Abstract In order to close the water cycle in pulp mills with condensates instead of fresh water, the malodorous/hazardous volatile compounds and colored substances have to be removed by appropriate efficient methods. In the present work, the condensate from the evaporation of black liquor (BL) from a kraft mill was purified by a batch adsorptive process by means of commercial activated carbon (AC). The effluent was found to contain a wide range of aromatic and organosulfur volatile compounds, including toluene, ethylguaicol, syringaldehyde, dimethyl disulfide (DMDS), dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS), 2,3-dimethylthiophene, benzothiol and benzothiophene derivatives. Methanol was the major volatile organic component in the condensate (201 mg l−1), which was, however, poorly adsorbed on the AC surface. Aromatics and organosulfur contaminants were adsorbed almost completely in 2–5 min at 23°C under the optimized AC load (900 mg l−1). The treatment allowed the elimination of up to 99% of the obnoxious odor, color and turbidity of the condensate. The adsorption equilibrium followed the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order kinetics. The new process could be incorporated in the pulp mill with relatively low additional reagent costs.

AbstractSulfide ions (S−2) derived from Na2S in black liquor, after the pulping process, is the source of production H2S during of black liquor recovery cycle in Kraft pulp and paper industries. Tow adsorbents (Cu-PAC, Cu-GAC) by loading Cu+2 on powder activated carbon (PAC) and granular activated carbon (GAC) were synthesized to created more adsorption sites and were improved their selectivity for removing S−2 from black liquor with 3 level of sulfidity (18, 20 and 22 %). The adsorbents were characterized by BET, FTIR, SEM, and EDX. Adsorption of S−2 for Cu-PAC and Cu-GAC were fitted well with Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm model respectively and both of the adsorbents followed pseudo-second-order kinetic. The results of thermodynamic parameters showed the endothermic process. The removal efficiency results showed Cu-PAC has better performance than Cu-GAC. This is due to the higher specific surface area of Cu-PAC, which has led to more adsorption sites for S−2. By considering appropriate temperature conditions and direct effect of the S−2 on the production of H2S during of black liquor recovery cycle, Cu-PAC will be able to prevent H2S production and odorous the black liquor recovery cycle by removing 79.89 % of the S−2.

Combination of activated carbon and crude enzyme that immobilized in alginate was developed immobilized enzyme to decolorize black liquor. Characterization of material and black liquor were analyzed by using SEM and FTIR. The study revealed that immobilized activated carbon-enzyme has high decolorization during the removal of black liquor. It has able to decolorize black liquor up to 97.7% for 5 hours. Further, it also reduced COD as 66.77%, pH 9, and TDS 7.42 g/L. Characterization of black liquor by using FTIR showed that the beads after treatment has addition of functional group such as C-O phenol at wave number 1220.94 cm-1 and C-O-C ether at wave number 1060.85 cm-1 from (C-O-C) ether. Characterization of immobilized activated carbon-enzyme by using SEM showed that this bead before treatment was more granulated than after treatment. After treatment, the bead surface was more homogeneous. Conclusively, immobilized activated carbon-enzyme is a high potential adsorption for the removal of black liquor.
