Abstract

See full text

Methods are provided for the recovery of dissolved organics, such as hemicelluloses, lignin, and acetic acid, from a lignocellulosic feedstock or process liquor, where the dissolved organics are recovered via an adsorbent. The adsorbent may include activated carbon, modified activated carbon, precipitated calcium carbonate, and lime and/or lime mud. The dissolved organics may be adsorbed from a pre-hydrolysis liquor of a pulping process such as the Kraft-based dissolving pulp production process. Other methods include a combined (or integrated) process of adsorption, ion exchange resin treatment, and membrane filtration for the treatment of a lignocellulosic liquor, such as a pre-hydrolysis liquor of kraft-based dissolving pulp production process, such that dissolved organics such as lignin, acetic acid, and hemicellulose-derived sugars may be extracted and optionally concentrated.
