Efficiency of the O, P, PAA stages is lower than that
was observed with the D and Z stages
Lower efficiency means that, for the same number of e-
exchanged, delignification is lower.
One reason in the case of P and PAA, could be their
decom osition into inactive ox en.

was used to bleach ~20% of all kraft pulp (2005).
ECF bleaching is now the dominant technology worldwide,accounting for + 75% of bleached kraft pulp globally.
TCF process peaked in the mid-1990s
Lack of stricter government regulation and consumer demand
5-6% of bleached kraft pulp is made using TCF sequences (2005),mainly in Finland and Sweden.
Regulations and consumer demand for TCF pulp and paper aredecreasin .

After bleaching, lignin is degraded into smaller, oxygen-
water, especially if the pH is greater than 7.
These molecules must be removed between bleachingstages to avoid excessive use of bleaching chemicals

TCF stages rely more heavily on oxygen-based bleachingagents which are more susceptible to the detrimental effects

Whiteness
a measurement of light reflectance across all wavelengthsof visible light. More common in Europe.
Brightness
a measurement of light reflectance of a specific wavelengthof blue light. More common in North America
Brightness represents a more narrow measurement of light
reflectance than whiteness.

As an electrophile, PAA does not react with aliphatic
h drox l rou s and therefore does not react with mostcarbohydrates.
However, hexenuronic acid groups in kraft pulp xylanhave a double bond and thus provide a reactive site for
electrophilic attack.
