Abstract
The rate of oxygen delignification of eucalypt kraft pulp was found to be a function of temperature, lignin content, applied oxygen pressure and alkali concentration. Existing rate equations for oxygen delignif ication of hardwood and softwood kraft pulps were found to be inadequa te for predicting accurate delignification profiles. Alternative rate equations for oxygen delignification of eucalypt kraft pulp are presen ted.
