Abstract
A method and apparatus for bleaching high consistency pulp with a gaseous bleaching reagent. The pulp is shredded and then fluffed in the presence of a contacting gas which includes the gaseous bleaching reagent within an upstream vessel comprising a pin/foil contactor so as to suspend the pulp in the contacting gas and react the bleaching reagent with the pulp. The pulp is retained in the contactor for a predetermined time which is sufficient to consume about 75% to about 90% of a selected dose of the gaseous bleaching reagent which is required to delignify the high consistency pulp from an initial Kappa number to an intermediate Kappa number. The pulp and contacting gas are then separately supplied to a porous bed reactor where the reaction of the selected dose of the gaseous bleaching reagent with the pulp is substantially completed so as to further delignify the high is consistency pulp from the intermediate Kappa number to a final Kappa number.
