Peroxide stabilization is essential to control the complex chemical reactions occurring during bleaching. Without proper stabilization, peroxide may decompose prematurely, undermining its bleaching efficiency. This decomposition is often catalyzed by the presence of metal ions such as iron, manganese, or copper, which accelerate the breakdown of peroxide through unwanted reactions. Furthermore, alkaline conditions inherent to the process can exacerbate instability, causing peroxide to degrade rapidly. This leads to inconsistent results, increased chemical consumption, and raised operational costs.
The lack of adequate peroxide stabilization can have far-reaching negative impacts. Mills may experience poor pulp brightness and uneven bleaching performance, resulting in reduced product quality. Inefficient use of chemicals raises costs and environmental burdens, as residual peroxide in effluent complicates water treatment processes. These issues underscore the necessity of employing advanced stabilization solutions to maintain controlled and efficient bleaching operations.
