Abstract

Method for recovering chemicals and energy from sulphite thick liquor containing organic and inorganic compounds obtained when producing pulp by chemical delignification of fibrous raw material using a sulphite pulping process, the method including processing of the organic and inorganic compounds at a global temperature above 800° C. whereby producing partly at least one phase of a liquid material and partly at least one phase of a gaseous material. The processing is carried out by gasification of the sulphite thick liquor in a gasification reactor at sub-stoichiometric conditions and in the presence of an oxidizing medium. The reactor has an opening in its bottom in the form of a chute which opens directly into a quench compartment.
