    Modified Polysulphide (Aq) Pulping Of Softwood
    (1997) Minja, Rwaichi J. A.; Kleppe, Peder J.; Karlsen, Trond
    A review of the polysulphide (PS) liquor generation methods has been made. By preparing some PS liquors which simulate future possibilities, pilot scale PS-(AQ) pulping studies were conducted. The studies were carried out in a recently acquired pilot plant which can simulate both conventional cooking techniques as well as the latest pulping developments. Two types of pulps were made, type 1 were liner board grade pulps and type 2 were bleachable grade pulps. Type 1 pulps were made by using up to 20% green PS-liquor in conventional PS-AQ pulping. Type 2 pulps were made by adding all PS in the impregnation stage of ITC simulated cooks and applying either NaOH (Soda liquor) or kraft liquor (WL) as the major alkali source.
