Abstract: A continuous process for producing viscose yarn including feeding a viscose solution through spinneret dies into a spinning bath to spin viscose yarn, and finally regenerating and concurrently cooling the spun yarn, now carrying entrapped carbon bisulfide in the form of an emulsion, from said spinning bath at a temperature below the boiling point of the carbon bisulfide. Thereafter, while maintaining the finally regenerated yarn in a cooled condition, washing the yarn with water whereby some water, in addition to the carbon bisulfide, becomes entrapped in the yarn, subjecting the washed yarn to avivage treatment, and finally drying the resulting yarn at an elevated temperature sufficient to concurrently remove both the entrapped water and the carbon bisulfide from the yarn. Thereafter, the resulting dried and carbon bisulfide-free yarn is wound into a package.
