    Abstract: Disclosed is a process for the acetylation of wood, wherein the wood is impregnated with acetylation fluid and heated in stages. It is thereby secured that an acetylation reaction is conducted at a temperature above the boiling temperature of the acetylation fluid, at a stage where the impregnated wood is largely devoid of free acetylation fluid (i.e., acetylation fluid not retained in the wood matrix or in capillaries). Preferably, the process is conducted in a plant having conveyors, such as transportation screws, in the zones in which the separate heating steps are conducted.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for continuous acetylation of wood elements. The acetylation is conducted with an acetylation medium at a pressure of at least 1.5 barg in a substantially oxygen free environment. Alternatively, the method includes the steps of: (a) feeding wood elements in a substantially oxygen free environment to a continuous acetylation reactor, and (b) treating the wood elements with an acetylation medium in the continuous acetylation reactor under wood acetylation reaction conditions, at a pressure of at least 1.5 barg. The process can acetylate wood elements to a high acetyl content in an efficient way, without compromising on the quality of the material. The acetylated wood elements can be used in the production of medium density fibreboards with superior qualities such as dimensional stability and durability.

    Abstract: Disclosed is the integration of the production of acetic anhydride from ketene, and the acetylation of wood using acetylation fluid comprising acetic acid and acetic anhydride. The invention involves recirculating acetylation fluid recovered from wood acetylation to a unit for the production of acetic anhydride from acetic acid and ketene. The acetic anhydride product stream can, in turn, be directly used as a wood acetylation fluid.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a process for the acetylation of wood. The wood to be acetylated is first subjected to an extraction step. The resulting extracted wood particularly has a reduced hemicellulose content. This extracted wood is subjected to contact with an acetylation agent. The extraction can be done with an extraction fluid which is, e.g., water, acetone, ethanol, methanol, or acetic acid. The water can be pure water, such as tap water or demineralised water, or it can be a dilute salt solutions (e.g. water containing ammonium oxalate or sodium sulphite). Hot water extraction is preferred. The resulting acetylated extracted wood, particularly wood elements, have a desirable swelling behaviour at lower acetyl contents than conventional acetylated wood. The wood can be in the form of wood elements, solid wood, or wood veneers.
