A method for preparing unbleached biomechanical pulp from straw. Straw is used as a raw material, which is firstly pre-treated with hot water and hot steam, added with a small amount of alkali, and then softened by saturation with hot water, enzymatically treated by adding alkaline biological enzymes, refined, and washed. This method has the advantage that the whole production process does not need alkali recovery, thereby avoiding environmental pollution from the source. This technology conforms to the national industrial policy of resource conservation, economic recycling, energy saving and emission reduction. The present invention overcomes the problems of difficulty in recovering the alkali wastewater accompanying straw pulp and serious pollution in the prior art. This is of great significance for the industrial production of straw pulp and the development of the paper industry.

The invention relates to a method for the treatment and utilization of waste liquor containing at least polyester degradation products and originating from an alkaline pulping process for the extraction of cellulose raw material from blended textile waste which contains at least a cellulose component and a polyester component. In order to make the method environmentally friendlier and more resource-efficient, it is proposed that the method comprises the following steps: the evaporation of water from the waste liquor in order to precipitate the polyester degradation product from the waste liquor and to obtain a two-phase mixture having an aqueous phase and a solid phase including the polyester degradation product, b) the separation of the solid phase from the liquid phase, and c) the thermal/energetic utilization of the solid phase.

A method for controlling discharges of nitrogen compounds in the production of cellulose carbamate (CCA). Dissolving pulp (DP) or kraft pulp is produced at a pulp mill, and the DP or kraft pulp is activated. The activated pulp is reacted with urea to produce cellulose carbamate whereby ammonia is released. The cellulose carbamate production is integrated into the pulp mill having a flue gas system such that carbon dioxide from the flue gases is reacted with released ammonia to produce urea, which is used in the carbamate production.

The present invention provides for a method to produce a sugar compound from a biomass, the method comprising: (a) providing a first mixture comprising a solubilized biomass and an alkanolamine; (b) recovering at least part of the alkanolamine from the first mixture in order to separate the at least part of the alkanolamine from the first mixture; (c) optionally introducing an enzyme and/or a microbe to the first mixture such that the enzyme and/or microbe produce a sugar from the solubilized biomass; and, (d) optionally the sugar is separated from the first mixture.

The invention herein disclosed and claimed is a process for refining fiber from lignocellulosic biomass. The process provides refined fiber and agriculturally amenable co-products, with a virtually waste-free systems design.
