A PROCESS FOR STABILIZING THE PH OF A PULP SUSPENSION AND FOR PRODUCING PAPER FROM THE STABILIZED PULP

摘要

The invention relates to a process for stabilizing the pH of a pulp suspensionwith buffering agents and to a process for producingpaper from a stabilized pulp suspension. The alkalinity of the pulp suspensionis increased by a combination of an alkali metal hydroxidefeed and a carbon dioxide feed. Said feeds provide a significant bufferingeffect which stablilizes the pH of said pulp suspension for thepaper making process.
