Definitions
- This invention relates to a novel method for the recover and recycle of the substances, energy, chemicals and water from the effluents of delignification and bleaching processes in a pulp mill.
- the invention relates to a novel method for organizing in a sequence biological, chemical and physical processes which are in part known in the art.
- the invention will be named hereafter as Anaox process which is a short form for "ANAEROBIC and wet “OXIDATION" the two main technologies on which the present invention is based.
- the invention intends to provide the pulp and paper industry with a novel method for the setup of a pulp mill of a small and medium capacity in order to process economically and with an environmental acceptable impact fast growing cellulosic materials which are required to support the fast growing demand of paper in the whole area lacking of forest and trees plantations.
- the pulping technology to separate the cellulose from other organic compounds makes use of an association of chemicals which most frequently is formed by NaOH + Na 2 S which characterizes the kraft process. Sulphite and disulphite characterizing the acid process are used in a minor degree.
- the soda process For open structured raw material like straw and annual fiber the soda process, associated with anthraquinone or with 0 2 as in the most advanced technologies, is used.
- the kraft and soda process produce pulp which requires long bleaching sequences based, in the past, on chlorine and chlorine compounds which, because of the high toxicity of the resulting organic chlorinated material have been substituted by 0 2 , 0 3 and H 2 O 2 in a multistage treatment.
- the NaOH + O 2 process according to the present invention which is used for the open structured materials as agricultural residues and annual fiber, produces easily bleachable pulps using chlorine free sequences.
- the delignification process should be completed by a weak black liquor (W.B.L.) recovery which should adapt to the peculiarities of a low heat value and high content of NPE frequently containing high percentage of SiO 2 and Cl " .
- W.B.L. weak black liquor
- One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a recovery and recycling process for chemicals, energy and water from the W.B.L. and bleaching effluent of a NaOH + O 2 chlorine free process, in order to install profitable and environmental acceptable mills also of small and medium capacities for pulping agricultural residues, annual fiber and fast growing cellulosic materials.
- a second object of the present invention is to minimize the pollution caused by the kappa reduction and bleaching sequence of the standard size wood based mills, minimizing the difficulties in water recycling which relate to the presence of organic salts (oxalate, acetate, etc.).
- a further object of the present invention is to facilitate the effluent treatment and water recycling in the high yield pulping processes (TMP, CTMP, semi-chemical and secondary fiber pulp) in which the organic materials in the effluent are present in a low concentration which cannot justify investment in conventional recovery.
- the process according to the present invention is characterized in that it comprises the steps of: a) causing the black liquor resulting from a delignification process to undergo one or more anaerobic treatments in order to produce biogas from the organic substance to be used as an energy source and to convert, by such methanation, the sodium salts of the organic acids into Na 2 CO 3 , b) evaporating the liquor resulting from the anaerobic treatment in order to recover water condensate and concentrate the liquor, c) causing the concentrated black liquor to undergo an oxidation treatment in order to destroy the organic compounds with CO 2 production and recover chemicals, heat and water, d) recovering the alkaline sodium salts by means of different solubility, e) causing the separated alkalis to undergo a decarbonation in order to transform them in carbonates; and f) recausticizing part of carbonates in sodium hydroxide, a reactant contained in the liquor of the delignification.
- the concentrated effluent from the evaporation of the water recovery system from the kappa reduction and bleaching stage is added to the W.B.L. of the delignification step.
- the biogas from the anaerobic treatment is conveyed to the power generation plant to cover the process power requirement.
- the condensate from step b) of the process - clean water - is recycled to the process.
- Further features of the present invention are the following: i) the CO 2 developed in the wet oxidation step and in the decarbonation step is recycled to adjust, specifically lower, the pH of the W.B.L. to the anaerobic treatment and the water recovered from the wet oxidation is recycled to the pulping line, ii) the NaOH from recausticizing, in the ratio required by the process, is recycled to the delignification step.
- Fig. 1 The invention in its complete structure is shown in the block diagram of Fig. 1 which is divided in sections from 1/a to 1/e; each section relating to the single process and treatment steps, their interconnection and their sequence in the process.
- Section 1/a shows the pre-treatment and delignification step which in different form are part of any conventional pulping process.
- the non cellulosic components of the raw material lignin, hemicellulose, inorganic components
- yields ratio between pulp and raw material on BD basis
- the higher yield characterizes pulp like GW, TMP, CTMP mainly used for newsprint production, while the pulps with lower yield are bleached pulp for printing and writing paper, or more sophisticated paper as security banknotes.
- the lowest yield pulps are classified as "dissolving pulp” which by different physical and chemical processes (acetilation, nitration, viscose) produces chemicals, films and yarns for the textile industry.
- the non cellulose components in the raw material are dissolved in the W.B.L. which will have different concentration according to the different process conditions and yields. These liquors are normally concentrated in strong black liquor for their consequent processing.
- an agricultural residue (block 10) is pretreated with water and weak caustic liquor (block 1 1 ) to minimize its SiO 2 and Cf contamination before being delignified (block 12).
- the alkali/O 2 process the alkali is mainly sodium carbonate recovered and recycled (line L1 ) from the decarbonation step.
- the loss of chemicals in the recovery cycle is integrated by NaOH make up (line L2).
- the process is optimised by the choice of a proper ratio NaOH/Na 2 CO 3 to guarantee the OH ion concentration required to catalyse the lignin decomposition.
- the alkali is the main agent in lignin solubilization, while the O 2 causes the:
- the modification of the lignin in biodegradable substance is relevant for the total process efficiency. Specifically, the efficiency of the anaerobic treatment of the W.B.L. from the alkali/O 2 delignification and from kappa reduction becomes significantly higher than that obtained processing kraft/soda liquors.
