Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of ramie fiber degumming technology, specifically a green ramie degumming method using acid-base synergistic bio-enzyme assistance. Background Technology
[0002] In the current field of ramie degumming, traditional chemical degumming methods (such as sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide treatment) are highly efficient, but they generate a large amount of wastewater containing high concentrations of chemical residues, causing serious environmental pollution. While biological degumming technology is relatively environmentally friendly, it suffers from low degumming efficiency and long processing time, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale industrial production.
[0003] Meanwhile, the fibers are easily damaged by chemical reagents during the degumming process, resulting in decreased fiber strength and poor color, which affects the quality of the final product. In addition, the quality of ramie raw materials varies greatly from region to region, making it difficult to standardize the degumming process, which further exacerbates the instability of fiber quality.
[0004] Furthermore, ramie degumming technology requires advanced equipment and skilled personnel. Many small and medium-sized enterprises lack the necessary technology and financial support, making it difficult to upgrade their technology. Farmers and growers have limited understanding of degumming technology, resulting in inconsistent initial processing levels of ramie raw materials, which affects the overall efficiency of the industrial chain. Moreover, the lack of effective coordination between ramie planting, degumming, and textile processes leads to resource waste and inefficiency. The shortcomings of degumming technology also limit the application of ramie in high-end textiles and environmentally friendly materials, reducing the added value of ramie products. Therefore, in light of the above situation, there is an urgent need to develop a green ramie degumming method that uses acid-base synergistic bio-enzyme assistance to overcome the current shortcomings in practical applications. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a green degumming method for ramie using an acid-base synergistic bio-enzyme-assisted approach, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A green degumming method for ramie using an acid-base synergistic bio-enzyme-assisted process includes the following steps:
[0008] (1) Raw material preparation: Select ramie raw fibers with a moisture content of ≤12%, cut them to a length of 30-50cm, and mechanically loosen them to achieve a fiber separation degree of more than 85%;
[0009] (2) Acid soaking pretreatment: The raw ramie treated in step (1) is placed in an H2SO4 solution with a mass percentage of 1%-5%, wherein a surfactant is added to the H2SO4 solution for acid soaking treatment;
[0010] (3) Alkali boiling treatment: After washing the ramie fibers after acid soaking in step (2), place them in a NaOH solution with a mass percentage of 2%-6%, wherein the NaOH solution contains sodium silicate with a mass percentage of 2%-3%, and perform alkaline boiling treatment.
[0011] (4) Bio-enzyme-assisted treatment: After washing the ramie fiber after alkali boiling in step (3), place it in an enzyme treatment solution containing pectinase and xylanase for bio-enzyme treatment.
[0012] (5) Post-treatment: Wash the ramie fibers treated with bio-enzymes in step (4) until neutral, and then dry them until the moisture content is ≤8% to complete degumming.
[0013] As a further aspect of the present invention: in step (2), the surfactant is sodium dodecyl sulfonate or sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, and the mass percentage of the surfactant in the H2SO4 solution is 0.1%-0.5%;
[0014] The H2SO4 solution also contains malonic acid and / or oxalic acid, wherein the mass percentage of malonic acid is 1%-3% and the mass percentage of oxalic acid is 0.5%-2%.
[0015] As a further aspect of the present invention: in step (2), the process parameters for acid leaching are as follows:
[0016] The ratio of raw ramie to H2SO4 solution was 1:15, the treatment temperature was 85±2℃, and the treatment time was 30-45 min. Mechanical stirring was used with a stirring speed of 30-60 rpm. The stirring method was intermittent or continuous stirring. When intermittently stirring, stirring was performed for 1 min every 5 min.
[0017] As a further aspect of the present invention: in step (3), the NaOH solution is further supplemented with trisodium phosphate, hydrogen peroxide and / or EDTA, wherein the mass percentage of trisodium phosphate is 2%-5%, the mass percentage of hydrogen peroxide is 1%-3%, and the mass percentage of EDTA is 0.2%-1%.
[0018] As a further aspect of the present invention: in step (3), the process parameters for the alkali boiling treatment are as follows:
[0019] The ratio of ramie fiber to NaOH solution was 1:20, the treatment temperature was 100±2℃, the treatment time was 90-125 min, continuous mechanical stirring was used, the stirring speed was 60-80 rpm, and high-pressure steam was used during the alkaline boiling process, with a pressure of 0.15MPa-0.20MPa.
[0020] As a further aspect of the present invention: in step (4), laccase is also added to the enzyme treatment solution;
[0021] The pectinase activity is 2000-5000 U / g, the xylanase activity is 1000-3000 U / g, and the laccase activity is 500-1000 U / g.
[0022] The process parameters for bio-enzyme treatment are as follows: pH value of enzyme treatment solution is 6-8, treatment temperature is 50±2℃, treatment time is 60min, and treatment method is static soaking.
[0023] As a further aspect of the present invention: after acid immersion treatment in step (2), the ramie fibers are washed with water until the pH value is 6.5-7.0;
[0024] After the alkali boiling treatment in step (3), the ramie fiber is first boiled at 100℃ for 20-25 minutes, and then washed with water until the pH value is 7.0-7.5.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0026] 1. This invention adopts a NaOH-H2SO4 synergistic treatment system, which achieves efficient degumming through a two-step acid-alkali immersion method, with a glue removal rate of >90%, while reducing the amount of alkali used by 20%-30%, resulting in higher fiber quality and significantly improved breaking resistance and wettability.
[0027] At the same time, since the alkali concentration used in this invention is very low, it is advantageous in terms of preventing fiber damage, controlling costs, and environmental protection.
[0028] 2. The multi-component synergistic system introduces organic acids and surfactants in the acid leaching stage and combines sodium silicate, oxidant and chelating agent in the alkaline boiling stage, which significantly improves degumming efficiency; the three-step process of bio-enzyme green treatment reduces the total amount of chemicals used by 40%, which is in line with the trend of environmental protection.
[0029] 3. Through data verification by electron microscopy, mechanical testing and other methods, the fiber performance meets the requirements of high-end textiles (such as medical bandages and high-end clothing); it has strong process compatibility and can be adapted to existing ramie production lines, requiring only the addition of enzyme treatment tanks, resulting in low modification costs;
[0030] 4. In contrast to the existing "alkali first, acid later" treatment method, the "acid first, alkali later" process of this invention opens up the fiber structure by acid first, so that the subsequent alkaline boiling under normal pressure can achieve the same degumming effect, avoiding fiber damage caused by high pressure.
[0031] 5. After optimizing the process flow, the amount of chemicals used was reduced, energy consumption was lowered, production costs were significantly reduced, and the economic benefits of enterprises were improved; the improved degumming technology reduced damage to fibers, improved fiber strength and quality, enabling ramie fibers to better meet the needs of high-end textiles and expand their application in clothing, home furnishings and other fields.
[0032] 6. Degumming treatment removes sticky substances around the fibers, improving their strength and flexibility, making them more suitable for spinning and weaving into textiles, or for use in other industrial production. Attached Figure Description

