Abstract
A method of regenerating an activated carbon catalyst which is used in the production of polysulphide liquor. In the method, the catalyst is washed with a washing liquid in order to remove the sediment accumulated in the catalyst. According to the present invention, in this case, the activated carbon catalyst is regenerated most suitably by bringing it to a multi-stage washing which comprises at least one washing step in which the washing liquid used comprises sodium sulphide, and one washing step in which acidic washing liquid is used. The sulphur precipitate is peeled off using sodium sulphide, and the iron and other metals can be effectively removed by using an acidic washing, without damaging the catalyst.
