A biorefinery using the process of hemicellulose pre-extraction and subsequent pulping provides a promising way for the utilization of straw biomass and resolution of problems related to silicon. In this work, hemicellulose was extracted from depithed corn stover with sodium hydroxide solution before soda-AQ pulping. Components of the extracts were quantified by ion chromatography. The paramete...

Soda pulping was performed using kenaf stalk, core, and bast as raw materials. It was observed that all these components could yield good paper characteristics when the resulting pulps were beaten to a freeness of 200 to 300 mL. Soda pulp made from the stalk was comparable to the frond from oil palm in sheet properties, but the latter would require higher beating energy to reach similar freenes...

We have studied the structural modifications of lignins from sisal and flax during their soda-anthraquinone (AQ) pulping and subsequent totally chlorine-free (TCF) and elementary chlorine-free (ECF) bleaching. For this purpose, residual lignins were isolated from pulps, analyzed by Py-GC/MS, 2D-NMR, and GPC, and their characteristics were compared to the “milled-wood” lignin of the raw material...

The fate of lipophilic extractives from several nonwoody species (flax, hemp, sisal and abaca) used for the manufacturing of cellulose pulps, was studied during soda/anthraquinone (AQ) pulping and totally chorine free (TCF) and elemental chlorine free (ECF) bleaching. With this purpose, the lipophilic extracts from the raw materials and their unbleached and bleached industrial pulps, were analy...

this study was devoted to the development of pulp luffa cclindrica and its characterization paper (annual plant fiber of the family cucurbitaceae). baking at soda helps to achieve a high level of delignification (kappa ≤ 10) and high yield (≈ 67%).the beatability stack valley is comparable to refined wood fibers, the fibers develop a normally time with good hydrophilic properties without excess...

in this study, the main papermaking characteristics of soybean straw (glycine max) as an agricultural residue were investigated. the fiber biometry and chemical composition of soybean straw were determined. the properties of pulps from soda, soda-aq and monoethanolamine (mea) processes were compared. the average fiber length, fiber diameter, lumen diameter, and cell wall thickness were found to...

wood resources, non-wood plants and recycled papers are the common raw materials of papermaking. shortage of raw materials, is a challenging problem in developing pulp and paper industry. in this study, cladophora green algae was used as a new source of cellulosic fiberfor pulping and papermaking.. cladophora algae was cooked with cold soda method and then was mixed with nssc pulp at 10,20 and ...

The black liquor (BL) obtained by straw pulping can hardly be applied to conventional alkali recovery systems because of its high concentration silicon and viscosity. Soda-oxygen synchronously deposit silica on the surface cellulose reduce content viscosity BL remarkably. In this paper, BLs wheat soda-oxygen at different end points (pH < 10, 11.5 pH 12) soda-anthraquinone (soda-AQ) were obtaine...
