Abstract

Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) plays an important role in the pulp and paper industry to produce pulp with high purity, yellowing is not desired and paper with high quality. Bleaching pulp using chlorine dioxide (ClO2) is widely chosen because more environmentally friendly and does not produce dioxins, furans, or adsorbable organic halogens (AOX) compounds. The most widely process to produce chlorine dioxide (ClO2) in pulp and paper industry are integrated and non-integrated process. This study aims to compare the integrated and non-integrated process, in terms of the raw materials used, waste generated, production costs required and costs required to bleach pulp in pulp and paper industry. The results showed that the integrated process is more efficient and profitable to use in the pulp and paper industry in remote areas due to lower activity for transportation and handling of raw materials. Lower hazardous activity regarding raw material handling and storage, and no solid waste as by-product are some advantages that offered by integrated process. Production costs in the integrated process are also lower than the non-integrated process. But under certain conditions, the non-integrated process is still needed as an option to produce chlorine dioxide (ClO2) where the integrated process cannot run optimally.
