Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of high-purity bleached fiber production and preparation technology, and in particular to a method for preparing high-purity bleached fiber using agricultural and forestry "three residues". Background Technology
[0002] Due to factors such as the shortage of hardwood resources and unstable raw material quality, traditional bleached hardwood pulp cannot meet the production requirements of high-purity specialty paper, exhibiting problems such as poor fiber uniformity, high resin content, and unstable whiteness. Because hardwood fiber has high yield and low cost, alternative hardwood resources need to be sought to meet market demands for high-purity bleached hardwood pulp and Lyocell. Agricultural and forestry "three residues" mainly refer to logging residues, timber processing residues, and processing residues. my country has abundant agricultural and forestry "three residues" resources, but their utilization rate is low, with most being discarded or incinerated, failing to be effectively transformed into high-value-added products. Existing technologies cannot fully process the complex components in agricultural and forestry "three residues," resulting in low pulp yield and high impurity content, limiting their application in high-purity bleached hardwood pulp. How to overcome the technological bottleneck of efficient utilization of agricultural and forestry "three residues" through process innovation and achieve large-scale production of high-yield, low-impurity high-purity bleached hardwood pulp has become a core issue that urgently needs to be addressed. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a method for preparing high-purity bleached pulp using agricultural and forestry "three residues". This method involves analyzing the physical properties and optimizing the chemical composition of logging residues, timber processing residues, and processing residues to develop an efficient pulp screening, oxygen desulfurization, and multi-stage bleaching process, which significantly improves the whiteness and purity of the pulp.
[0004] The technical solution provided by this invention is as follows: A method for preparing high-purity bleaching agents using agricultural and forestry residues includes the following steps: S1. Raw material screening: Select the "three residues" that meet the requirements; S2, Chipping: After peeling, chipping, and screening, the remaining materials that meet the requirements are directly stacked according to the tree species of the remaining materials. When producing high-purity bleached wood, the materials can be directly taken from the corresponding piles, ensuring the stability of the raw material characteristics and thus ensuring the continuity of product quality. S3. Washing: The sheet is washed with water or air-separated to remove foreign matter and wood chips from the sheet; S4. Cooking: The hemicellulose and lignin in the sheet are removed by vapor-phase pre-hydrolysis sulfate cooking. S5. Screening: Screen the pulp using a 0.15-0.25mm slotted screen and collect it using a mesh bag with a mesh size of not less than 350-500. The purpose of screening is to remove pulp agglomerates and pulp residue from the cooked pulp, leaving pulp for subsequent oxygen desulfurization and bleaching. S6, Oxygen De-alkali: A certain amount of oxygen de-alkali is added to the collected material to carry out the oxygen de-alkali reaction; S7. Bleaching: Bleaching the material obtained after the oxygen desulfurization reaction; S8. Forming and Whiteness / Fiber Residue Detection: The bleached material is formed into sheets (subsequent analysis uses a sheet forming device to obtain a quantitative sample of 200g / m³). 2 ±25 samples were dried at a low temperature of 40-60℃. The whiteness and fiber content of the dried material were tested. The product with a whiteness of 90% ISO or higher and a fiber content of 90% or higher was the final product.

[0010] Preferably, in step S4, the kappa value at the end of the cooking process is controlled to be between 16 and 18, and the viscosity is maintained at 800 ml / g ± 30.
[0011] Preferably, in step S6, the oxygen dealkalization is performed using NaOH, and the amount of oxygen dealkalization accounts for 3.0 to 4.0% of the total mass of the material.
[0012] Preferably, in step S6, the oxygen removal reaction is carried out at a temperature of 95–105°C, a pressure of 0.65 ± 0.5 MPa, and a time of 60 ± 5 min, resulting in a viscosity reduction to 600 ± 30 ml / g after oxygen removal.
[0013] Preferably, step S7 employs a three-stage bleaching process: D0→EOP→D1. D0: ClO2 dosage 7-8 kg / ton, time 25-30 min, pH 1.5-2.5, temperature 80-90℃; EOP: Control the amount of H2O2 to 8-12 kg / ton, the time to 80-100 min, control the amount of NaOH to make the pH 11.8-12.8, the bleaching temperature to 85-90℃, and ensure the viscosity to be 530±30.

[0014] Preferably, in step S8, the ash content of the product is less than 0.1%, the iron content in the product is less than 10 ppm, and the viscosity of the product is 500 ± 30 ml / g.
[0015] The present invention has the following advantages over the prior art: This invention utilizes agricultural and forestry byproducts as raw materials for producing high-purity bleached hardwood pulp. It fully leverages existing logging, timber processing, and finishing waste to produce high-purity bleached hardwood pulp, thus solving the problem of raw material availability for enterprise production.

[0039] Compared with existing technologies, the method in this embodiment uses agricultural and forestry "residues" as raw materials for preparing high-purity bleached hardwood pulp. This fully utilizes existing logging, timber processing, and finishing waste to produce high-purity bleached hardwood pulp, solving the problem of timber raw material needs for enterprise production. The raw material pretreatment stage employs a three-stage screening process (first layer Φ40mm, second layer Φ20mm, third layer Φ5.0mm), significantly improving the size qualification rate of the raw materials entering the cooking pot and ensuring uniform cooking. Through optimized process parameters and the use of deionized water for washing throughout the process, the method in this embodiment produces high-purity bleached hardwood pulp that meets superior standards. Key quality indicators include a stable whiteness above 90% ISO, a methyl cellulose content above 90%, ash content less than 0.1%, and iron less than 10 ppm. The viscosity is an excellent level of 500±30.
