Effect of prehydrolysis on pulping and bleaching of Acacia auriculiformis A. Cunn. ex Benth.
Prehydrolysis prior to pulping shows a beneficial effect in subsequent delignification and bleaching. Prehydrolysis of Acacia auriculiformis produced higher pulp yield in soda and soda-anthraquinone processes at similar kappa number than non-prehydrolyzed kraft process. In D0EpD1 bleaching sequences...
