A process for delignifying bleaching cellulose pulp in three stages, an activating stage, and first and second alkaline stages, NO and/or NO2 and O2, and optionally HNO3, being supplied to the water-containing pulp in the activating stage; in the first alkaline stage, alkali being supplied as carbonate, primarily HCO3-, with oxygen gas having a partial pressure, on average, of from 0 to 0.2 MPa, the lignin content of the pulp being lowered in this stage so that the Kappa number of the pulp after the stage is from 10 to 60% of the Kappa number of the pulp entering the activating stage; in the second alkaline stage, alkali being supplied as carbonate, primarily CO3=, with oxygen gas at a partial pressure, on average, of from 0.1 to 3 MPa.
