摘要

Hardwood pulp rejects at a given Kappa number can be reduced by subjecting the hardwood pulp to specified cooking conditions at the end of cooking. In this regard, it has been discovered that s-lignin reacts faster than g-lignin and that there exists a higher proportion of g-lignin at the end of a hardwood cook as compared to the g-lignin present at the beginning of the cook. Thus, when cooking hardwoods, relatively harsher cooking conditions (e.g., higher cooking temperatures) at the end of the cooking have been discovered to decrease the g-lignin content which in turn decreases the percentage of pulp rejects at a given Kappa number. In preferred embodiments, methods and systems are provided for continuously producing chemical cellulose pulp from a slurry of comminuted hardwood material by subjecting the slurry of comminuted hardwood material to a first cooking stage under conditions sufficient to reduce syringyl lignin (s-lignin) content in the hardwood material as compared to guaiacyl lignin (g-lignin) content therein, and thereafter subjecting the slurry of comminuted hardwood material to a second cooking stage under conditions sufficient to reduce the g-lignin content remaining therein after the first cooking stage.
