Definitions
- an object of the present invention to provide a commercial low cost continuous process for the delignication and bleaching of wood pulp.
- FIG. 1 is a ow diagram illustrating one embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a flow diagram illustrating another embodiment of the present invention.
- lFIG. 3 is a graph in which viscosity of the bleached pulp is plotted versus its Kappa No. where pressure is held constant throughout delignification and bleaching with oxygen as against gradually reducing the pressure during the delignification and bleaching with oxygen, as in the present invention.
- the aqueous bleaching solution can be readily regenerated by adding additional sodium hydroxide or other alkaline agent and recycled. Consequently, unconsumed reagents are reused in this continuous process and ecological contamination is eliminated.
- an alkaline aqueous pulp of low consistency such as less than about by Weight of wood pulp, preferably between about 2 to 6%, and most desirably between about 3 and 4%, is employed.
- Sufficient alkali is introduced to elevate the pH of the pulp to between about 9 and 14, and preferably between about 11.5 and 12.5.
- sodium hydroxide it is usually desirable that about 1 to 10 grams per liter are employed, or to constitute between about 0.1% and 1.0% by weight of the pulp slurry.
- the alkaline pulp is desirably mixed with oxygen in a high-shear mixing device so that no large bubbles exceeding about 1/16 of an inch in diameter are present.
- substantially no undissolved oxygen gas is present in the pulp.
- oxygen is introduced in an amount of between about 0.1 and 4% by weight of aqueous pulp, with amounts of about 0.2 to 0.8% being preferred for softwood, and between about 0.2 and 0.4% by weight giving best results for hardwood pulp.
- Any undissolved bubbles of oxygen of substantial size are to be avoided, since they cause channeling to disrupt the upward flow of pulp through the bleaching tower, thereby causing non-uniform bleaching, which is highly undesirable. Also larger bubbles tend to agglomerate and this is to be avoided. Any undissolved bubbles should be so nely dispersed as to avoid any substantial agglomeration.
- Any undissolved oxygen such as bubbles exceeding about V16 inch in diameter, are vented from the system before the oxygenated pulp is introduced into the bleaching tower.
- the distribution of oxygen through the pulp is desirably achieved through any high-speed, high-shear mixing device or gas absorber.
- any high-shear mixing device or gas absorber are the Lightening In-line mixer or Line-Blender of Mixing Equipment Co. Inc.
- any high-shear mixer may be employed.
- the alkaline aqueous pulp may be briefly subjected to a high pressure oxygen pretreatment before introducing the pulp into the bleaching tower.
- a high pressure oxygen pretreatment of up to 300 p.s.i.g., or preferably 2 to 10 atmospheres, are desirable. This pretreatment is done briefly in small volume pressure apparatus which does not add substantially to the cost of the apparatus employed.
- reaction temperature of the aqueous pulp be about 70 to 120 C., with about 90 to 110 C. preferred.
- reaction temperatures substantially in excess of 100 C. are employed, some means of providing pressure are required.
- maximum reaction temperatures to be employed will be somewhat dependent on the height of the bleaching tower or initial pressure employed. Desirably the temperature should not exceed the boiling point of the pulp slurry at the pressure involved.
- the pressure on the aqueous alkaline pulp is gradually reduced by a diferential of at least about one atmosphere, with a maximum differential being about 10 atmospheres.
- This differential in pressure during the bleaching operation may be represented by the height of the bleaching tower, although any means for gradually and constantly reducing the pressure during treatment may be employed.
- a 300 foot bleaching tower provides an initial pressure of about 135 p.s.i.g. and a 40 foot bleaching tower provides an initial pressure of about 17 p.s.i.g. It is desirable that a bleaching tower be employed which is not higher than about 300 feet with the minimum height being about 40 feet.
- the residence time of the aqueous pulp in the bleaching tower may vary depending upon the pressure on the system and on the degree of bleaching required for the particular pulp employed. Some pulps require more drastic bleaching treatment than others, Generally speaking, from about 5 to 120 minutes is suflicient. With a higher initial pressure provided by a higher tower, the time can be reduced to a period of from about 1 minute to 60 minutes. With a 40 foot tower, providing a pressure differential of roughly about one atmosphere, about 30 to 60 minutes, preferably about 40 minutes is satisfactory.
- the bleaching tower 8 may be one of the pre-existing towers which have been conventional in the paper industry for ybleaching by chlorination. These towers are relatively inexpensive since they require no high pressure specifications and are therefore easily constructed.
- a pulp slurry of the desired consistency is produced by mixing in make-up tank 1 sufficient pulp, sodium hydroxide or other alkaline agent, such as ammonia, sodium carbonate, etc., and desirably, recycled bleach liquor transferred from stream 2. This recycled liquor is introduced so as to economically reuse the alkaline values of the bleach liquor.
- Pump 3 carries the alkaline pulp of desired consistency into oxygenator or mixer 4, which is a chamber having a high-speed, high-shear mixing device, such as a Lightnin Mixer, to incorporate and disperse oxygen into the alkaline pulp.
- oxygen can rst be mixed with the warm alkaline spent liquor stream 2 as shown at 2a in FIG. 1 and recovered at the make-up tank.
- the oxygenated pulp is then carried to heat exchanger 5 where steam is employed to elevate the temperature to the desired value.
- the heated alkaline oxygenated pulp is then optionally subjected momentarily to a pre-pressurizing chamber 6 where the pressure is momentarily elevated in that chamber, using oxygen, for a brief period of time. Any undissolved, undispersed oxygen is then removed from the liquid by vent 7 and thereafter the vented oxygenated alkaline pulp is introduced into the bottom of bleaching tower 8.
