4. CHARACTERISTICS OF SOME HYDROLYTIC ENZYMES AND BIOPULPING POTENTIAL OF FUNGAL ISOLATES FROM SELECTED WOOD SAMPLES IN SOUTHWESTERN NIGERIA

84 Student Researchers

Abstract

Pulping industry is both labour and energy intensive but in Nigeria, electricity supply is unstable. This has contributed to the near collapse of the Nigerian paper and pulp industry despite the rich forest resources in southwestern Nigeria. Use of alternative energy sources such as electricity generating sets further increases production cost. It therefore, becomes pertinent to seek alternative approach aimed at reducing mechanical pulping duration and improving pulp chara...
