  2. Lignosulfonates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignosulfonates

    Lignosulfonates (LS) are water-soluble anionic polyelectrolyte polymers: they are byproducts from the production of wood pulp using sulfite pulping. [1] Most delignification in sulfite pulping involves acidic cleavage of ether bonds, which connect many of the constituents of lignin. [2]

  3. Sulfite process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfite_process

    The sulfite process is acidic and one of the drawbacks is that the acidic conditions hydrolyze some of the cellulose, which means that sulfite pulp fibers are not as strong as kraft pulp fibers. The yield of pulp (based on wood used) is higher than for kraft pulping and sulfite pulp is easier to bleach .

  6. Black liquor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_liquor

    The organic matter in the black liquor is made up of water/alkali soluble degradation components from the wood. [1] Lignin is degraded to shorter fragments with sulphur content at 1-2% and sodium content at about 6% of the dry solids. The extractives gives tall oil soap and crude turpentine.

  7. Water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

    Groundwater: The water emerging from some deep ground water may have fallen as rain many tens, hundreds, or thousands of years ago. Soil and rock layers naturally filter the ground water to a high degree of clarity and often, it does not require additional treatment besides adding chlorine or chloramines as secondary disinfectants.

    Those that market their wines more accurately will claim that they don’t add sulfites, or that their product is low in sulfites. “They know it’s impossible to say ‘sulfite-free,’” says ...

  9. Passive treatment system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_treatment_system

    A hybrid system using Flowforms in a passive treatment pond, in Norway. There are many types of water treatment systems available for removing metals from acid mine drainage. Passive treatment systems are a relatively recent technology that involves using sulfate-reducing bacteria or limestone or both to neutralize acidity and precipitate metals.
