The high price of raw material and the global and competitive pulp market is a combination that creates an additional challenge for the Nordic softwood pulping industry. During conventional kraft pulping, less than half of the raw material ends up in the pulp. In order to reduce carbohydrate losses while producing a bleachable-grade pulp, this work investigated different aspects that effect the degradation and dissolution behavior of Scots pine polysaccharides, as well as delignification. Emphasis was put on the effect of liquor alkali concentration and pulping temperature. Under alkaline conditions, considerable polysaccharide losses occurred during the initial pulping or heating-up phase. Increases in the liquor alkali concentration at c...
