The bleaching washing process in Suzano Papel e Celulose (Mucuri-BA) s -fiberline 2 utilizes condensate from evaporation 2, which contains high COD load. This laboratory study was designed to verify the influence of evaporation condensate COD load and chlorine dioxide consumption in pulp bleachability, in A/DEpDP. Four simulations were performed and industrial condensate from Suzano s Mucuri unit and two other Pulp Plants (A and B) were utilized. The influence of DDW filtrate, both diluted and concentrated, in contrast to condensate, was also evaluated. On the condensate characterization, COD content on Suzano s sample (2910.8 ppm) was eight times higher than the values of Plants A and B (263.3 and 339.2 ppm, respectively) and the methanol content was 74.0% of COD s value. Analysis showed that 98.16% of the pulp s COD variation could be explained by the condensate COD load used to wash the pulp. Simulations 1 and 2 evaluated the bleachability influence of the following condensates: Suzano, Plants A and B, and Suzano s optimized. Suzano s sample, with greater condensate and pulp COD values, presented greater bleachability difficulty, where this variation can be attributed to the COD load of the pulp entering the bleach plant. COD influence on pulp viscosity was not significant. Finally, in order to achieve a final brightness of 89.7% ISO, there was an active chlorine consumption reduction equivalent to 1.3; 0.9 and 1.8 kg/tsa for Plant A, B and Suzano optimized respectively, when compared to Suzano s sample consumption. Simulation 4 evaluated the influence of washing the pulp with condensed and filtrates (diluted and concentrated) that were collected from the DDWs. Washing the pulp with filtrate affected pulp bleachability negatively, increasing Ep kappa number and interfering with brightness development in all bleaching stages. Moreover, there was an increase in active chlorine consumption of 5.0 and 13.0 kg/ADT, for the samples washed with diluted and concentrated filtrates, respectively, when compared with the consumption for pulp washed with condensate, to achieve final pulp brightness equivalent to 89.0% ISO. Thereby, it is possible to infer that the use of washer filtrates is not economically attractive, given the increase in active chlorine consumption in the bleaching step.
