A process is provided for inexpensively producing high yield mechanical cellulose pulp having good paper properties, which comprises preheating particulate lignocellulosic material; defibrating the preheated material under a superatmospheric steam pressure within the range from about 2 to about 4.5 bar above atmospheric pressure in a disc refiner under conditions such that steam is generated during the defibration; continuing the defibration until a cellulose pulp is obtained having a freeness within the range from about 300 to about 700 ml CSF; flash drying the defibrated cellulose pulp while maintaining a superatmospheric steam pressure within the said range during the drying; withdrawing steam generated during the defibration and passing it in indirect heat exchange with steam utilized in the flash drying, so as to utilize in the drying at least 30% of the heat content thereof; and then removing and baling the flash-dried cellulose pulp. Water vapor produced in the flash dryer is condensed and recycled to the disc refiner.

A process is provided for the efficient conversion of water-containing organic materials such as bark, peat and sludge as fuels into energy, including drying the materials to convert them into fuels and then combusting the fuels in order to recover as much energy as possible at the lowest possible cost; which comprises heating the material in a steam vessel while enveloping the material in steam at superatmospheric pressure, heating the steam by heat exchange with steam at a higher pressure and higher temperature than the steam in the vessel; mechanically dewatering the material; and then drying the material to convert the material into a fuel, converting water driven from the material into steam, and forming excess steam in the dryer, of which steam all or part is recycled and condensed directly on the material in the steam vessel; and then combusting the dry material in finely divided form in a steam boiler, utilizing the high pressure steam that is generated in a turbine, which in turn operates a generator, converting the energy content of the steam into electric energy; and utilizing part of the turbine steam for heat exchange with the dryer system.
