The deinking of MOW is examined at laboratorial scale. The effect of deinking aids, pre-washing and mixing are studied. The operating conditions during pulp treatment affect the pulp and paper properties, interfering with the mechanism of ink removal and modifying the ink particle characteristics. Pre-washing the pulp facilitates the deinking process. Cellulolytic enzymes and deinking chemicals are comparable in terms of ink removal ability. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to characterize the enzymatic deinking of various types of waste paper. Studies on the optimization of enzymatic deinking have been performed previously using commercially available enzyme preparations containing cellulase and hemicellulase. The enzymatic deinking of different types of waste paper demonstrated a high efficiency of 86.6% on laser-printed paper, but a low deinking efficiency of 12.9% was obtained with newspaper. All enzymatic treatments significantly improved the drainage rate of the deinked waste paper. Enzymatic deinking increased the tensile index of magazine paper but reduced the tensile index of bubble jet-printed paper, photocopy paper and newspaper. Enzymatic hydrolysis caused a 21.1% reduction in the tear index for bubble jet-printed paper, but a 3.1% increase in the tear index was obtained for laser-printed paper relative to respective blank. In addition, enzymatic hydrolysis increased the burst index by 4.7% relative to blank for laser-printed paper. However, photocopy paper showed the highest reduction (8.3%) in the burst index relative to blank. Taken together, these results suggest that enzymatic hydrolysis is both advantageous and detrimental to the mechanical properties of deinked paper. Thus, the proper regulation of enzymatic hydrolysis is crucial to improve the quality of recycled paper. 相似文献

Biological deinking of inkjet-printed paper using Vibrio alginolyticus and its enzymes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Recycling of office waste paper (photocopy, inkjet, and laser prints) is a major problem due to difficulty in removal of nonimpact
ink. Biological deinking of office waste paper is reported using several microorganisms and their enzymes. We report here
deinking and decolorization of the dislodged ink particles from inkjet printed paper pulp by a marine bacterium, Vibrio alginolyticus isolate no. NIO/DI/32, obtained from marine sediments. Decolorization of this pulp was achieved within 72 h by growing the
bacterium in the pulp of 3–6% consistency suspended in seawater. Immobilized bacterial cells in sodium alginate beads were
also able to decolorize this pulp within 72 h. The cell-free culture supernatant of the bacterium grown in nutrient broth
was not effective in deinking. However, when the culture was grown in nutrient broth supplemented with starch or Tween 80,
the cell-free culture supernatant could effectively deink and decolorize inkjet-printed paper pulp within 72 h at 30°C. The
culture supernatant of V. alginolyticus grown in the presence of starch or Tween 80 showed 49 U ml−1 and 33 U ml−1 amylase and lipase activities, respectively. Dialysis of these culture supernatants through 10 kDa cut-off membrane resulted
in a 35–40% reduction in their efficiency in decolorizing the pulp. It appears that amylase and lipase effectively help in
dislodging the ink particles from the inkjet printed-paper pulp. We hypothesize that the bacterium might be inducing the formation
of low molecular weight free radicals in the culture medium, which might be responsible for decolorization of the pulp. 相似文献

Two enzymatic extracts obtained from xylan-grown Aspergillus terreus CCMI 498 and cellulose-grown Trichoderma viride CCMI 84 were characterised for different glycanase activities. Both strains produce extracellular endoxylanase and endoglucanase enzymes. The enzymes optimal activity was found in the temperature range of 45–60 °C. Endoglucanase systems show identical activity profiles towards temperature, regardless of the strain and inducing substrate. Conversely, the endoxylanases produced by both strains showed maximal activity at different pH values (from 4.5 to 5.5), being the more acidic xylanase produced by T. viride grown on cellulose. The endoglucanase activities have an optimum pH at 4.5–5.0. The endoxylanase and endoglucanase activities exhibited high stability at 50 °C and pH 5.0. Mannanase, β-xylosidase, and amylase activities were also found, being the first two activities only present for T. viride extract. These two enzymatic extracts were used for mixed office wastepaper (MOW) deinking. When the enzymatic extract from T. viride was used, a further increase of 24% in ink removal was obtained by comparison with the control. Both enzymes contributed to the improvement of the paper strength properties and the obtained results clearly indicate that the effective use of enzymes for deinking can also contribute to the pulp and paper properties improvement. 相似文献

