Definitions
- ABSTRACT A process is provided for bleaching and delignifying cellulose pulps that have previously been subjected to a partial delignification under alkaline conditions with an oxygen-containing gas, which comprises delignifying the pulp with a mixture of chlorine and chlorine dioxide, and then dissolving chlorinated lignin in a further alkaline treatment.
- This invention relates to a process for delignifying cellulose that is not removed is discolored. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the amount of chlorine at the minimum that will give effective delignification, while chlorine alone is not sufficient,
- Chlorine is considered to be the most effective and least expensive of the delignifying agents that are available. However, it has a tendency to decompose the cellulose,

- the temperamulti-stage bleaching processes employ a chlorination stage ture n be rather from to but in the so-called and an alkali treatment stage, and the reason is that these hot alkali refining processes, for producing pulp with a high stages are required for delignification.
- Some sulfate pulps are alpha cellulose content, temperatures of up to 130 C. can be more difficult to delignify than others, and in the case of these employed.
- the treatment time can be very short, for just pulps, one chlorination stage may be insufficient to delignify several minutes, up to from four to five hours. The amount of the pulp sufficiently.
- a complementary delignification alkali charged to the system varies according to the properties stage can be carried out in an additional chlorination stage, or i of the pulp which it is desired to produce. in the case of paper in a hypochlorite treatment stage, or in a chlorine dioxide pulps, it is usually carried out in such a manner that the pH at treatment stage. the conclusion of the treatment is within the range from about The conditions under which the various treatment stages 8 to about 12.5,generally about i 1.

- stage H is also carried out at marized in Table A, which follows: 7, relatively high pulp consistencies, normally from about 4 to TABLE A Pulp consistency, Tempera- Time, Stage Treatment percent ture, 0. hours
- Bleaching includes the chemical steps of decomposing the about 18 percent.
- the temperatures are usually rather higher than in either the chlorination or the alkali treatment, and range from about 25 to about 60 C.
- the treatment time is also somewhat longer, from one hour and upwards, normally from two to four hours.
- the quantity of hypochlorite charged and thii is .75 l e z em ar a withlhstm tpyln #BLt n io and is based on the amount of chlorine provided.
- the amount can range from vary small amounts, of the order of 0.2 percent C1 by weight of the pulp, to 3 percent C1,, based on the weight of dry pulp.
- This treatment is also carried out in a manner to ensure that a small excess of chlorine remains at the conclusion of the treatment, about 0.1 percent by weight of the pulp.
- the amount of alkali charged as NaOH can be within the range from about 10 to about 100 percent by weight of the chlorine charged to the system in this stage, so as to ensure that at the conclusion of the hypochlorite treatment the pH is above 8.5, and is normally within the range from 10 to 11.
- the chlorine dioxide treatment is carried out with the same pulp consistency as the hypochlorite treatment, although in practice a somewhat lower consistency can be used, since the chlorine dioxide is obtained in a more dilute form than the hypochlorite solution.
- the pulp consistency during chlorine dioxide treatment can be within the range from about 4 to about percent.
- the temperature is higher, within the range from about 50 to about 90 C., and normally about 70 C.
- the treatment time is at least two hours, and can be from three to five hours.
- the quantity of chlorine dioxide charged to the system is based on the amount of chlorine equivalent to the chlorine dioxide within the range from about 0.5 to about 3 percent C1 based on the weight of the dry pulp, and sometimes even more than 3 percent, up to about 5 percent.
- This treatment is also carried out in a manner to ensure a small excess, about 0.! percent to 0.5 percent C1,, at the end of the treatment.
- the usual bleaching process for sulfate pulps includes six stages, in the order C E H D E D, the letters corresponding to the treatment stages set out above.
- An alkali extraction normally follows one or more stages of delignification, to remove solubilized lignins and other extractives. These stages can also be arranged in other combinations, for example,
- C E C E H D E D C E H C H D E D C H E D E D C E D E D Sulfite pulps can be bleached with shorter bleaching sequences, and illustrative sequences include C E C E D C E H D C E D H C E H H C E H It will be noted that in all of the sequences in common use for sulfate and sulfite pulps, the first treatment stage is invariably a chlorination stage, and the second treatment stage is almost invariably an alkali or extraction stage, to remove the lignins and other alkali-soluble extractives.
- hypochlorite stage serves as a substitute second chlorination stage, seeking to reduce the risk of cellulose decomposition in the first chlorination stage.
- this hypochlorite stage comprises an alkali treatment immediately following the chlorination. An alkali extraction is interposed wherever more alkalisoluble extractives are to be removed.
- the chlorination be carried out using a mixture of chlorine and chlorine dioxide.
- the amount of chlorine dioxide can be rather small, up to a major proportion.
