Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates methods and processes for the separation and refining of lignin from spent cooking liquor, called black liquor, present in industrial chemical plants, and compositions thereof. A process is provided for separating black liquor into at least two, three, or four streams selected from: (i) a gaseous stream comprising volatile sulfur compounds; (ii) a lignin-comprising stream produced by extracting lignin into a limited solubility solvent S1; (iii) a salt stream, comprising solid sodium and sulfate salts; and (iv) a salt-depleted and lignin-depleted aqueous stream comprising hydrocarbons. |
