Pulping Additives:Anthraquinone
• Bach and Fiehn first reacted anthraquinone with hydrocellulose under alkaline conditions in 1972» Degradation of cellulose was
slowed
• When this additive was added to an alkaline cook, not only was the degradation of carbohydrates reduced, the rate of lignin removal was increased.

Pulping Additives:Polysulfides
• Sulfur polymers: Na2Sx
• Polysulfides oxidize carbohydrate reducing end groups to carboxylic acid thus slowing peeling.
• Can be formed through the reaction: Na2S + So Na2S2
Na2S2 + So Na2S3
• The addition of elemental sulfur to white liquor forms polysulfides.» Resulting increase in total sulfur causes sulfidity of
liquor to rise.

• It is best to generate polysulfides through the oxidation of white liquor forming elemental sulfur which will further react with Na2S.
2Na2S + 2O2 + H2O 2So + 4NaOH*
Na2S + (x-1)So Na2Sx
*This reaction can be catalyzed using activated carbon
• The oxidation of Na2S to thiosulfate is a competing reaction under these conditions:
2Na2S + 2O2 + H2O Na2S2O3 + 2NaOH

• Polysulfides are unstable at temperatures > 130°C
2Na2S3 + 6NaOH 4Na2S + Na2S2O3 + H2O
• The conditions used in a kraft cook must therefore be modified in order to gain a yield benefit from the reaction of polysulfides.» Use thin or short chips.» Allow for ample impregnation time.» Use a slow rate of heat up.

• The use of polysulfides gives a yield gain by reduction of peeling reactions.» Most of the gain through reduced
degradation of glucomannans.
• In 1987, a 3.2% yield increase in a kraft mill corresponded to a 1.7 million dollar savings.

Chiyoda polysulfide process (2)
• This process is a very simple. Major equipment comprises the filter and the reactor. » The unique up flow type filter can remove
substantially all the suspended solid in feed white liquor.
• This process does not affect the operation of existing equipment.
• The catalyst has three to four-year life, and it maintains high polysulfide concentration during the life. » An activated carbon with specific pore structure is
used as the catalyst. The catalyst maintains optimum conversion to maximize polysulfide production and long catalyst life.

• Oxidized carbohydrate becomes stable compound for alkaline liquor and the amount of dissolved carbohydrate in the black liquor is reduced. As a result; » Pulp yield is increased with insignificant
changes to pulp properties. » Black liquor viscosity is decreased. » Recovery boiler load is reduced.
