Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of bleaching paper pulp utilizing ozone. More particularly, it relates to the use of wetted ozonized air as a bleaching agent.
  • the process according to the invention comprises passing a gaseous flow, coming from an ozonizer and titrating 2.5 to 18 mg. O /liter, preferably 4 to 16 mg./liter, into a saturator/moistener, then sending it as it escapes from the apparatus at a rate of 50 to 500 liter/hour, preferably 100 to 300 liter/hour Patented June 24, 1969 'ice during a time of /22 /2 hours, preferably 1 to 2 hours, to a shredded paper pulp, with a dryness of 30-65%, having a pH near neutrality and maintained at a temperature of 20 to 30 C.
  • the moisture state of the gaseous flow is an essential element of the process according to the present invention.
  • the ozonized air must have a relative moisture near In any case it is necessary that the moisture content be the highest possible in order to avoid any drying variation of the pulp in treatment and to give to bleaching its efficiency maximum.
  • the ozonized gaseous flow according to the invention may be constituted not only by air, as this is considered during this description, but also by oxygen.
  • Azone titre and gaseous rate may be selected in the present invention field wiht regard to the variables inherent to the used installation without being prejudicial to the obtained result: indeed experiment has shown that the important factor in this field is the weight of used ozone per time unit. For example a fairly similar whiteness will be obtained in carrying out the process during the same time: A gaseous flow at a rate of 300 l./hr., titrating 6.10 mg. 0 /1. (that is 1830 mg. O /hr.); a gaseous flow at a rate of 200 l./hr., titrating 9.30 mg. 0 /1. (that is 1860 mg. O /hr.).
  • Treatment time may vary in the limits of 30 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes according to the conditions selected in the field in order to give a maximum treatment efiiciency. This may easily be established with regard to the selected gaseous rate and/or ozone titre, so as to obtain the desired bleaching degree. For example, a whiteness, Elrepho of 60 may be obtained:
  • Ozonized air rate (l./hr.) 100 200 300 Ozone titre (in mg./l.):
  • the bleaching method according to the present invention is limited neither by raw material nature nor by the process used for paper pulp fabrication.
  • pulps obtained from wood of resinous or long leaf trees and prepared by soda, sulfite or sulfate process fit quite well to the method according to the invention.
  • Dryness, percent; Elrepho whiteness A eucalyptus kraft pulp, treated at a rate of 200 l./hr. with an ozone concentration of 9.5 mg./l. has the following values:
  • the ozonized air stream saturated with moisture should be at the same temperature as that at which the pulp is maintained during reaction. Moreover, it must be taken care that the cellulosic material does not undergo notable temperature increase during ozonization. For this reason the equipment may possibly be provided with a cooling system.
  • the process according to the present invention offers a great ease in application since it consists of sending ozonized air to paper pulp in an only working stage.
  • the treatment may be made in a discontinuous way, but also in a continuous one, which is interesting for industrial applications. Indeed experiment shows the method according to the invention may be made in a continuous way without residual ozone in the air at the bleaching tower outlet.
  • ozone treatment may be inserted into a bleaching sequence in several stages, ozonization being able to come before or to follow the usual treatments with hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorite or chlorine and soda.
  • EXAMPLE 1 A sample A of 25 g. of pine kraft unbleached pulp having a dryness rate of 40% g. of dry extract) is shredded and put into a glass flask provided with an inlet tube and a gas recovery tube. The pulp has a pH of 7 and is maintained at a temperature of 20 C. An ozonized air stream titrating 15.5 mg./l. ozone is saturated with moisture at 20 C. in a moistener and enters the flask at a rate of l./hr. The treatment is carried on for 2 hours.
  • a second identical sample, B is treated in the same conditions but the ozonized air stream titrates 7.0 mg./l. ozone and is sent to the flask at a rate of 200 l./ hr.
  • EXAMPLE 2 This example illustrates the very clear superiority of the bleaching with moistened ozonized air according to the present invention, with regard to the known process with dry ozonized air.
  • a method in accordance with claim 1 comprising: passing a gaseous mixture of ozone containing 2.5-18 mg. O /liter and having a moisture content near 100%,
  • said gaseous mixture consists essentially of air, water and ozone.
