Continuous Cooking Development
Metso17
The four rules slightly modified
1. The alkali concentration should be as even as possible
2. The temperature should be low throughout the cook to minimise p gcarbohydrate degradation
3. The concentration of HS- should be as high as possible
4. The concentration of dissolved lignin has no negative effect as long as the alkali concentration is sufficiently high

A short retention time increased temperature
The H-factor contribution is increasing exponentially with an increased temperature. The increase is drastic when the temperature exceeds 165 C

A high HS- concentration brings: Increased delignification rateDecreased amount of residual phase lignin Increased cooking selectivity

R & D had shown:
Alkali & HS- profiling is crucial A low temperature is important for carbohydrate retention
The big question was: How do we do this?
Metso33
Which way to go?A two vessel system was chosenA two vessel system was chosen
Metso34
CompactCooking
It was obvious that a two vessel digester must be used!
B t h d t th hi i t th di t ?But how do we get the chips into the digester?
Customers had started to ask for production levels unheard of before!!Customers had started to ask for production levels unheard of before!!
