The first act to ameliorate bleaching process is the major elimination of lignin. Actually, the use of oxygen delignification stage before bleaching process is the essential stage in improving bleaching process and reducing process emission. In this study, the effect of conducting oxygen-delignifying process under different process condition, on chemical, physical, mechanical and optical properties of kenaf bast kraft pulp was investigated. The kenaf bast kraft pulp with the kappa number of 22, 1154 ml/g viscosity, and 38% ISO brightness was prepared. Oxygen-delignifying treatments were carried out with three different temperatures of 90, 100 and 110°C, and two oxygen pressures of 5 and 7 bars, with and without magnesium sulfate addition. Results indicated that oxygen delignification treatment led to intense decrease in pulp kappa number, while the pulp viscosity did not change significantly. Results of measuring delignified pulp viscosity showed that the magnesium sulfate addition caused to prevention of pulp viscosity downfall. The increase in reaction temperature had a significant effect on the process improvement, but raising the oxygen pressure did not have a meaningful effect on the process. Also, the pulp brightness was increased about 7%.

In conducting environmentally friendly processes for pulp production, first step is to reduce the effluent pollution load in each stage, and because the bleaching process is the most polluting stage in the production of pulp, improving it is one of the most important matters. The first act to ameliorate bleaching process of chemical pulps is the reduction of colored materials, mostly lignin, which enter to the bleaching section. Thus, the use of oxygen delignification stage after pulping and before bleaching process is the key stage in improving process and cleaner production. In this study, the effect of conducting oxygen-delignifying treatment by two kinds of machines, and under different process condition, on chemical, physical, mechanical and optical properties of bagasse soda pulp was investigated. The bagasse soda pulp with the kappa number of 20, 955 ml/g viscosity, and 37% ISO brightness was prepared from Pars Hafttapeh Company. Oxygen-delignifying treatments were carried out with three different temperatures of 90, 100 and 110°C, and two oxygen pressures of 5 and 7 bars, with and without magnesium sulfate addition, by two kinds of machines. Results indicated that oxygen delignification treatment led to intense decrease in pulp kappa number, while the pulp viscosity did not change. Results of measuring delignified pulp viscosity showed that the magnesium sulfate addition caused to prevention of pulp viscosity downfall. The increase in reaction temperature had a significant effect on the process improvement, but raising the oxygen pressure did not have a meaningful effect on the process. The pulp brightness was increased about 4-6%. And also, due to the need of shorter time in order to reach the reaction temperature in the Iranian made machine, pulp delignifying by this machine was a little lower than Quantum machine.

Old corrugated container (OCC) recycling generates large volume of effluent which is heavily loaded with pollutants. Its treatment is very difficult and complicated due to the presence of various pollutants and certain chemical with complicated structure. In this study, the treatment of OCC recycling effluent using nano TiO2 was investigated and the treated effluent parameters such as COD, TDS, TSS, TS, EC and turbidity were measured. Nano TiO2 was applied at 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% of the effluent volume and the pH was adjusted at either 5, 9 or 7.3 (as received from mill). The results showed that the nano TiO2 and pH are effective on all of the parameters and the effect was statistically significant at 99%, but the effect of variables on EC was not measured statistically significant. The effect of pH on all of parameter was statistically significant at 99% expect on EC. Optimum condition was pH=9 and the dosage of nano TiO2= 0.5% and 1%. At this treatment condition, COD, TDS, TSS, TS and turbidity were reduced by 47.5, 38.7, 98, 70.4, and 97.7 % respectively