- the unbleached pulp from the delignification step is separated from the liquor by filtration and washed in a multistep brown stock washing system (block 13) and then transferred (line L3) to the kappa reduction and bleaching step (block 14 and line L14). From the effluents of the bleaching step the water is recovered by evaporation (block 15) and recycled to the process (line L11). In the section 1/b the weak liquor from delignification step (block 16) and the concentrated effluent from the kappa reduction and bleaching step based on 0 2 , O 3 in a mild alkali medium, are fed to the anaerobic step.
- the energy for the anaerobic micro organisms is supplied by the organic substance degradation in reduced atmosphere free from O 2 .
- the biogas (prevailing CH + CO 2 ) is produced by the modification of biodegradable liquor components.
- the W.B.L. from the delignification step which has a high organic content normally evaluated as "chemical oxygen demand" COD, in one of the preferred but not exclusive application of the invention, is mixed (line L4) with the concentrated residues from the evaporation of the kappa reduction and bleaching effluent, having lower COD.
- the ratio of this mixture is adjusted to obtain COD, temperature and pH of the mixed effluent to guarantee the best efficiency of the anaerobic step.
- the anaerobic treatment is frequently used as the first step of an effluent treatment because of its capability to transform 60-70% of organic components into biogas with minimum of bio sludges production (line L6).
- the anaerobic treatment (section 1/b block 19) is of decisive importance in the process according to the present invention because, together with the above mentioned effect, it has the capability to convert, as an additional result of methanation, organic sodium salts (acetate, oxalate, formate, etc.) into inorganic sodium carbonates.
- Sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide are the alkali for the solubilization of the non cellulosic components, in combination with 0 2 in the most advanced technologies.
- the degradation, due to the O 2 , of part of the lignin present in the black liquor in biodegradable compound is essential for optimising the efficiency of the methanation (COD reduction) in the anaerobic step which may reach 80 ⁇ 85% compared to 60 ⁇ 70% characterizing the treatment of the liquor (from soda and kraft process) in which the lignin is not partially degraded.
- the biogas production (energy recovery) is also improved, since it is proportional to the COD reduction. About 400 Nmc of biogas are originated from each ton of destroyed
- the high efficiency in anaerobic treatment which characterizes the invention, can be seen in that the heat recovery in biogas is characterized by a content of 65 ⁇ 70% of methane.
- the biogas is converted into electric power (line L7) by a special diesel generator designed for this type of gas (block 20).
- the section 1/c relates to the evaporation (block 21) of the weak liquor with reduced ODS after the anaerobic step (block 19) in order to enter the proceeding wet oxidation process (section 1/d).
- a weak black liquor from the delignification (block 12) with 10% TDS will be reduced to 8% TDS by mixing with the concentrated effluent from the kappa reduction and bleaching step (block 14) in a ratio of
- the anaerobic treatment transforming in biogas the 85% of the organic substance, will reduce the 4% ODS of the incoming W.B.L. to 0,6% ODS in the liquor after the anaerobic step.
- the evaporation step (block 21) of the liquor with the 0,6% ODS content is intended to increase the ODS% to the minimum organic content 2,5 ⁇ 3% for self supporting the oxidative reaction.
- the low concentration level of the liquor in the described process will guarantee a condensate from the evaporation step with a negligible contamination by organic substances, much lower than that of the condensate of the conventional recovery process which requires a liquor concentration up to 60 ⁇ 65%.
- the section 1/d relates to the wet oxidation step (block 22).
- the liquor at 12 ⁇ 15% TDS is fed to the reactor together with the oxygen in a ratio 1 :1 to the liquor COD. Up to 99,5% of the incoming organic substances is oxidised (burnt) in this process step.
- the heat from the oxidative reaction is in excess over the demand for the liquor preheating and for reaching and maintaining the process temperature at 320°C.
- the mentioned excess of heat is used to produce steam at a pressure of 10 bar and recycled to the process (line L9).
- the reduction (80 ⁇ 85%) of the COD in the W.B.L. by the anaerobic treatment reduces the O 2 required by the wet oxidation to only 15 ⁇ 20% of the O 2 consumption to oxidize the total ODS of the W.B.L. from the delignification step.
- the O 2 required for the delignification step (block 12), for the kappa reduction and bleaching step (block 14) and for wet oxidation step of the recovery system (block 22) can be economically produced in the pulp mill by means of the molecular sieve technology. It should be emphasized that a pulp mill based on alkali/O 2 delignification may depend for its chemicals from the external sources only for the alkali make-up.
- the salts due to the conversion operated by the anaerobic treatment, will be substantially sodium bicarbonates which may be contaminated by a low percentage of NPE mainly sodium chloride (Cl ⁇ ) and silica (SiO 2 ) present in many of the agricultural residues. Most of the contaminants are washed out in the wet pretreatment system which is normally included in the design of a new mill. In the case of wheat straw, the amount of 6 ⁇ 10 g of Cl " and 4 ⁇ 6 g of Si0 2 per kg BD of straw will be respectively reduced by 90% and 50 ⁇ 60% in the wet pretreatment.
- the residual quantity will be present in the weak black liquor from delignification and will be transferred in the bicarbonate/carbonate recovered solution. Their building up over the amount which can be tolerated by the process can only be controlled by taking care of their excess.
- the sodium salts (block 22) can be recycled as sodium carbonate (line L1), after the separation from the contaminants (block 23). Its recausticizing (block 25) may be limited to the only quantity which should be recycled (line L2) as hydroxide for kappa reduction and bleaching step (block 14) .
- the mills of limited capacities can be more easily positioned on the territory facilitating the harvesting collection and transport of the agricultural residues and annual plant characterised by low bulk weight;
