Kraft and sulphite wood pulps are good substrates for enzymatic sugars production. Drying is a necessary step in commercial pulp, cardboard and paper products manufacturing. During drying significant changes occur in the structure of cellulose fibers. It is associated with compression and hornification processes, which have a significant effect on fiber properties. The aim of the work was to evaluate the effect of wood pulp drying on its enzymatic hydrolysability. Softwood and hardwood kraft pulps, softwood sulphi...
