Zusammenfassung: | The present invention relates to an environmental-friendly process for reducing the content of chloride in a liquor inventory of a chemical pulp mill. According to the invention, in a recovery system for pulping chemicals containing sulphur and an alkali metal; precipitator dust formed in a recovery boiler is collected and withdrawn, dissolved in water and electrolyzed for production of chlorine or hydrochloric acid in the anolyte. Since the dust normally contains a large amount of sodium sulphate, sulphuric acid and sodium hydroxide can also be produced in the electrolysis. To reduce the content of impurities, before the electrolysis, the pH of the aqueous solution is adjusted to above about 10 to precipitate inorganic substances which are separated-off together with flocculated or undissolved substances. |
