摘要

A method and a liquor filter, in which liquor filter sealing medium is fed via a sealing medium channel (3) into an innermost sealing zone formed by an innermost sealing member (1), an outer seal (2) and the space between them at a causticizing plant of a chemical pulp mill. The sealing medium used is an alkaline sealing liquid and/or gas, which does not substantially dilute the liquor being filtered. Advantageously the sealing medium is filtrate from the liquor filter and/or gas taken from the interior of the liquor filter.
