The effluents of pulp bleaching are the main problem of wastewater disposal faced by the pulp industry because of their non-biodegradability. Today the demand for quality discharges requires better methods than conventional biological processes. The changes recently proposed to the federal regulations for controlling discharges from pulp and paper industry operations in Canada have required many operations to install secondary biological effluent treatment process. Such treatment often produce sludges that must be removed from the system and disposed of routinely, usually daily or weekly. This paper describes pyrolytic oils obtained from sludges from the paper and pulp industry.
