Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing mechanical pulp. It also relates to a composition implemented during this process and to the use of this composition in a mechanical pulping process. Finally, it relates to a papermaking process.
- Paper pulps called “mechanical pulp” or “high-performance pulps” or “wood pulp” are obtained directly from the wood by a series of mechanical treatments, generally grouped under the name “mechanical refining”, carried out by means of grinding wheels and / or refiners.
- the mechanical paper stock is then subjected to a bleaching phase which may comprise one or more stages depending on the degree of whiteness required.
- the advantage of a mechanical pulping process is its high material yield, compared to a so-called "chemical” pulping process. Indeed, unlike chemical pulping processes in which the lignin present in the raw wood is eliminated almost completely by cooking in the presence of chemicals, about 90% of the raw wood is preserved in the pasta obtained in the pasta. from a process for manufacturing mechanical pulp.
- Mechanical refining of a mechanical pulp manufacturing process typically involves several refining steps, such as primary refining generally referred to as "defibration", secondary refining, tertiary refining, refining of classification rejects, and the like. These refining steps provide pastes with different degrees of refinement, in order to gradually transform the wood into individualized fibers and thus enable the manufacture of paper pulp.
- the document WO 08081078 proposes, for its part, a method for manufacturing mechanical paper pulp comprising an ozone treatment step during refining.
- this treatment has the disadvantage of creating chromophore groups on the polysaccharide molecules contained in the wood, which prove difficult to oxidize when conventional bleaching of the paste is then implemented.
- US 6267841 discloses a process for manufacturing mechanical pulp comprising an enzymatic treatment step implemented between two refining steps or prior to a refining step.
- the enzyme is selected from pectinases, xylanases, laccases, cellulases, manganese peroxidases and mixtures thereof.
- these treatments have the disadvantage of degrading the wood fibers and / or require refining at a high temperature, which limits the energy saving achievable.
- EP 429422 and WO 91/11552 also disclose processes for manufacturing mechanical pulp comprising an enzymatic pretreatment step of a fibrous material to facilitate subsequent refining.
- the redox potential of the described enzymes is adjusted by means of regulators such as nitrogen or oxygen gas, antioxidants, sugars, organic acids or inorganic salts.
- regulators such as nitrogen or oxygen gas, antioxidants, sugars, organic acids or inorganic salts.
- WO 91/11552 it is recommended to carry out the enzymatic pre-treatment below a certain redox potential.
- adjusting the redox potential of the enzymes is a delicate operation to implement and is expensive.
- the document EP 0745 154 describes a method of manufacturing chemical pulp using a multi-component system for the modification, decomposition or decolorization of lignin, comprising in particular an oxidoreductase enzyme, a mediator, a free amine and a oxidizing agent.
- This system is used to whiten a chemical pulp previously delignified with oxygen.
- This system has the drawbacks of generating effluents that are harmful to the environment and to generate high production costs.
- the optimization of the enzymatic activity of laccases has moreover been studied in document US 2008/0189871.
- This document proposes an LMS (Laccase Mediator System) system comprising a mediator derived from 2,6-dimethoxyphenol. This system is implemented to whiten a fabric. It is mentioned, on the one hand, that it can be used during the manufacture of paper pulp and, on the other hand, that it can be used during the bleaching of a pulp.