- the flow of the alkaline oxygenated pulp is upward through the tower, as shown, with suflicient retention time to permit the desired bleaching and delignification to take place. Agitation of the pulp slurry in the tower is to be avoided.
- the initial pressure and differential in pressure during the bleaching treatment is determined by the height of the tower 8.
- the effluent from the tower is then carried though pipe 9 to washer 10.
- the residual warm alkaline liquor recovered at the first washer is collected in container 11 and part of it is returned through pipe 2 to pulp make-up tank 1. Another part is returned to washer 10.
- the pulp from washer 10 is then carried through conduit 13 to second washer 14 where wash water is applied and the washed pulp is then carried to succeeding stages of bleaching, such as represented by chlorine dioxide treatments.
- the effluent is collected in container 15 from which a portion is used for brown stock washing and the remainder carried through conduit 16 .to be used in washing the pulp in iirst washer 10.
- FIG. 2 differs from that of FIG. 1 in that the pre-pressurizing chamber 6 of FIG. 1 is eliminated.
- the oxygenator 4 of FIG. 2 has an in-line Lightnin Mixer or other high-shear mixer having the facility of readily dispersing oxygen throughout the pulp.
- FIG. 3 represents a graph plotting the pulp viscosity versus the Kappa Nos. for two runs, one of which employed constantly decreasing pressure during bleaching in accordance with the present invention (represented by the circled points) (representing a decline of pressure from 40 p.s.i.g. to zero p.s.i.g.) compared with constant pressure (represented by points encompassed by squares) in which the pressure was maintained constantly at 40 p.s.i.g. As shown in FIG. 3, the two curves are represented by straight lines.
- Viscosity represents a measurement of the average degree of polymerization of the cellulose in the pulp sample, i.e., the average chain length of the cellulose.
- decreases in viscosity values represent the extent of depolymerization or degradation caused by the bleaching process. Excessive degradation is to be avoided since it provides undesirable physical properties in any paper made from t-he pulp.
- Kappa No. is determined by the potassium permanganate consumed by a sample of pulp and represents a measurement of its retained lignin content. The higher the Kappa No., the less bleached and delignitied is the pulp. By comparing Kappa Nos. of samples before and after bleaching treatment, one can obtain an evaluation of the extent of delignication which has taken place.
- the present invention employing gradual reduction in pressure during bleaching and delignification, produces less pulp shrinkage for the same degree of bleaching and delignilication than does oxygen bleaching conducted at constant pressure. This means that there is less damage to the cellulose and hemicellulose as represented by reduced loss of bleached pulp. This is a consequence of the fact that the process of the present invention is more selective in lignin removal than is oxygen bleaching conducted at constant pressure. As a consequence, the process of the present invention is more economical than a similar process conducted at constant pressure.
- Example 1 Employing apparatus illusrtaated by FIG. 1 of the appended drawing, except that no high pressure pre-retention chamber 6 was employed, several pulp slurries having a consistency of 2 or 3% by weight of pulp, in which the pulp was slurried using 0.1 normal sodium hydroxide, were subjected to the process of the invention.
- the pulp slurry was heated to boiling.
- Oxygen gas was mixed with the heated slurry and pressurized to 40 p.s.i.g. and vigorosuly agitated in the oxygenator 4, equipped with a highshear propeller, during a residence time of about 5 minutes.
- Example 2 Employing the apparatus system of FIG. 2, wood pulp was slurried with 0.1N sodium hydroxide to a pH of 11.5 and a consistency of approximately 3% and the slurry heated to a temperature of about C.
- Oxygen was mixed through oxygenator 4 equipped with Lightening -In-line propeller-equipped mixer Model No. 4LB ⁇ C operating at a velocity of 1700 r.p.m. to finely divide the oxygen in the slurried pulp. Residual undispersed and undissolved oxygen was vented at vent 7.
- the oxygenated alkaline pulp was then introduced near the bottom of bleaching tower 8, comprising a tower 84 feet tall providing a static pressure at the bottom of approximately 36 p.s.i.g.
- the slurry was permitted to ow slowly upward through the tower without any agitation to provide a retention time of approximately 42 minutes. Throughout the operation no bubbles of oxygen were seen to escape at the top of the slurry.
- Table 2 The results are shown in Table 2 below:
- Example 3 Apparatus illustrated by FIG. l of the appended drawings, both with and without the use of the chamber 6, was employed.
- the pulp slurry was heated to boiling at atmospheric pressure.
- Oxygen gas was mixed with the heated slurry and pressurized to 40 p.s.i.g. and vigorously agitated in the oxygenator 4, equipped with a high-shear propellar, during a residence time of about 5 minutes.
- the slurry was subjected to a pressure of oxygen of about 100 p.s.i.g. for a short time of one minute to 30 minutes. Excess undissolved and undispersed oxygen was vented through the vent 7.
- the oxygenated pulp slurry was then introduced into bleaching tower 8 which was approximately 90 to feet high.
- the slurry was permitted to rise lWithout agitation so that it had a residence time in the tower of approximately 60 minutes.
- the pressure head on the slurry decreased from 7 about 40 p.s.i.g. to atmospheric. No bubbles of oxygen were seen to rise out of the top of the slurry in the tower. No depolymerization protector was employed. The results are shown in Table 3 below:
- Example 4 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated, employing a pulp slurry consistency of 3% by weight of pulp using two samples of hardwood kraft pulp and softwood kraft pulp, The results obtained are set forth in Table 4 below:
- Oxygen bleached Hardwood kraft
