چکیده

Kraft-AQ pulping lignin was sequentially fractionated by organic solvent extractions and the molecular properties of each fraction were characterized by chemical degradation, GPC, UV, FT-IR, (13)C-NMR and thermal analysis. The average molecular weight and polydispersity of each lignin fraction increased with its hydrogen-bonding capacity (Hildebrand solubility parameter). In addition, the ratio of the non-condensed guaiacyl/syringyl units and the content of β-O-4 linkages increased with the increment of the lignin fractions extracted successively with hexane, diethylether, methylene chloride, methanol, and dioxane. Furthermore, the presence of the condensation reaction products was contributed to the higher thermal stability of the larger molecules.

Multifunctional Alkaline Pulping, Delignification and Hemicellulose Extraction

In this study, multifunctional alkaline pulping was suggested to produce different pulp grades at one mill site, ranging from high-yield paper pulp to high-purity dissolving pulp. In all process modifications, sulfur was successfully replaced by anthraquinone. Autohydrolysis and alkaline pre-extraction were applied to Eucalyptus globulus wood chips, followed by kraft and soda-AQ pulping. Alkali...

Pulping Catalysts in Trees

Several hardwood and softwood trees were analyzed for anthraquinone-type components. Wood samples were reduced to a small size and extracted with an organic solvent; the extracts were then concentrated and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy. Low levels of AQ and anthrone components were detected using a sensitive selected-ion monitoring technique. Ten out of seventeen hardwood sam...

Lignin Separation from Kraft Black Liquors by Tangential Ultrafiltration

I n chemical pulping a large part of the wood is dissolved during digestion. The dry matter content of the generated black liquor is typically 12 to 18 wt% [1, 2]. In the case of kraft black liquors four main groups of organic constituents are present, 30-45 wt% ligneous material, 25-35 wt% saccharinic acids, about 10 wt% formic and acetic acid, and 3-5 wt% extractives. It also contains about 1...

Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction of Arabinogalactan and Dihydroquercetin Simultaneously from Larix gmelinii as a Pretreatment for Pulping and Papermaking

An ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) method using ethanol was applied for extracting arabinogalactan (AG) and dihydroquercetin (DHQ) simultaneously from larch wood, as a pretreatment for pulping and papermaking. The extraction parameters were optimized by a Box-Behnken experimental design with the yields of AG and DHQ as the response values. Under optimum conditions (three extractions, each ...

Lignin Prepared by Ultrafiltration of Black Liquor: Investigation of Solubility, Viscosity, and Ash Content

Technical lignin, which can be potentially obtained in large amounts as a by-product from kraft pulping, represents a potential resource for manufacturing fuels and chemicals. Upgrading of lignin, by lowering its molecular weight, is a valuable alternative to precipitation from black liquor, which occurs in the Lignoboost process. The solubility properties of Lignoboost lignin and filtered lign...