- the chlorination is otherwise carried out in the usual way under the treatment conditions as set out in Table A above.
- the degree of amelioration obtained of the tendency to decompose the cellulose is not under these conditions sufficient to compensate for the considerable increase in the cost of the chlorination, due to the higher cost of chlorine dioxide as compared to chlorine.
- the amelioration of the decomposition of the cellulose may also be accompanied by an incomplete delignification, as a result of which it becomes necessary to introduce another chlorination stage, or a hypochlorite or chlorine dioxide treatment stage, so as to complete the necessary delignification. In this event, there remains the possibility of decomposition of the cellulose during this complementary stage.
- oxygen is capable of oxidizing lignin, partially solubilizing the lignin, and rendering the residual lignin brighter.
- the partial pressure of the oxygen at the beginning of the treatment should be at least one atmosphere. Lower pressures can be used, but normally an oxygen pressure of from about 2 to about 12 atmospheres is preferred. Still higher pressures can be used, but this increases the cost of reactor and of operation. At low temperatures, e.g.
- the reactions proceed slowly, so that reactors of high capacity are required for large production rates.
- the treatment is normally carried out at a temperature within the range from about C. 130 C., preferably at about to 1 10 C.
- the consistency of the cellulosic material may be varied within wide limits without jeopardizing the reaction, e.g. between 3 and 45 percent.
- Treatment at low pulp consistencies of 10 to 15 percent requires a reactor in which the pulp is strongly agitated, to achieve a satisfactory delignification. If higher pulp consistencies are employed, no agitation of the pulp is required.
- the pulp should be shredded mechanically after or as the chemicals are supplied.
- the amount of alkali required for the process depends upon the quantity of lignin and hemicellulose which it is desired to remove. Normally, the amount of alkali (calculated as NaOH is from about 0.5 to about 12 percent, based on the weight of the cellulosic material. Amounts of from 7 to 12 percent are needed to solubilize large amounts oflignin and/or hemiccllulose. For pulps of low lignin content, amounts of from 0.5 to 7 percent are usually sufficient. The dissolution of hemicellulose decreases as the amount of alkali is reduced.
- the selectivity of the oxygen-alkali treatment for dissolution of lignin is considerably improved, if an inhibitor for the reaction of oxygen with carbohydrates of the pulp, such as a magnesium compound, is added.
- the process of the present invention avoids these disadvantages, without excessive degradation of the pulp, and a concomitant viscosity reduction.
- a second bleaching and delignifying stage in which a mixture of chlorine and chlorine dioxide is used (referred to herein as a C/D stage) can be arranged to follow as a first oxygen-bleaching and delignifying stage, and a later alkali extraction stage can then dissolve the chlorinated lignin, with good control of the decomposition of the cellulose pulp, as well as an at least substantially better bleaching and delignification than in prior oxygen-alkali pulp treatment processes, and in many cases, a substantially complete bleaching and delignification.
- the first bleaching and delignification stage is carried out under alkaline conditions with an oxygen-containing gas until a partial delignification has resulted, and in a subsequent treatment stage, without intermediate chlorination, delignification is continued with a mixture of chlorine and chlorine dioxide at a temperature of within the range from about 20 to about 70 C. for a period of from 0.5 to 5 hours and at a pulp consistency of at least 2 percent and preferably between about 3 and about percent, and then the pulp is subjected to at least one further treatment stage under alkaline conditions, to dissolve chlorinated lignin.
- pulps are obtained which combine high brightness and high viscosity to an extent hardly achievable by conventional bleaching processes.
- the tendency to brightness reversion of the pulp is also very low.
- Bleaching according to this invention of an oxygen-alkali treated pulp by a C/D stage and one or more chlorine dioxide stages with intermediate alkali treatment stages involves a reduction in bleaching cost (as compared to conventional bleaching methods) of the order of $2.00 per ton of dry pulp.
- the chlorine-chlorine dioxide treatment and/or the final alkali extraction stage to dissolve chlorinated lignin can be followed by one or more hypochlorite (l-l) and/or chlorine dioxide (D) bleaching stages, interleaved with alkaline extraction stages (E), under conventional conditions, as shown in Table A in the multistage pulp bleaching and delignification process of the invention, the first oxygen-alkali treatment stage can be carried out in the presence of alkali in the normal way.
- the partial pressure of oxygen at the beginning of the treatment should be at least one atmosphere. However, lower pressures can be used, when a slower reaction is acceptable.
- the process can be carried out at pressures approximating atmospheric pressure, while if air is used, because of the lower proportion of oxygen, higher pressures, usually superatmospheric pressures, are employed. If oxygen is used, a practical upper limit is 20 atmospheres, while if air is used, a practical upper limit is 60 atmospheres. The higher the pressure, the more rapid the reaction. Usually, an oxygen gas pressure within the range from about 2 to about 12 atmospheres is preferred.
