pulp bleaching

Pulp bleaching was done often with elemental chlorine in the past.

Next meeting is June 26 in Halifax in conjunction with the International Pulp Bleaching Conference.

Conventional wood pulp bleaching employs redox reagents, such as chlorine dioxide, hydrogen peroxide and sodium dithionite, which can be produced by electrochemical methods.
