Leon Bashore Assistant Examiner-Arthur L. Corbin Att0rneyWaters, Roditi, Schwartz & Nissen ABSTRACT A method of delignifying and bleaching a chemical or semichemical cellulose pulp with oxygen gas in an alkaline medium, preferably sodium hydroxide, and in the presence of a protector, the method being characterized in that the protector is selected from the group consisting of silica; an alkali metal silicate, such as sodium silicate; an alkaline earth metal silicate, such as magnesium silicate; an alkaline earth metal phosphate, such as magnesium phosphate; an alkaline earth metal oxide, such as magnesium oxide; an alkaline earth metal peroxide; an alkaline earth metal hydroxide or a material forming an alkaline earth metal hydroxide, such as magnesium hydroxide or a material forming magnesium hydroxide in situ; and a soluble salt of magnesium other than magnesium carbonate.
10 Claims, No Drawings DELIGNIFICATION AND BLEACI-IING OF CELLULOSE PULP WITH OXYGEN GAS IN AN ALLSALINE MEDIUM IN THE PRESENCE OF A PROTECTOR This invention relates to the delignification and bleaching of chemical and semi-chemical cellulose pulp with oxygen gas in alkaline medium.
For the purposes of this specification, the term oxygen gas includes any other gas containing free oxygen, such as air.
It is known to delignify and bleach cellulose pulp with oxygen gas in an alkaline medium and excellent delignifying and bleaching effects are obtained if this treatment is carried out at elevated temperatures near 100 C and under elevated pressures of the order of 70 145 p.s.i.g. However, this conventional treatment suffers from the disadvantage that at such elevated temperatures and pressures, the physical and mechanical strength properties of the pulp are affected adversely.
In our French Patent Specification No. 1,387.853, we disclosed that by treating a chemical or semi-chemical pulp with oxygen in an alkaline medium in the presence of certain catalysts or protectors, the physical and mechanical strength properties of the pulp can be preserved, and in some cases even improved, while giving a very complete delignification and a significant increase in brightness. More particularly, we disclose a method for the delignification and bleaching of chemical and semi-chemical cellulose pulp with oxygen in an alkaline medium characterized in that the treatment of the pulp is effected in the presence of a protector used at a concentration from 0.5 to about 3 percent by weight on the pulp, selected from the group consisting of barium carbonate, calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, zinc carbonate, alkali metal borates and titanium dioxide.
It has now been found that the catalyst or protector may be selected from a new group. Many of these new protectors have the great advantage of more efiectively preserving the physical strength properties of cellulose pulps, and even of improving them in some cases, than certain of the known protectors, while giving a significant increase in brightness.
According to the present invention, the protector may be selected from the group consisting of silica; and alkaline metal silicate, such as sodium silicate; an alkaline earth metal silicate, such as magnesium silicate; an alkaline earth metal phosphate, such as magnesium phosphate; an alkaline earth metal oxide, such as magnesium oxide; an alkaline earth metal peroxide, such as magnesium peroxide; an alkaline earth metal hydroxide or a material forming an alkaline earth metal hydroxide, such as magnesium hydroxide or a material forming magnesium hydroxide in situ; and a soluble salt of magnesium, such as magnesium acetate or magnesium chloride.
Sodium silicate, magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide and magnesium silicate are particularly advantageous.
The new protectors give the best results when used at a concentration from 0.5 to about 3 percent preferably 1 percent, by weight of the pulp on a dry basis.
Any suitable alkaline medium may be used, preferably sodium hydroxide. The sodium hydroxide content may vary from 2 to 12 percent by weight on a dry pulp basis depending on the degree of delignification and bleaching that is required.
Generally speaking, the quantity of sodium hydroxide required may be increased for untreated pulps with a high lignin content.
The oxygen gas treatment is best carried out in any suitable pressure apparatus which will ensure intimate contact or adequate exposure of the pulp mass with or to oxygen in the gas phase.
During oxygen gas treatment, the pulp consistency may be in the range from 4 to 30 percent by weight, preferably 7 to 25 percent percent.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, an untreated alkaline pulp is treated with sodium hydroxide in the presence of the protector with oxygen gas in a pressure vessel at an elevated operating temperature, preferably between 90 and C, and at an elevated partial pressure at the maximum operating temperature, preferably in the range 70 to p.s.i.g. The pressure need only be limited by the characteristics of the apparatus used. The pulp may be subjected to the oxygen treatment at the maximum operating temperature for a period of time ranging from 10 to 120 minutes, depending on the results required or the nature of the pulp being treated.
After the oxygen treatment, the pulp may be washed in any suitable manner. The choice of the washing operation is largely governed by whether recovery of chemicals in the effluent or subsequent bleaching is contemplated. It is advantageous for the washing operation to be done carefully and for the effluent to be treated in a chemical recovery process. Further economies in recovery of this filtrate can be achieved if a portion of this filtrate is used for dilution of pulp which is to be oxygen gas treated. This has been found to have no deleterious efiects on the brightnesses obtained.
Such filtrate, or recirculated filtrate, may then, for example, be used as portion of the wash water used in the normal washing stages applied to the pulp as produced by the pulping process concerned, or may be added directly to the liquors at any stage in the recovery process concerned. Alternatively, the caustic soda in the filtrate may be recovered by any of the known methods of recovery. It is a big advantage of this process that despite the load of organic matter in these filtrates, they are substantially free of chlorides which are normally always present in bleach plant effluents, apart from any chloride that might be introduced when the protector contains the element chlorine. This enables the chemical recovery process to be conducted readily, without the serious interferences caused by chlorides, and allows, if necessary, any recovered sodium carbonate to be converted to caustic soda for repeated re-use. Even if, for instance, magnesium chloride is used as the protector, the amount of chlorides will still be considerably less than would be the case for conventional bleaching sequences. The very heavy pollution load caused by normal multistage bleaching operations will in this way be very beneficially reduced.
The following examples are illustrative of the invention without in any way limiting the scope thereof. The concentrations are given as percentages by weight on a dry pulp basis, except for sodium silicate, the amount of which is based on the solids content of the commercial product. The oxygen pressures are those pertaining at the temperature stated. Pulp consistency is the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the weight of the dry pulp to the weight of the wet pulp. All tests for the examples were carried out in accordance with TAPPI or AFNOR specifications.
EXAMPLE I The lignin content, the brightness and the physical strength prpperties of the following pulps are compared in Table l e ow:
a. untreated, unbleached, resinous Kraft pulp (hereinafter referred to as Pulp A).
b. the pulp of (a) above after oxygen gas treatment in an alkaline medium without a protector (hereinafter referred to as Pulp B) c. the pulp of (a) above after oxygen gas treatment in an alkaline medium in the presence of magnesium carbonate which is the preferred protector disclosed in our French Patent Specification No. 1,387,853, (hereinafter referred to as Pulp C).
d. different batches of the pulp of (a) above after oxygen gas treatment in alkaline medium in the presence of different protectors according to the present invention (hereinafter referred to as Pulps D.,E.F. and G respectively.)
It will be seen that Pulps D,E,F and G which have been treated in the presence'of protectors according to the present invention, have higher brightnesses than pulps AB and C. It
will also be seen in relation to pulps D,E,F and G that the protectors according to the present invention effectively preserve the physical strength properties of the pulp and even improve them in certain respects.
We claim:
