English term

black liquor

GBK English to Portuguese Tech/Engineering Paper / Paper Manufacturing
Definition from Wikipedia:
Black liquor is a byproduct of the kraft process, (also known as kraft pulping or sulfate process) during the production of paper pulp. Wood is decomposed into cellulose fibers (from which paper is made), hemicellulose and lignin fragments. Black liquor is an aqueous solution of lignin residues, hemicellulose, and the inorganic chemicals used in the process.
Example sentences:
Black liquor (BL), a by-product of the chemical pulping process, is an important liquid fuel in the pulp and paper industry. It contains almost all of the inorganic cooking chemicals along with the lignin and other organic matter separated from the wood during pulping in the digester. (LULEÅ UNIVERSITETSBIBLIOTEK )
Sometimes, people just need to make the best with what they have got to work with. This is what paper mills are trying to do by burning the "black liquor" waste which is a leftover remnant of chemicals and the lignin. As part of the Kraft process, the leftovers are burned to create steam which turns large generators, which in turn provide electricity for the plant. (AutoblogGreen)
The black liquor waste stream is converted from the paper pulping process into synthesis gas. The synthesis gas can then be processed into a variety of fuels—likely dimethyl ether (DME) and methanol (MeOH), although fuels such as Fischer-Tropsch diesel (FTD), Synthetic Natural Gas (SNG), or hydrogen are also possible.

Na indústria papeleira, o Licor negro ou Lixívia negra é um fluido processual produzido à saída do digestor, um elemento que é responsável pela cozedura da madeira para retirar componentes indesejáveis ao processo de fabricação do papel, tais como lenhina, extrativos e cinzas. (Wikipedia)
O bagaço de cana e o licor negro estão entre as fontes mais importantes, nos setores sucro-alcooleiro e de papel e celulose, respectivamente, além de diversos tipos de sistemas híbridos com combustíveis fósseis. (Fórum Capixaba de Mudanças Climáticas)
Por razões economicas e ambientais, o licor negro precisa ser recuperado – daí o SISTEMA DE RECUPERAÇÃO QUÍMICA. (UFPR)
