Abstract: The process for producing pulp according to the present invention consists in the subsequent steps of an aqueous treatment of a vegetable stock at a temperature within the range of from 110.degree. to 170.degree. C. under a pressure of from 2 to 7 atm.g. for a period of from 0.3 to 4 hours at a weight ratio of the vegetable stock to water of 1:2-4 respectively; a simultaneous impregnation and cooking of said vegetable stock in a solution of nitric acid at a temperature of from 70.degree. to 90.degree. C. for 0.5-3 hours; cooking at a temperature of from 100.degree. to 130.degree. C. under a pressure of from 1 to 4 atm.g. for 0.3-0.5 hour; an alkali extraction of the vegetable stock; decontamination of the gaseous cooking products by mixing thereof with the air in a volumetric ratio of 1:0.5-1 respectively, and treatment with the spent liquor resulting from the stage of alkali extraction.
