Abstract
A three-stage bleaching process for dissolving grade pulp utilizes the sequence OP(alkaline)-Z-P and the off gas from the Z-stage is delivered to the alkaline (OP)-stage whose parameters are controlled to fully react all of the oxygen of the off gas. The filtrate or waste water from the Z-stage, at a pH below 3, serves to dilute the alkaline OP-stage pulp before Z-stage bleaching and/or for de-ashing of the P pulp following the P-stage.
