PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING PULP FOR PAPER PRODUCTION.
No Drawing. Application filed November 5, 1926, Serial No. 146,575, and inGreat Britain August 17, 1926.
This invention relates to a new or imsolution of low concentration and at high proved process for the treatment of plant, pressure. The preliminary depectinizing woody and other cellulosic materials for the treatment avoids possibility of staining or production of pulp in paper manufacture colouring the substances on addition of the 60 and for other purposes. alkali.
Hitherto the pulp has been obtained'from Following the delignification the pulp is the woody or like tissue, mainly by either bleached and dried according to the ordinary one of two processes, viz :that known as methods of paper production. the sulphite process and that making use of The alkali used also may be recovered by 65 caustic alkali. The pulp obtained by the concentration electrolytically or in any other first process is not pure chemically and convenient manner. though it may be cheaply produced, tech- If desired, instead of treating the woody nical difliculties are encountered, the t-reator like raw material with the improved proment is lengthly, the time ranging from 6 cess, I may treat impure celluloses obtained 70 to hours, and serious corrosion of the by other methods such for example as sulplant occurs owing to sulphurous fumes. In phite pulp, soda pulp or the like, to obtain the second process making use of caustic a product pure enough for preparing cellusoda, it has not been found possible hitherto lose derivatives. to delignify the tissue satisfactorily with a As an example of the improved process as 20 solution of alkaliof lower concentration than applied to bagasse from sugar cane, the 68%. The use of an alkali liquor of such fibres are first disintegrated into lengths of a concentration considerably increases the from A to 1. This is done by the crushexpense of the process and even so the time ing rollers employed in the sugar expression of treatment cannot be allowed to fall below process. 1000 lbs. of this mass is then 25 from 4 to 6 hours. Up to the present efforts tritul'ated With 300 gallons preferably of to use high temperatures accompanied by a nearly boiling solution of 4% caustic use of concentrated solutions have resulted alkali. lVhen the whole of the soda soluin very considerable wastage due to alkaline tion is well mixed with the mass, this is hydrolysis of the cellulose to soluble prodthen transferred to a suitable digester and 30 ucts thus giving a lower yield and a mod heated say by steam under pressure, or by uct difiicult to bleach.
