Abstract

The invention relates to a method for decolorizing paper pulp containing colored fibers. The paper is first pulped and subjected to fine screening. The screened pulp is then dispersed at a temperature in excess of 100.degree. C. and a pressure exceeding one atmosphere absolute pressure. Prior to the dispersing step a first agent (a reducing agent or oxidizing agent) is introduced to the pulp. A second agent is introduced to said pulp after introduction of the first agent. The second agent is an oxidizing agent when the first agent is a reducing agent, and a reducing agent when the first agent is an oxidizing agent. Finally, the dispersed pulp is recovered after the colored fibers are decolorized.