- the treatment is usually carried out at a temperature within the range from about 80 to about 150 C. If it is desired to reduce the viscosity of the pulp, the higher temperatures can be used, of the order of 130 to 140 C, When treating sulfate paper pulps, a lower temperature is used, if a significant reduction of the hemicellulose content is not desired. If a significant reduction of the hemicellulose is desired, however, then it is desirable to employ a rather high temperature. Usually, in the case of sulfate paper pulps, the treatment is carried out advantageously at from to C.
- the temperature can be varied upwardly or downwardly, progressively or continuously, during the process. It is in many cases desirable to begin the reaction at a low temperature, and then to gradually increase the temperature during the reaction. This is particularly true in the case of pulps containing hemicellulose which in an unoxidized condition is attached by alkali, for example, sulfite pulps, and semichemical pulps.
- the reaction temperature is low while the hemicellulose remains unoxidized, but as it becomes oxidized, in the course of the reaction, the temperature can be increased, thus reducing the total reaction time.
- the concentration of cellulosic material in the reaction mixture can be varied within wide limits, and is in no way critical. Concentrations within the range from about 3 to about 45 percent are employed. It is, however, preferable to effect the treatment at a concentration in excess of 10 percent, and preferably within the range from about 15 to about 35 percent. When high pulp concentrations are treated, the pulp should be shredded mechanically after or at the same time as the reagent chemicals are added to the reaction mixture.
- the cellulosic material is first impregnated with an aqueous solution of a soluble magnesium salt, or an aqueous solution of the components which in admixture give rise to the soluble magnesium salt, before being treated with air or oxygen.
- the excess of the impregnating solution can then be removed, for example, by filtering and/or by pressing, before the treatment is begun.
- the solution that is removed can, of course, be used for impregnating additional cellulosic material.
- the amount of alkali required in the treatment depends on the quantity of lignin and/or hemicellulose which it is desired to remove. Normally, the alkali charge (calculated as NaOl-l) is within the range from about 0.5 to about 12 percent NaOH, based on the weight of the cellulosic material present. Other alkalis can be used, such as potassium hydroxide or lithium hydroxide, in which event the amounts are changed proportionately. If it is desired to dissolve large quantities of lignin and/or hemicellulose during the process, an alkaline charge within the range of about 7 to about 12 percent can be used. When treating a pulp having a low lignin content, in which case a smaller amount of lignin and/or hemicellulose is to be dissolved, the charge can be within the range from about 0.5 to about 7 percent.
- the proportion of hemicellulose dissolved decreases as the amount of alkali is reduced, and accordingly, the amount of both the lignin and the hemicellulose dissolved can be regulated by control of the amount of alkali added.
- the alkali attacks the lignin preferentially, and by limiting the amount of alkali present at any given time, it is possible to remove the lignin with a minimum of attack upon the cellulose and hemicellulose in the course of the reaction.
- the desired grade of pulp can thus be controlled by the manner and rate at which the alkali is charged to the system, and the size of the alkali charge, and the reaction time.
- the alkali can be combined with the pulp either before, during, or after combination with a soluble magnesium salt, and it can be introduced in whole or in part in this way.
- the mixing with alkali can be effected at the desired reaction temperature, or at a lower temperature, after which the temperature is increased to reaction temperature.
- the reaction time required decreases with an increased oxygen gas pressure and the reaction temperature. If the oxygen gas pressure is high, and the reaction temperature is high, thereaction can be complete in rather a short time, for example, five minutes.
- oxygen gas is employed at atmospheric pressure, treatment times of 10 hours and more can be used. Normally, however, in a commercial process, where a high rate of production per hour is desirable, the reaction times will be within the range from about 10 to about 120 minutes.
- the reaction time is easy to control, since the reaction halts when the alkali is consumed, and thus the reaction time can be increased or shortened, depending upon the amount of alkali added at any given time, for a given gas pressure and temperature of reaction.
- the pulp consistency is rather high, and at least about 2 percent, preferably is within the range from about 3 to about percent.
- the temperature is also rather high, within the range from about to about 70 C., and the treatment time is within the range from about 30 to about 300 minutes.
- These are conditions not usually employed in a chlorination step, but correspond instead to the conditions of a hypochlorite or chlorine dioxide treatment. It is therefore possible to refer to this bleaching and delignification stage of the invention as a substitute for a hypochlorite treatment stage, or for a chlorine dioxide treatment stage, in the usual bleaching process. However, it otherwise has little in common with these latter two stages, because it is a true delignification stage as well, whereas the others are primarily bleaching stages, and only complementarily considered as delignification stages.
