Extractives are complex mixture of terpenes, fats, waxes, resin acids, fatty acids,

phenols and tannins. Most extractives are soluble in alkaline solutions, and a

good solubility permits the processing of wood species that are rich in extractives

(including tropical woods). In kraft pulping, however, high extractive contents of

wood may result in a considerable reduction in pulp yield. This in turn leads to an

4.2 Kraft Pulping Processes 181

increase in the consumption of chemicals, since extractives react rapidly with

alkali and thus the amount of available hydroxyl ions is reduced [126]. The dissolution

of extractives during pulping is of primary importance. Extractives are

responsible for pitch problems in papers, they may also prevent delignification by

covering parts of lignin with resinous material or simply reduce the penetrability

of cooking chemicals into the wood [127], and they add to the toxicity of kraft mill

effluents. The total amount of extractives which can be recovered from pulp mills

varies greatly with the wood species and the storage conditions of the wood

(Scheme 4.22). The highly volatile fraction is called turpentine, sulfate turpentine

or tall oil (from the Swedish “tall” = pine), and is recovered from the digester relief

condensate [128]. The sulfur-containing fractions (mercaptanes) need to be

removed from the distillates.

Scheme 4.22 Fractions of extractives obtained after kraft cooking [128].

Fatty acids and resin acid esters are saponified in alkaline pulping and recovered

as tall oil soap [1]. Acidification of the crude tall oil yields the corresponding

free acids. This deacidification process consumes a large amount of sulfuric acid,

which can be reduced by a carbon dioxide pretreatment.

Wood terpenes undergo mainly condensation reactions during pulping, and are

collected as sulfate turpentine. The major reactions of extractive components are

as follows:

_ Fatty acids [129]: these undergo isomerization reactions (the shift

of double bonds in the fatty acid chain from cis to trans, or vice

versa) under alkaline pulping conditions, and are mainly dis-

solved. Nonconjugated double bonds are transformed to mainly

conjugated isomers. The degree of conjugation is highly influenced

by the prevailing conditions during the cook. For linoleic

acid, almost no isomerization was observed at 150 °C, whereas at

180 °C almost 98% were isomerized [130]. The incorporation of

fatty acids into residual lignin has recently been demonstrated [12].

_ Resin acids [129]: these are also mainly dissolved. Part of the levopimaric

acid (65) is converted to abietic acid (66), though the

extent of this reaction during pulping is variable (Scheme 4.23).

The acidification and heating of sulfate soap finally converts most

of the levopimaric acid [131,132].

_ Waxes: sterol esters and waxes are saponified much more slowly

as compared to the glycerol esters. Waxes and triglycerides are

hydrolyzed during alkaline pulping; hence, no esters are detected

in sulfate soaps [129]. The sterol esters, waxes and free sterols do

not form soluble soaps as do free acids, and therefore have a tendency

to deposit and as such cause pitch problems.

A number of extractives survive the cook more or less unchanged, and this portion

is referred to as the “non-saponifiable” fraction.
