Abstract

The method is for producing pulp. More particularly, a displacement batch cooking process comprises recovery of a first treatment liquid by draining of the digester, preferably not using a displacement liquid. The method may preferably be used in a prehydrolysis step, wherein the recovery of the by-products is improved. In the recovery step, after the target P-factor in the prehydrolysis stage is reached, the hydrolysate is withdrawn by draining in at least one phase obtaining a strong first liquid and thereafter any residual hydrolysate may be displaced.
