Abstract: A new and improved way of continuously cooking fiber material, wherein temperatures and alkaline levels are controlled to be maintained within specific levels in different zones of the digesting process in order to optimize chemical consumption and heat-economy and at the same time achieve very good pulp properties. The digesting process includes a top separator that separates the transport liquid from the fiber material and permits the fiber material to be exposed to the cooking liquid.

Abstract: A screen system for a digester for continuous cooking under raised pressure and temperature of fiber material in a vertical vessel, where input of fiber material and cooking liquid takes place at the top of the digester, withdrawal of spent cooking liquor is carried out from at least one digester screening arrangement (1D) between the top and the bottom of the digester, and fiber material is fed out from the bottom (1C) of the digester, wherein at least one of said screening arrangements (1, 2) has at least one screen element (2A) of which the main configuration is circular and which is assembled by means of welding, and which is fitted into the digester shell by means of welding.
