Article: Influence of organic additives on calcium carbonate precipitation during kraft pulping.(Pulping)

Application: This study identifies antiscalant chemicals that are effective for controlling calcium carbonate scale problems in kraft process liquors.

In this study, calcium was monitored during laboratory batch cooks to evaluate the influence of various organic additives on the precipitation of calcium carbonate during kraft pulping. Included in the study were antiscalant chemicals thought to be capable of with standing the harsh environment of kraft pulping and recovery operations. Results indicate significant differences in the way the tested chemicals inhibit calcium precipitation and their efficacy. For EDTA--an aminocarboxylic acid used to examine the ...
