Pilot-Scale Investigation into the Effects of Alkaline Peroxide Pre-Treatments on Low-Consistency Refining of Primary Refined Softwood TMP

Primary refined coarse softwood thermomechanical pulp was treated with alkaline peroxide prior to low-consistency (LC) refining. The effects of the pre-treatments on pulp quality, refinability, and electrical energy consumption were assessed. Four pre-treatments were conducted with alkali charges of...