- the proportion of chlorine dioxide in the chlorine-chlorine dioxide mixture can be within the range from about 2 to about 50 percent chlorine dioxide, preferably within the range from about ID to about 30 percent chlorine dioxide.
- the amount is calculated in terms of the amount of chlorine equivalent to the chlorine dioxide.
- the chlorine is employed as chlorine liquid or chlorine gas, and is added to an aqueous suspension of the pulp in any conventional way.
- Chlorine dioxide is also added as such, or can be formed in situ. Usually, it is preferably to prepare chlorine dioxide as and when required, and then add it directly to the aqueous pulp mixture. Chlorine and chlorine dioxide should preferably be mixed thoroughly before the addition thereof into the aqueous pulp mixture.
- This bleaching and delignification stage of the invention offers several advantages over prior treatments, among them a lower cost for the chemicals required, and a very much smaller risk of decomposition of the cellulose. It is possible because of the benefits of this bleaching and delignification stage of the invention to lower the cost for the chemicals required during bleaching, because of a reduction in the amounts of the chemicals, and a rearrangement of the order of the various treatment stages of the bleaching process, with an unchanged or even improved quality of the pulp, in consequence.
- An alkali extraction stage is interposed following the chlorine-chlorine dioxide treatment stage of the invention to remove the alkali soluble lignin derivatives and other alkalisoluble extractives formed in that stage.
- This alkali extraction can directly follow the Cl -ClO treatment, or be interposed at a later stage.
- the alkali extraction can be under the usual conditions, as shown in Table A. However, lower alkali concentrations can be used, since a large proportion of alkali-soluble extractives will have been removed in the first oxygen-alkali treatment, in which some extraction also takes place. Thus, the amount of alkali can be from 0.5 to 1.5 percent, and at such amounts the pH will be from 8 to 12.5 at the end of the extraction, as in the usual alkali extraction stage.
- the pulp consistency in this stage is within the usual range from about 4 to about 18 percent, the temperature within the usual range from about 25 to about 30 C., up to about 130 C. in a hot alkali refining stage, and the treatment time can range from several minutes to about five hours.
- the resulting pulp is more delignified, and has a better quality.
- the bleaching of the delignified pulp has been performed with less chemical consumption, and results in better quality of the final bleached pulp.
- Quality of the final bleached pulp is evaluated by the usual criteria: (1) brightness, SCAN before and after aging at elevated temperatures, (2) viscosity (which is determined for an aqueous copper ethylene diamine solution of the pulp according to SCAN Cl5z62, and which is a measurement of the mean polymerization degree of the cellulose, i.e., the chain length of the cellulose molecules), and (3) the extinction at 205 nm., i.e., ultraviolet light (which is determined for a solution of the pulp in phosphoric acid containing 5 mg. of pulp per ml. and is a measurement of the quantity of lignin remaining in the pulp).
- EXAMPLE 1 An unbleached cellulose pulp prepared from pine wood by the sulfate process, having a kappa number of 33.2 (the kappa number is a measurement of the lignin content of the pulp, and thus of its consumption of bleaching chemicals. The determination of kappa number is according to the standard in SCAN-C 1:59), a viscosity (SCAN) of 1,236 em /g. and a viscosity (TAPPl) 177 cp., was treated by the process of the invention.
- the pulp was treated in a peg shredder to obtain a fluffy pulp.
- This pulp was added to an autoclave, which was heated with direct steam to 100 C. the autoclave was connected to an oxygen tube, and the pressure adjusted to 8 kgJcm. After a reaction time of 15 minutes, the pulp was washed with water.
- the pulp at this stage had the following characteristics:
- the pulp was bleached according to the following schedule:
- the pulp was treated in a peg shredder to obtain a fluffy pulp.
- This pulp was enclosed in a pressure vessel which was heated with direct steam to C.
- the pressure vessel was connected to an air tube and the pressure adjusted to 4 kgJcm. After 30 minutes of reaction period, the pulp was washed with water.
- the washed pulp had the following analysis values:
- Stage C E D H Pulp consistency it 3 6 5 Time. hours 1 2 Z 4 Temperature. C. 85 70 55 Active chlorine. 2.6 0.8 0.4 NaOH 7: 3.5 Residual chlorine. 2 0.2 0.2
- a multistage pulp bleaching and delignification process comprising a first oxygen-alkali partial delignification stage carried out with oxygen in the presence of alkali under conditions such that delignification is incomplete, and then continuing delignification in a second or subsequent stage, with a mixture of chlorine and chlorine dioxide in accordance with claim 1.
- the initial oxygen partial pressure is at least about 1 atmosphere.
- hypochlorite is used in the alkaline treatment stage after the chlorine/chlorine dioxide stage.