A screening of different strains of bacteria for the production of lipases which degrade the soy bean oil based binder component of newsprint ink was performed. Three strains were found to be efficient lipase producers and were selected for further investigations. The pH optimum, temperature stability and the optimum enzyme concentrations for the deinking of recovered paper printed with soy bean oil based ink were determined and compared with a commercially available porcine pancreas lipase preparation. A lipase preparation from Pseudomonas aeruginosa with a pH optimum and temperature stability suitable for an application in a deinking process and with a high deinking efficiency in combination with a neutral surfactant could be identified. The deinking effect of the lipases was caused by a partial degradation of the binder of the soy bean oil based inks thereby releasing the ink particles from the paper. 相似文献

The use of enzymes has been suggested as an environmentally friendly alternative to complement conventional chemical deinking
in the recycling of recovered paper. This study compares the use of cellulases/hemicellulases versus the laccase-mediator
system for deinking printed fibers from newspapers and magazines. For this purpose, two commercial enzyme preparations with
endoglucanase and endoxylanase activities (Viscozyme Wheat from Aspergillus oryzae and Ultraflo L from Humicola insolens, Novozymes) and a commercial laccase (NS51002 from Trametes villosa, Novozymes), the latter in the presence of synthetic or natural (lignin-related) mediators, were evaluated. The enzymatic
treatments were studied at the laboratory scale using a standard chemical deinking sequence consisting of a pulping stage;
an alkaline stage using NaOH, sodium silicate and fatty acid soap; and a bleaching stage using hydrogen peroxide. The handsheets
were then prepared and their brightness, residual ink concentration, and strength properties were measured. Among the different
enzymatic treatments assayed, both carbohydrate hydrolases were found to deink the secondary fibers more efficiently. Brightness
increased up to 3–4% ISO on newspaper fibers, being Ultraflo 20% more efficient in the ink removal. Up to 2.5% ISO brightness
increase was obtained when magazine fibers were used, being Viscozyme 9% more efficient in the ink removal. Regarding the
laccase-mediator system, alone or in combination with carbohydrate hydrolases, it was ineffective in deinking both newspaper
and magazine fibers, resulting in pulps with worse brightness and residual ink concentration values. However, pulp deinking
by the laccase-mediator system was displayed when secondary fibers from printed cardboard were used, obtaining up to 3% ISO
brightness increase and lower residual ink concentrations. 相似文献

This work investigated the effect of a chelator-mediated bio-mimetic free radical treatment on repulping and flotation operations during the deinking of laser printed copy paper. A chelator-mediated free radical treatment was carried out at two different chemical levels and a two-step repulping method, which combined conventional alkaline repulping as well as free radical treatment, was also developed. Flotation trials were performed on each of these treated samples to separate ink particles. Results from image analysis and paper physical properties testing are presented, and the deinking efficiency for these different treatments is also compared. Results indicate that under properly controlled conditions, free radical treatment can perform better than conventional chemical deinking methods. 相似文献

