Water pre-hydrolysis prior to lignin removal and the production of kraft or Soda-AQ cooking contributed fibers with high strength properties. to a yield increase of approximately Transforming kraft pulping into 20% relative to carbohydrate yield of biorefinery concepts is, however, very dissolving pulp production. The removal challenging because the hemicelluloses of hemicelluloses after alkaline pulping and other carbohydrates are degraded by means of cold caustic extraction into low molecular weight hydroxyl- (CCE) allows the production of high carboxylic acids which are very difficult yield dissolving pulps also equally to recover as pure substances. Quite applicable as paper and dissolving recently, we have proposed the concept pulps. The resulting xylan-containing of multifunctional alkaline cooking lye has been recycled to Soda-AQ which allows the selective removal of pulping contributing to a 2-4% yield short-chain carbohydrates by pre- and increase by xylan-reprecipitation. post-treatment processes.
