REMOVAL OF HEMICELLULOSES BY NaOH PRE-EXTRACTION FROM ASPEN CHIPS PRIOR TO MECHANICAL PULPING
Hemicelluloses can be removed from wood chips prior to mechanical pulping, which would offer new feedstocks for the production of chemicals and fuels. The aim of this study was to evaluate pre-extraction to maximize pre-extraction yield, while minimizing negative impacts on wood chips. The effects o...
