Pine is cooked by the kraft process using white liquor with a sulfidity of 30%, and a causticity of 85%. The wood moisture content is 45%. The cook requires an EA charge on wood of 18% (as Na2O on o.d. wood). a) How many actual pounds of NaOH and Na2S are needed for one ton of green chips? Hint: Use a basis of one ton of green chips. First calculate mass on Na2O basis, then use MW ratios to obtain true masses). b) How many actual pounds of Na2CO3 are being charged to the digester? (this is from the causticity number). c) The volume of white liquor charged per ton of green chips is 21.3ft3. The concentration of NaOH,Na2S, and Na2CO3 are in the correct propotions at 12, 5 , and 2.8lbm/ft3. How much water is needed to dilute this white liquor stream to the correct concentrations