Background
The development in the deinking process has made recycled fiber a major part of the raw material for pulp and paper industry. Enzymes have revolutionized the deinking process obtaining brightness levels surpassing conventional deinking processes. This study explores the deinking efficiencies of bacterial alkalophilic laccase (L) and xylanase (X) enzymes along with physical deinking methods of microwaving (MW) and sonication (S) for recycling of old newsprint (ONP).Methods and Results
The operational parameters viz. enzyme dose, pH and treatment time for X and L deinking were optimized statistically using Response Surface Methodology. Laccase did not require any mediator supplementation for deinking. Deinking of ONP pulp with a combination of xylanase and laccase enzymes was investigated, and fiber surface composition and morphological changes were studied using X-ray diffraction, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Compared to the pulp deinked with xylanase (47.9%) or laccase (62.2%) individually, the percentage reduction of effective residual ink concentration (ERIC) was higher for the combined xylanase/laccase-deinked pulp (65.8%). An increase in brightness (21.6%), breaking length (16.5%), burst factor (4.2%) tear factor (6.9%), viscosity (13%) and cellulose crystallinity (10.3%) along with decrease in kappa number (22%) and chemical consumption (50%) were also observed. Surface appeared more fibrillar along with changes in surface functional groups. A combination of physical and enzymatic processes (S-MW-XL) for deinking further improved brightness (28.8%) and decreased ERIC (73.9%) substantially.Conclusion
This is the first report on deinking of ONP with laccase without any mediator supplementation. XL pretreatment resulted in marked improvement in paper quality and a new sequence being reported for deinking (S-MW-XL) will contribute further in decreasing chemical consumption and making the process commercially feasible. 相似文献9.
The protocol for the enzymatic deinking of laser printed waste papers on a laboratory scale using cellulase (C) and hemicellulase (H) of Aspergillus niger (Amano) was developed as an effective method for paper recycling. A maximum deinking efficiency of almost 73% by the enzyme combination of C:H was obtained using the deinking conditions of pulping consistency of 1.0% (w/v) with the pulping time of 1.0min, temperature of 50 degrees C, pH=3.5, agitation rate of 60rpm, pulp concentration of 4% (w/v), concentration of each enzyme of 2.5U/g air dried pulp and the enzyme ratio of 1:1. The deinking efficiency was further enhanced to 95% using the optimized flotation system consisting of pH=6.0, Tween 80 of concentration 0.5% (w/w), working air flow rate of 10.0L/min and temperature of 45 degrees C. The deinked papers were found to exhibit properties comparable to the commercial papers suggesting the effectiveness of the enzymatic process developed. 相似文献

Effect of surfactant and particle size reduction on hydrolysis of deinking sludge and nonrecyclable newsprint 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Disposal of sludge from deinking mills represents a significant proportion of operating costs. Bioconversion of the cellulosic fraction of deinking sludge (DIS) to ethanol greatly reduces disposal costs while producing an environmentally friendly fuel. In this study, the cellulosic fraction of newsprint and deinking sludge was hydrolysed to produce fermentable sugars. For newsprint, a particle size of 1 to 1.5 mm provided optimal reaction rates in batch reactors over practical hydrolysis times, and reducing sugar concentrations as high as 35 g/L could be achieved using a fed-batch reactor configuration. For both newsprint and DIS, the hydrolysis rate increased nonlinearly with enzyme loading. Tween-80 only marginally improved sugar production but was able to release sugars from cellulosic substrates in the absence of lytic enzymes, in an amount proportional to the surfactant concentration and the substrate particle size. DIS was relatively recalcitrant to enzymatic hydrolysis, possibly due in part to inhibition by hydrophobic constituents. (c) 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Optical and Paramagnetic Properties of Size-Controlled Ink Particles Isolated from Sepia officinalis
《Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry》2013,77(12):2790-2792
The optical and paramagnetic properties of size-controlled ink particles isolated from ink sacs of Sepia officinalis were investigated. Topographic images of atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed that the average heights of the large and small ink particles were 156 nm and 5.3 nm respectively. The ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) spectral features of aqueous solutions of ink particles were dependent on particle size. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra suggested that the ink particles are highly pure for paramagnetic species and are of reliable quality. These size-controlled ink particles are suitable for a basic study of melanin-related materials. 相似文献

