Abstract: The present invention provides a hydrolysate of a lignocellulosic material, and specifically a method of using a hydrolysis treatment liquid obtained by a hydrolysis treatment of a lignocellulosic material before kraft cooking in order to obtain dissolving pulp for uses other than use of a fuel. Specifically, the present invention provides a dispersant containing the hydrolysate obtained by hydrolysis treatment of the lignocellulosic material. The dispersant of the present invention has excellent dispersibility for a substance such as an inorganic substance and an organic substance without limitation of powder, particulate, granular, fiber, and flat plane shapes.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a technique for preparing feedstuffs for ruminants with high nutritional value or feed efficiency. A process for preparing a feedstuff for ruminants of the present invention comprises: suspending a lignocellulosic material as a raw material in a liquid to give a pulp; processing the resulting pulp in a pressure type solid-liquid separator; and preparing a feedstuff containing the pulp subjected to solid-liquid separation.

Abstract: Provided is a method which is capable of producing a cellulose nanofiber dispersion liquid that has a low viscosity and excellent fluidity even at a high concentration, while exhibiting excellent transparency. In a method for producing cellulose nanofibers, wherein a cellulosic starting material is oxidized in water using an oxidant in the presence of an N-oxyl compound and a compound that is selected from the group consisting of a bromide, an iodide and a mixture thereof and the thus obtained oxidized cellulose is defibrated and dispersed, pulp which is obtained by carrying out kraft cooking after a hydrolysis process is used as the cellulosic starting material.

Abstract: Provided is a method which comprises a process of having an anion-modified cellulose nanofiber dispersion contain monovalent or divalent metal ions. Consequently, the fluidity of an anion-modified cellulose nanofiber dispersion obtained thereby is improved.

Abstract: The first invention aims to provide a method for preparing stiffer bulky pulp at a freeness level comparable to that obtained by mechanical treatments to improve the bulkiness of product paper by searching for a method capable of adjusting freeness while suppressing damage to pulp fibers and internal fibrillation in a process for producing pulp. The second invention aims to strip contaminants deposited on pulp fibers and/or inorganic particles to reduce adhesion of the contaminants and decrease microorganisms in a treatment of process water containing long pulp fiber fractions used in a process for producing pulp and paper, thereby clarifying process water and thus preparing high-quality pulp and paper.

Abstract: A papermaking raw material processor capable of reforming pulp in papermaking a process using cavitation includes a first pump 5 jets jet liquid and second pump 6 jets suspension containing; e.g., pulp fibers into a processing unit inside which cavitation is generated by generation of a jet stream. Inside processing unit 2, a jet stream generates cavitation to carry out a reforming processing in which ink, or the like, is removed from the fibers by a blast resulting from collapse of cavitation bubbles generated there. The liquid after reforming processing is returned to second tank 4, except for a part of it fed to downstream steps, while the suspension is processed, as circulated between processing unit 2 and second tank 6.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing deinked pulp from recovered paper containing stickies while preventing excessive reduction in the size of stickies, lowering the COD of effluents, and producing deinked pulp with a smaller residual ink content. In the ink detachment stage of the process for producing deinked pulp from recovered paper containing stickies, an anhydride of crystalline layered silicate is added, preferably in an amount of 0.1-1.5 weight % of absolute-dry pulp, and a deinking treatment is performed at a pH of 7.0-9.9. In the present invention, the deinking treatment is performed in a weakly alkaline to neutral region which is generally said to be effective in reducing the amount of stickies but less effective in ink detachment and, yet, deinked pulp having a smaller amount of residual ink can be produced.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide cellulose-based fibrous materials for obtaining papers and sheets having low density, high surface quality, good size stability despite of high strength, and high opacity. Cellulose-based fibrous materials having external fibrils consisting of an assembly of scale-like microfibrils exhibit a higher fiber stiffness, a lower water retention value and a higher specific surface area as compared with fibrous materials having filamentous external fibrils at the same freeness. Papers and sheets having low density, high surface quality, good size stability and high opacity can be obtained by using such fibrous materials.
