SIMULATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF TIMBER ALKALINE PULPING PROCESS IN PRESENCE OF SALTS OF SOME METALS HAVING MIXED VALENCE

Abstract

Process of alkaline pulping in the presence of salts of some metals having mixed valence has been simulated on the basis of the executed investigations. The paper reveals that optimization of alkaline (sulphate) pulping depends on chemical nature and metal and its amount which is introduced in the form of salt.
