- This work addresses the assessment of ultrafiltration (UF) and nanofiltration (NF) for the treatment of a bleaching plant effluent (BPE) from aPortuguese sulphite pulp mill (Caima-Indústria de Celulose,S.A.) with the two-fold objective of water consumption minimization and by-products valorization. This is to be achieved through the recycling of UF/NF permeates as process water and the concentration of lignin and hemicelluloses for biorefinery purposes.Besides physical-chemical analysis, the effluent was characterized by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to yield the molecular mass distribution of the hemicelluloses and lignin and accordingly to select six flat sheet alkali resistant membranes: two tight UF membranes from ALFA LAVAL with molecular weight cut-off of 1kDa (ETNA01PP) and 2kDa (GR95PP) and four NF membranes: ALFA LAVAL NF99HF, KOCH MPF36, NADIR NP010, NADIR NP030.Parametric studies were carried out in permeation cells with a membrane surface area of 0.00196 m2 to investigate the influence of cross flow velocity (CFV) and transmembrane pressure (TMP) on permeate fluxes and retention coefficients. Concentration experiments were carried out in a LabStak® M20 with a total membrane surface area of 0.072 m2.Nanofiltration membrane ALFA LAVAL NF99HF was the most suitable one when operating at 70°C, with a CFV of 0.8 m/s and a TMP of 13 bar. An average permeate flux of 24.2 Lh-1m-2, lignin and hemicelluloses rejection coefficients between 94 and 97%, and an increase in total solids content from 3% to 7%(w/w) for a volumetric concentration factor of 3.1 were obtained.The SEC analysis yielded an average molecular mass of 1.32 kDa for lignin and 0.88 kDa for hemicelluloses. These close values made it difficult to envisage their fractionation in a single NF stage. Further studies should be carried out for the processing of the present concentrates.
