Refining merupakan proses untuk memodifikasi serat dengan tujuan meningkatkan ikatan serat dan mengembangkan kekuatan kertas. Penelitian yang telah dilakukan meliputi penentuan kondisi refining dengan PFI Mill dan penentuan kondisi perlakuan awal lakase yang selanjutnya akan diterapkan pada proses biorefining. Jumlah putaran 2500 dari PFI mill merupakan jumlah yang optimum untuk menghasilkan kekuatan pulp Acacia crassicarpa. Sedangkan hasil penelitian kondisi optimum lakase menunjukkan bahwa lakase memiliki laju reaksi yang paling tinggi (0,0018 mM/s) pada suhu 50°C. Pada proses refining, freeness awal pulp adalah sekitar 550 mL CSF, dan ketika dikenakan perlakuan lakase turun menjadi 515 (LMS1) dan 520 (LMS2). Refining pulp tanpa perlakuan enzim menghasilkan indeks tarik, retak dan sobek berturut-turut adalah 6,4.10-2 kNm/g, 5,18 kPa.m2/g, dan 5,96 mN.m2/g. Indeks sobek tidak mengalami perubahan signifikan pada semua perlakuan. Perlakuan LMS1 meningkatkan indeks tarik menjadi 6,83 kNm/g dan indeks sobek menjadi 7,53 mN.m2/g. Indeks tarik dan sobek pada LMS2 menurun dibandingkan LMS1, namun masih lebih tinggi dibandingkan tanpa perlakuan. Dengan demikian perlakuan lakase pada proses refining dapat meningkatkan indeks tarik dan indeks sobek lembaran.Laccase Application in Pulp Refining Process AbstractRefining is a process to modify fibers with the aim of increasing fiber bonds and developing paper strength. The research that has been done includes determining the refining conditions with PFI Mill and determining the conditions of pretreatment of laccase which will then be applied to the biorefining process. The PFI mill revolutions of 2500 is the optimum to produce the strength of the Acacia crassicarpa pulp. Whereas the results of the study showed that optimum laccase conditions showed that laccase had the highest reaction rate (0.0018 mM/s) at 50oC. In the refining process, the initial freeness of the pulp is around 550 mL CSF, and when subjected to laccase treatment it drops to 515 (LMS1) and 520 (LMS2). Refining the pulp without enzyme treatment produced tensile, bursting and tearing indexes of 6.4.10-2 kNm/g, 5.18 kPa.m2/g, and 5.96 mN.m2/g, respectively. The tear index did not change significantly in all treatments. The LMS1 treatment increased the tensile index to 6.83 kNm/g and the tear index to 7.53 mN.m2/g. The tensile and tear index in LMS2 decreased compared to LMS1, but it was still higher than without treatment. Thus, laccase treatment in the refining process can increase the tensile index and tear indexof the sheet.

The utilization of post-consumer papers in the production of new paper products is increasing all over the world in recent years. Recycling of photocopier paper is a major problem due to difficulty in removal of non-impact ink. Enzymes offer potential advantages in ecofriendly deinking of recovered paper. In this study the deinking of photocopier paper was examined using chemicals and a commercial cellulase enzyme. Parameters of deinking experiments were optimized for hydrapulping. The ink was removed by flotation and washing processes. Then these parameters were compared in terms of ink removal ability of the process, as well as optical and strength properties of the deinked paper. The application of enzymatic deinking improved ink removal efficiency by 24.6% and freeness by 21.6% with a reduction in drainage time of 11.5% in comparison to those obtained with chemical deinking. The physical properties, namely burst index and tensile index, were observed to improve by 15.3% and 2.7%, respectively and brightness and tear index decreased by 2.1% and 21.9%, respectively. Results of deinking efficiency of photocopier paper showed that the enzyme used in the present work performed better than the conventional chemicals used for deinking.

The applicability of bleached bamboo kraft pulp (Ba-BKP) was explored as a raw material for the manufacture of nanofibrillated cellulose (EN-NFC) made of enzyme-pretreated pulps and the effects of the EN-NFC on enhancing paper strength. The Ba-BKP was pretreated using an endo-glucanase enzyme at 50 °C and pH 6, after which the EN-NFC was made by micro-grinding. Bleached hardwood kraft pulp (Hw-BKP) was used as a control, and the non-enzymatic refining pretreatment of BKPs was compared with the enzyme pretreatment. The EN-NFC was incorporated into handsheets, and the sheet strengths were measured. The physical properties of the NFC made from the Ba-BKP were similar to those made from the Hw-BKP. The NFC prepared following enzyme pretreatment were smaller and more uniform than those pretreated with refining. The EN-NFC made from the Ba-BKP was effective at enhancing tensile index by 52.7%, and burst index by 210.2% when 2% of EN-NFC was added in the furnish, and those of handsheets containing the EN-NFC made from Hw-BKP showed the similar improvement. Therefore, Ba-BKP can be used as a raw material for the manufacture of EN-NFC that confers similar physical properties and strength enhancement to paper as those made from Hw-BKP.

In this paper, the process of cellulase pretreatment before alkali-oxygen pulping of bagasse was studied. The effect of cellulase pretreatment on subsequent pulping was also researched. The results showed that some small-sized components and sugars dissolved into the effluent in the process of cellulase pretreatment. UV spectroscopy showed that there was no significant lignin content in the pretreatment effluent.It was also found that pulping properties were promoted when the cellulase dosage was 2 ECU/g pulp, in that under the same cooking conditions, pulp kappa number was decreased by 1.3 and pulp brightness was increased by 2.5 %ISO, while the viscosity of pulp also increased slightly. Moreover, the tensile index, tear index and folding endurance were increased by 8%, 7% and 30%, respectively, but burst index showed no significant change. The above results illustrated that cellulase pretreatment was only beneficial to the dissolution of sugars and fine components from bagasse and it was an effective method of promoting alkali-oxygen pulping of bagasse.

This paper deals with cationic modified cellulose fibrils obtained by reacting the cellulose fibrils with 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (EPTMAC). The physical and chemical properties of unmodified cellulose fibrils (UMCF) and cationic modified cellulose fibrils (CMCF) were characterized by SEM, FTIR, degree of substitution, colloid titration, zeta potential, and thermogravimetric analysis. The experimental results showed that, after cationization, surface charge density and zeta potential reversed, thermal stability decreased, and new functional groups appeared, while the surface morphology did not show much difference from the UMCF. With the addition of three kinds of additives (UMCF, CMCF, and cationic starch (CS)) to BCTMP, the addition of UMCF and CMCF had little effect on zeta potential, while the addition of CS changed zeta potential obviously. With the increasing of additive amount, the bulk of paper sheets added CMCF did not change obviously, while the bulk of paper sheets added UMCF and CS decreased rapidly. With regard to physical strength, all the three kinds of additives could improve the tensile index and tear index; the tensile index of paper sheets added CS was higher than that of added UMCF and CMCF, while the tear index of paper sheets added CMCF was the highest among the three additives.
