Abstract

See full text

A method for reusing spent gas from an ozone bleaching reactor includes steps for removing lint from the spent gas, compressing it, passing it through a reactor in which hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide are destroyed by oxidation, and cooling the gas. Injecting the gas together with compressed air into a mist separator for removal of any mist from the gas and then passing the gas through a pressure swing adsorption device in which nitrogen, carbon dioxide, trace water vapor, and other trace elements may be removed by adsorption on a molecular sieve material. The recycled gas is fed to an ozone generator and from there to an ozone/pulp bleaching reactor. By appropriate selection and layering of molecular sieve materials in the pressure swing adsorption device, it is possible to provide selective removal of a variety of gaseous elements from a gas stream.
