摘要:
In some embodiments, a method may include treating pulp. The method may include contacting a wood pulp with a singlet oxygen source. The method may include contacting the wood pulp with an alkaline peroxide source. The singlet oxygen source may include a peracetate oxidant solution and generating a reactive oxygen species. The peracetate oxidant solution may include peracetate anions and a peracid. In some embodiments, the peracetate solution may include a pH from about pH 10 to about pH 12. In some embodiments, the peracetate solution has a molar ratio of peracetate anions to peracid ranging from about 60:1 to about 6000:1. In some embodiments, the peracetate solution has a molar ratio of peracetate to hydrogen peroxide of greater than about 16:1. The peracetate oxidant solution may provide enhanced treatment methods of bleaching, brightening, and delignifying pulp fibers involving the use of peracetate oxidant solutions.
摘要:
The invention is directed towards methods and compositions for processes based on the combination of organic peroxyacids and ammonium salts that preserve and enhance the response to optical brighteners (fluorescent whitening dyes), brightness and improve color of pulp or paper when applied during different stages of the papermaking process are identified. The composition and method improve response to optical brighteners (fluorescent whitening dyes), maintain and/or enhance brightness and enhance the performance of paper products. Used in combination with optical brighteners the described agents produce a synergistic effect not previously identified in the paper process.
摘要:
A process for the bleaching of chemical pulp, wherein the initial bleaching of the pulp includes a first chlorine dioxide treatment (D0) and a following alkaline treatment with oxygen and hydrogen peroxide (EOP), which stages are separated from each other with a washing stage, and a treatment of the pulp to reduce the content of transition metals of the pulp prior to the peroxide treatment. The process is characterized in that alkali is added to the pulp after addition of chlorine dioxide in the D0 stage to adjust the pH of the pulp to neutral or basic (N stage) prior to the washing stage following the chlorine dioxide stage, whereby the initial bleaching includes the sequence D0N EOP.
摘要:
A process for improving optical properties of high-yield pulp (HYP) for producing paper products with superior brightness. Optical brightening agents (OBAs) can effectively improve the optical properties of high-yield pulp (HYP). The present process involves incorporating the OBAs into the alkaline peroxide bleaching process. By combining peroxide bleaching with an optical brightening agent, one can decrease the bleaching cost to reach the same brightness target. Some key advantages of adding OBA to HYP at the pulp mill over the conventional wet-end addition of OBA include: i) the quenching effect on OBA by the wet-end cationic polymers such as PEI is decreased by fixing OBA on HYP fibers; ii) the negative impact of metal ions in the white water system on the OBA performance is minimized when OBA is pre-adsorbed and fixed on HYP fibers; iii) the photo-yellowing (color reversion) of HYP and HYP-containing paper sheets is decreased when more OBA is on HYP fibers to protect them from harmful UV radiation.

The composition and method maintains and/or enhances brightness, prevent yellowing, and enhances the performance of paper products. Used in combination with optical brighteners and/or chelants the described agents produce a synergistic effect not previously identified in the paper process.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for the bleaching of paper pulp with one or more peroxide oxidizing agents, in which the pulp is first treated in a pretreatment step with at least one inorganic magnesium derivative combined with at least one carboxylic acid or its salt, except its magnesium salt, or with at least one carboxylic acid at least partially saponified with Mg2+, the carboxylic acid being substituted by at least one electrodonating group or comprising at least one carbon-carbon double bond.
摘要:
A process for the bleaching of chemical pulp, comprising a first chlorine dioxide treatment (D) of the initial bleaching and chelation (Q) to be carried out in connection therewith, forming together a DQ treatment. The process is characterized in that the chelation is carried out at the pH of from 2 to 7, and it is followed by an alkalizing stage (N) of the pulp, without intermediate washing for raising the pH of the pulp to above 7 and at most to 12 prior to a following stage which is a washing step.
摘要:
The invention provides a composition of matter and a method, which enhance the process of mechanically pulping paper precursors. The composition of matter includes a small quantity of a reducing agent and a source of alkali. When added to the pulped material, e.g., wood chips, before or during mechanical pulping, the composition reduces the energy cost of the operation. In addition, not only does the composition also does not reduce the brightness of pulp, the composition can also enhance the effectiveness of subsequent bleaching processes.
