| 摘要 |
Sodium sulphate and/or sodium carbonate containing material from a cellulose pulp mill, such as fly ash from a recovery boiler, or a by-product from a chlorine dioxide production plant, is brought into contact with a a gas containing hydrocarbons and/or hydrogen sulphide which chemically reacts with the material to produce sodium sulphide. Preferably the gas contains one or both of ethene and hydrogen sulphide. The sodium sulphide produced is used to effect sulphate cooking of cellulose pulp. The gas may be brought into contact with the melt of a soda recovery boiler to increase its sulphidity, either prior to, after, or simultaneously with bringing the gas into contact with the material. The sources of the fly ash and melt may be a soda recovery boiler combusting black liquor under oxidizing conditions. |
