The black liquor comprises 15% solids by weight of which two thirds are organic chemicals and the remainder are inorganic. [3] Normally the organics in black liquor are 40-45% soaps, [4] 35-45% lignin and 10-15% other organics. The organic matter in the black liquor is made up of water/alkali soluble degradation components from the wood. [1]
The weak black liquor is further evaporated to 65% or even 80% solids ("heavy black liquor" [10]) and burned in the recovery boiler to recover the inorganic chemicals for reuse in the pulping process. Higher solids in the concentrated black liquor increases the energy and chemical efficiency of the recovery cycle, but also gives higher ...
The United States is one of the biggest paper consumers in the world. Between 1990 and 2002, paper consumption in the United States increased from 84.9 million tons to 97.3 million tons. In 2006, there were approximately 450 paper mills in the United States, accounting for $68 billion. [1]
This energy is generated from wood leftovers (bark and chips) and from black liquor, which in principle is 50% of the incoming wood (as the yield is less than 50% and a majority of the rest ends up in the black liquor). [4] In the mechanical pulp mills the majority of the electricity is converted to heat, creating steam which is utilized in the ...
During the period from 1988, Chemrec developed two pilot plants for first-generation atmospheric air-blown BLG gasifiers, first 1988–1989 with 3 tds/d (ton black liquor solids per day) capacity at SKF, Hofors, Sweden, then 1990–1994 with 75 tds/d capacity at AssiDomän, Frövi, Sweden, and followed by scale-up to the first commercial demo-plant, with this technology and 330 tds/d capacity ...

The recovery boiler size was 100 – 300 TDS (tons of dry solids) per day. and black liquor concentration 45 – 55%. Frequently to sustain combustion auxiliary fuel needed to be fired. Primary air was 60 – 70% of total air with secondary the rest.
