Abstract

Protein-degrading enzymes are used to suppress or inhibit the degradation of hydrogen peroxide by enzymes during a cellulose fibre bleaching process. A cellulose treatment and/or bleaching process with hydrogen peroxide in which protein-degrading enzymes are used to suppress or prevent degradation by enzymes such as catalase is also claimed. The enzymes are proteases.

Description

sw /0 Zf "aO 35 Tillsats av biocider har även föreslagits för att döda rnikroorganismema och förhindra katalasbildning. Biocider är hälsofarliga och olämpliga ur niiljösynpunlct. sw / 0 Zf "aO 35 Addition of biocides has also been proposed to kill the micro-organisms and prevent catalase formation. Biocides are hazardous to health and unsuitable from an environmental point of view.

Närvarande metalljoner, t ex jäm, mangan, koppar och aluminium bryter ned väteperoxid.Metal ions present, such as iron, manganese, copper and aluminum, break down hydrogen peroxide.

För att förhindra detta används idag kelatkomplexbildare och natriumsilikat. Silikater tenderar att sätta igen utrustningen vid massahanteringen och komplexbildarna är dyra och ibland farliga att använda. Deras inverkan på miljön är starkt ifrågasatt och ej utredd.To prevent this, chelating agents and sodium silicate are currently used. Silicates tends to clog the equipment in pulp handling and the complexing agents are expensive and sometimes dangerous to use. Their impact on the environment is strongly questioned and not investigated.

Genom EP O 562 835 är det känt att använda små mängder av klordioxid, brom, klor, jod och ozon som oxiderande, enzyminaktiverande och bakteriedödande medel vid blekning av cellulosamassa med väteperoxid. Enligt utföringsexempel 3 i beskrivningen dödas mikroorganismema i bakvatten med klordioxid. Klordioxid är en giftig, explosiv, korrosiv och svårhanterlig substans, som lätt sönderfaller och måste tillverkas i blekeriet och förvaras där utspädd.From EP 0 562 835 it is known to use small amounts of chlorine dioxide, bromine, chlorine, iodine and ozone as oxidizing, enzyme inactivating and bactericidal agents in bleaching cellulose pulp with hydrogen peroxide. According to Embodiment 3 of the description, killed the microorganisms in the backwater with chlorine dioxide. Chlorine dioxide is a toxic, explosive, corrosive and difficult-to-handle substance, which decomposes easily and must be manufactured in the bleaching plant and stored where diluted.

G. Galland, E. Bemard, Y. Verac föreslår i "Achieving a deinked pulp with high brightness" i Paper Technology, december 1989 olika sätt att öka ljusheten vid bearbetning av returpapper genom att minska förbrukningen av väteperoxid, Det föreslås bland annat att katalas tages bort genom att rnikroorganismerna, som utvecklar enzymet, elimineras eller att katalas förstöres före blekningen. För att förstöra katalas användes t ex en behandling med natriumhypoklorit. Natriumhypoklorit är dock en olämplig substans för miljön.G. Galland, E. Bemard, Y. Verac propose in "Achieving a deinked pulp with high brightness" in Paper Technology, December 1989 different ways to increase the brightness when processing recycled paper by reducing the consumption of hydrogen peroxide, It is proposed, among other things, that catalase be taken by eliminating or catalyzing the micro-organisms that develop the enzyme destroyed before bleaching. To destroy catalase, for example, a treatment was used sodium hypochlorite. However, sodium hypochlorite is an unsuitable substance for the environment.

I princip innebär förfarandena enligt de två publikationema att man använder de miljöfarliga blekmedlen, som man numer försöker undvika, i mindre mängder för att döda mikroorganismer och inaktivera enzymet.In principle, the procedures according to the two publications involve the use of the environmentally hazardous bleach, which is now being avoided, in small quantities to kill microorganisms and inactivate the enzyme.

Enligt föreliggande uppfinning föreslås användning av substanser som genom sin förmåga att bryta ner proteiner undertrycker eller inhiberar den nedbrytande verkan som vissa enzymer såsom peroxidaser, katalas m fl har på väteperoxid vid blekning av cellulosafibrer med väteperoxid.According to the present invention it is proposed to use substances which by their ability to breaking down proteins suppresses or inhibits the degrading action of certain enzymes such as peroxidases, catalase, etc. have on hydrogen peroxide when bleaching cellulose fibers with hydrogen peroxide.

Dessa substanser är proteolytiska enzym (proteaser) d v s ämnen som utmärker sig genom sin fömiåga att spjälka proteiner. Då peroxidaser och katalas är proteiner kommer de att inaktiveras genom att de bryts ner då de kommer i kontakt med proteaserna. /0 X5' 763 Uppfinningen beskrivs genom följande icke begränsande utföringsexempel.These substances are proteolytic enzymes (proteases), ie substances that are distinguished by its ability to cleave proteins. Since peroxidases and catalase are proteins, they will inactivated by breaking them down when they come in contact with the proteases. / 0 X5 ' 763 The invention is described by the following non-limiting exemplary embodiments.

Exempel l. Katalasinhiberande verkan av det proteolytiska enzymet subtilisin.Example 1. Catalase inhibitory action of the proteolytic enzyme subtilisin.

Fyra lösningar gjordes: l. 83,6 mg/l katalas i vatten. Denna kyldes till O°C. 2. 83,6 mg/l katalas i vatten, 3. 83,6 mg/l katalas och 2,6 mg/l subtilisin. 4. 83,6 mg/1 katalas och 13,2 mg/l subtilisin.Four solutions were made: l. 83.6 mg / l catalase in water. This was cooled to 0 ° C. 2. 83.6 mg / l catalase in water, 3. 83.6 mg / l catalase and 2.6 mg / l subtilisin. 4. 83.6 mg / l catalase and 13.2 mg / l subtilisin.

Lösning 2, 3 och 4 tempererades till 30°C. Eñer lO, 30, 50 och 70 min inkubering togs 100 ul ut av de fyra lösningarna och blandades med 2,9 ml O, l% väteperoxidlösning som var buffrad med fosfat till pH 7.Solutions 2, 3 and 4 were tempered to 30 ° C. One 10, 30, 50 and 70 min incubation was taken 100 μl out of the four solutions and mixed with 2.9 ml of 0.1% hydrogen peroxide solution which was buffered with phosphate to pH 7.

Nedbrytningshastigheten av väteperoxiden mättes sedan med en spektrofotometer vid 256 nm och framgår av diagram där nedbrytningshastigheten mätt som absorbansändring/sekund på y-axeln är angiven mot inkuberingstiden i minuter på x-axeln.The decomposition rate of the hydrogen peroxide was then measured with a spectrophotometer at 256 nm and is shown in diagrams where the degradation rate measured as absorbance change / second on the y-axis is indicated against the incubation time in minutes on the x-axis.

Som framgår av diagrammet är nedbrytningshastigheten ca 1,7 milliabsorbansenheter/sek med lösning l och 2 medan den har sjunkit till ca 1,5 med lösning 3 och till ca 1,2 med lösning 4, alla mätta efter 70 min.As can be seen from the diagram, the degradation rate is about 1.7 milliabsorbent units / sec with solution 1 and 2 while it has dropped to about 1.5 with solution 3 and to about 1.2 with solution 4, all saturated after 70 min.
