CA 2413386

Processes and systems are provided for cooking wood chips containing knots in a digester to produce a chemical pulp. Specifically, a low pressure slurry of comminuted cellulosic fibrous material is formed in a vessel operating at essentially atmospheric pressure by mixing therein a liquid and the comminuted cellulosic fibrous material. The low pressure slurry is thereafter supplied to a low pressure inlet of a high pressure transfer device while liquid is removed from the slurry through a low pressure outlet thereof. A high pressure liquid is supplied to the transfer device (e.g., via a slurry pump) so as to form a high pressure slurry of the comminuted cellulosic material which is then discharged from a high pressure outlet of the transfer device. Knots are removed via a knot separator from a slurry of undercooked knot-containing cellulosic material at essentially atmospheric pressure. The removed knots are thereafter transferred to the vessel so that the knots become part of the low pressure slurry supplied to the low pressure inlet of the transfer device.
