A representative medium-consistency system is shown in Figure 11-19. Pulp from a brown stock washer or decker at about 10-14% consistency is charged with caustic or oxidized white liquor. It is then preheated in a low-pressure steam mixer and pumped through one or more medium-consistency gas mixers to an upflow pressurized reaction tower. Steam and oxygen are added upstream of the medium-consistency mixer or are added directly into it. The reactor bottom may be hemispherical or conical, and the top is equipped with a discharger.... The stock is depressurized through a separator where steam is flashed and small amounts of by-product gases, oxygen and other noncondensibles are released. 1, record 20, English, - medium%2Dconsistency%20oxygen%20delignification

D'une façon générale on admet que, dans le cas d'une séparation d'huile assurée uniquement par un ralentissement de vapeur, il faut réduire la vitesse à 0,5 ou à 0,6 m/s.
