1" by weight, and most preferably be from 1.1 to 1.5" by weight, of the total quantity of effective alkali (EA) which is added.
  • EA effective alkali
  • this provides a more efficient delignification process, thereby making it possible to achieve a second mam object of the invention, namely that of providing a process for producing chemical pulp, which process requires a lower temperature during cooking than do previously known processes for producing pulp without sulphur-containing cooking liquids, for example soda-anthraqumone cooking accordance with the state of the art.
  • the lower temperature level which can be used in the process according to the invention results in lower energy consumption and in there being less risk of carbohydrate breakdown.
  • the temperature in the impregnation stage when implementing the invention, may be within the interval 80-140°C, it should preferably be between 100 and 130°C, and should most preferably be between 120 and 127°C.

  • the temperature m the said cooking stage may be within the interval 140-165°C and should preferably be between 155 and 158°C.
  • a metal-complexmg agent is supplied to the impregnation stage or to another stage upstream of the cooking stage.
  • a metal-complexmg agent is understood as being a compound which has the ability to bind metals which are harmful to the pulp production process m the form of metal complexes which can, if required, be removed from the process.
  • metal complex-containing extraction liquid which has been extracted from the impregnation stage can be removed from the process or conveyed to evaporation.
  • an excess of cooking liquid which has been extracted from the cooking stage can be conveyed to evaporation at the same time.
  • DTPA diethyl- t ⁇ ammepentaacetic acid
  • EDTA ethylenediamine- tetraacetic acid
  • a second cooking liquid having a lower concentration of OH " ions than is present in the said first cooking liquid, is supplied to the previously mentioned extended displacement zone.

  • the kappa number is between 9 and 25, and preferably between 12 and 18, when hardwood pulp which is intended for bleaching is being cooked.
  • the kappa number is between 40 a d 100, and preferably between 50 and 85, when high-yield pulp which is not to be bleached is being cooked.

Abstract

Cette invention se rapporte à un procédé pour produire une pâte chimique à partir de matériaux contenant de la cellulose broyés sans utiliser de liquide de cuisson contenant du soufre, ce qui élimine les problèmes, par exemple les problèmes de mauvaises odeurs, qui sont associées aux liquides contenant du soufre. Ce procédé utilise au moins une phase d'imprégnation suivie par au moins une phase de cuisson, un composé accélérant la délignification étant utilisé au moins dans l'une de ces phases. Dans ce procédé, un premier liquide de cuisson, qui a été extrait d'une position en aval de la phase d'imprégnation et qui contient essentiellement des ions OH- comme substance active, est utilisé dans la phase d'imprégnation. Il est ainsi possible d'obtenir une concentration d'ions OH- plus grande que dans le cas d'une cuisson à la soude et à l'anthraquinone traditionnelle et d'utiliser une température de traitement plus basse. Ce procédé est approprié pour la production de pâte chimique essentiellement à partir de tous les matériaux bruts généralement disponibles pour la production de cellulose et également pour la production de pâte chimique à partir de matériaux bruts non scandinaves ainsi que pour la production de pâte chimique à partir d'autres matériaux bruts fibreux. Ce procédé est approprié à la fois pour la production de pâte chimique qui est destinée à un blanchiment exempt de chlore à l'état atomique ou à un blanchiment entièrement exempt de chlore et pour la production de pâte à rendement élevé non blanchie.
