摘要 |
The invention relates to a process for the deresination of pulp as well as to the use of carbon dioxide or a (bi)carbonate compound for the deresination of pulp. The process concerns the removal of wood extractives or resin from an aqueous pulp suspension in an alkaline process stage of the pulping process, such as an oxygen delignification stage, at a pH above 10. Carbonate ions are provided in the pulp at the high pH for solubilizing a significant part of the wood extractives in the pulp. The alkaline pulp is dewatered to remove solubilized extractives and for providing a deresinated pulp.