Deinking of old newsprint (ONP) by combining hemicellulase with laccase-mediator system (LMS) was investigated, and surface chemical composition and fiber morphology changes during the deinking process were studied by electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), contact angle (CA), attenuated total reflectance fourier transform infrared spectrometry (ATR-FTIR), fiber quality analyzer (FQA), and environmental scanning electronic microscopy (ESEM). Results showed that, compared to the pulp deinked with hemicellulase or LMS individually, effective residual ink concentration (ERIC) was lower for the hemicellulase/LMS-deinked pulp. This indicated that there is a synergistic deinking effect between hemicellulase and LMS. It was found that O/C ratio of the fiber surface increased and the surface coverage of lignin decreased during the hemicellulase/LMS deinking process. The contact angle of the hemicellulase/LMS-deinked pulp was lower than that of pulps deinked with each individual enzyme. ESEM observations showed that more fibrils appeared on the fiber surface due to synergistic treatment. 相似文献

In additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, material is deposited drop by drop, to create micron to macroscale layers. A typical inkjet ink is a colloidal dispersion containing approximately ten components including solvent, the nano to micron scale particles which will comprise the printed layer, polymeric dispersants to stabilize the particles, and polymers to tune layer strength, surface tension and viscosity. To rationally and efficiently formulate such an ink, it is crucial to know how the components interact. Specifically, which polymers bond to the particle surfaces and how are they attached? Answering this question requires an experimental procedure that discriminates between polymer adsorbed on the particles and free polymer. Further, the method must provide details about how the functional groups of the polymer interact with the particle. In this protocol, we show how to employ centrifugation to separate particles with adsorbed polymer from the rest of the ink, prepare the separated samples for spectroscopic measurement, and use Diffuse Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (DRIFTS) for accurate determination of dispersant/particle bonding mechanisms. A significant advantage of this methodology is that it provides high level mechanistic detail using only simple, commonly available laboratory equipment. This makes crucial data available to almost any formulation laboratory. The method is most useful for inks composed of metal, ceramic, and metal oxide particles in the range of 100 nm or greater. Because of the density and particle size of these inks, they are readily separable with centrifugation. Further, the spectroscopic signatures of such particles are easy to distinguish from absorbed polymer. The primary limitation of this technique is that the spectroscopy is performed ex-situ on the separated and dried particles as opposed to the particles in dispersion. However, results from attenuated total reflectance spectra of the wet separated particles provide evidence for the validity of the DRIFTS measurement. 相似文献

Modified cellulase with polyoxyethylene was applied to de-ink waste papers and the weight ratio of modified cellulase to paper was varied from 0.05 to 2% (w/w). During mechanical pulping, the cellulase enhanced the detachment of the ink particle from the paper by partial hydrolysis of the fiber. Polyoxyethylene caused foaming and removed the detached ink particles by floatation. The new biological de-inking process improved the physical properties while maintaining the same de-inking ability. Reprocessed paper freeness, whiteness, and tensile strength increased by 31%, 13%, and 24%, respectively. 相似文献

Paper manufacturing industries depend mainly on forests for wood, which is the basic raw material. Forest plays an important role in balancing the ecosystem to protect forest deinking and bleaching (recycling) of waste paper had gained a lot of importance. Conventional chemical deinking processes require large amount of chemicals which are toxic and hazardous to the environment, hence other effective deinking methods are needed. Enzymatic deinking (cellulolytic, hemicellulolytic and ligninolytic) has attracted enormous attention because of high efficacy and minimum environmental impact. For bleaching, enzymatic action (individual as well as in combination), along with physical treatment, makes the pulp more accessible to the chemicals and also to the amount of chemicals required to obtain similar levels of brightness. Strength properties and brightness of the pulp are improved by these treatment methods. With minimum impact on the environment, this review gives comprehensive information about the various methods used for the recycling of waste paper. 相似文献

