Abstract
AbstractIn the present investigation a steady‐state mathematical model is developed for a typical four stage CEHH bleaching sequence in Indian Pulp and Paper Industry. Each stage of the sequence is composed of chemical additions and mixing, reaction in a retention tower, and washing. Unit operation models were formulated using mass balances on liquor, fibres, kappa number, chemicals and COD based on the assumption of perfect mixing and quasi steady‐state. The COD is used in this paper as an indication of the amount of effluent coming out from four bleaching stages. In order to validate the model, the simulated results are compared with the literature data; a good agreement is achieved between the simulated results with the literature data.