The effective treatment and utilization of biowaste have been emphasized in our society for environmental and economic concerns. Recently, the eggshell waste in the poultry industry has been highlighted because of its reclamation potential. This study presents an economical treatment process to recover useful bioproducts from eggshell waste and their utilization in commercial products. We developed the dissolved air floatation (DAF) separation unit, which successfully recovered 96% of eggshell membrane and 99% of eggshell calcium carbonate (ECC) particles from eggshell waste within 2 h of operation. The recovered ECC particles were utilized as coating pigments for ink-jet printing paper and their impact on the ink density and paper gloss were investigated. The addition of the ECC particles as coating pigments enhances the optical density of cyan, magenta and yellow inks while decreasing the black ink density and the gloss of the coated paper. 相似文献

Enzymatic Modification of Paper Fibres 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The enzymatic mode of action in paper fibre upgrading is still uncertain. In an attempt to clarify how enzymes modify pulp and paper properties, several parameters were analysed in the present work: (i) thermal analysis of the water-solid surface interactions; (ii) fibre cake permeability; (iii) particle size analysis. The results obtained suggest that enzymes modify the interfacial properties of fibres, increasing the water affinity, which in turn change the technical properties of pulp and paper, such as drainability and strength. The modification of paper and pulps following a treatment with cellulose-binding domains further supports this hypothesis. 相似文献

Recent benthic foraminiferal assemblages in deep high-energy environments from the Gulf of Cadiz (Spain) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Joachim Schnfeld 《Marine Micropaleontology》2002,44(3-4)
The benthic environment in the Gulf of Cadiz, north-eastern Atlantic, is strongly affected by the Mediterranean outflow water undercurrent (MOW) which flows northwards along the western Iberian Margin at 500–1500 m water depth. Foraminiferal census counts of living and dead assemblages from 27 surface samples ranging from 103 to 1917 m water depth, and the examination of hard substrates reveal a close correlation of the fauna with the local hydrography and sediment facies. Four different faunal groups are separated by factor analysis of the living fauna. Assemblage 1 contains typical lower slope species and dominates samples from the lower MOW core layer and in the North Atlantic deep water below. Shelf edge foraminifera are common in assemblage 2a which shows the highest proportions in samples from 103 to 272 m. Assemblage 2b is dominated by upper slope species and suspension-feeders that are frequent in the upper MOW core layer and in distal settings between 396 and 901 m. Species from assemblage 3 prefer epibenthic habitats and are recorded with high proportions exclusively in the immediate flow paths of the upper MOW between 496 and 881 m. Colonisation structures and species composition of epibenthic assemblages from the proximal facies largely differ from those in distal settings. In general, epibenthic foraminifers only use elevated substrates under the influence of near-bottom flow. Under high current velocities, epibenthic foraminifers prefer large and heavy objects. They colonise high attachment levels where a maximum yield of advected food particles can be achieved. In distal settings at lower flow velocities, the elevation height does not exceed 20 mm above the surrounding sediment surface. This level is related to a hydrologic transition layer with high concentrations of suspended particles. The comparison of microhabitat preferences and faunal structure under high and low current velocities reveal that substrate stability may be a confining environmental variable for endobenthic and shallow epibenthic foraminifers. The observations also indicate that the preferential settling height of epibenthic foraminifera is related to the highest lateral flux rates of food particles within reach from the sea floor. A dynamic selection of elevated microhabitats is only used by 7.8% of all species recognised in the Gulf of Cadiz area. 相似文献

In a previous paper (Marmarelis et al. 1986) we presented the concept of minimum-order Wiener (MOW) modeling of continuous-input/spike-output (CISO) systems. The associated MOW methodology aims at obtaining low-order Wiener models for CISO systems of practical interest. The assertion was made that many neurophysiological systems that fall in this class can be studied effectively by the use of this method. We have chosen a sensory system to demonstrate the efficacy of the method with actual experimental data. The response of retinal ganglion cells to spatiotemporal visual stimuli was studied with this approach and a second-order MOW model was obtained. The results appear to corroborate the adequacy of this model in terms of predicting the timing of the output spikes. 相似文献