[0079] Mechanism of action: NaOH primarily degummes the fibers; sodium silicate protects the fibers; hydrogen peroxide oxidizes residual gum; EDTA chelates metal ions to prevent fiber oxidation.
[0080] Treatment effect: The residual glue rate is reduced to below 4% (the residual glue rate of traditional processes is 8%-10%).
[0081] IV. Bio-enzyme-assisted treatment (green efficiency enhancement);

[0083] Process parameters: pH value: 7.5 (adjusted by phosphate buffer); temperature: 50℃±2℃; treatment time: 60min; treatment method: static soaking.
[0084] Processing effect:
[0085] Example 1 (Low-activity enzyme combination): Pectinase 2000U / g + Xylanase 1000U / g + Laccase 500U / g, pectin residue reduced to 2.8%, fiber surface smoothness increased by 25%;
[0086] Example 2 (active enzyme combination): pectinase 3000U / g + xylanase 2000U / g + laccase 800U / g, pectin residue reduced to 1.9%, fiber surface smoothness increased by 30%;

[0090] High-temperature boiling: Boil the bio-enzyme-treated fiber at 100℃ for 20-25 minutes;
[0091] Wash with water: Rinse with neutral water until pH 7.0-7.5 to remove residual chemicals;
[0092] Drying: Dry with hot air at 80℃ until the moisture content is below 8%.
[0093] Fiber performance indicators: Breaking strength: increased by 20%-25%, reaching 6.5-7.0 cN / dtex; Wetting properties: water droplet contact angle ≤30° (water droplet contact angle of traditional process fibers ≥50°); Whiteness: CIE value ≥80 (under unbleached conditions).
[0094] VI. Verification of experimental data;
[0095] To systematically verify the superiority of this technical solution (formula and ratio), the following three sets of comparative experiments were designed. All experiments used the same batch and specifications of ramie raw materials as raw materials. The control group adopted the traditional high-temperature alkaline boiling degumming process (high alkali concentration, no acid pretreatment and biological enzyme treatment), while the experimental group adopted the complete process described in this invention (acid soaking pretreatment + dynamic alkaline boiling + biological enzyme-assisted treatment).
[0096] 1. Test Conditions
[0097] Untreated raw hemp standard: breaking strength = 2.2 N / tex
[0098] Control group process:
[0099] Alkali boiling: 6% NaOH, liquid ratio 1:15, 100℃, 120min.
[0100] No acid pretreatment, no biological enzyme treatment, and subsequent washing and drying steps are the same as in this invention.
[0101] Experimental group process (this invention):
[0102] Strictly follow the formulas and process parameters described in Parts Two, Three, Four, and Five of this instruction manual.
[0103] Acid leaching pretreatment: 3% H2SO4 + 1% malonic acid + 0.5% oxalic acid + 0.3% sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, 85℃, 30min.
[0104] Dynamic alkaline boiling: 4% NaOH + 3% trisodium phosphate + 1.5% hydrogen peroxide + 0.5% EDTA + 2.5% sodium silicate, 100℃, 0.18MPa, 90min.
[0105] Bioenzyme treatment: pectinase (3000U / g) + xylanase (2000U / g) + laccase (800U / g), 50℃, pH=7.5, 60min.
[0106] 2. Data from three comparative experiments (as shown in the table below):
[0107]
[0108] 3. Conclusion and Analysis: The data from the three repeated comparative experiments above show that, compared with traditional degumming processes, the integrated technical solution of "multi-component acid leaching pretreatment - dynamic alkali boiling of a composite alkali system - bio-enzyme-assisted treatment" adopted in this invention has significant advantages:
[0109] Significantly enhanced fiber quality: The fiber breaking strength increased by an average of 36.4% after treatment by the process of this invention (compared to the baseline value of 2.2 N / tex for untreated raw hemp), significantly higher than the "20%-25%" increase claimed in the instructions, and far superior to the traditional process (average increase of only 9.1%). This fully demonstrates the protective effect of buffers, chelating agents, and enzyme treatment on cellulose, effectively avoiding the damage to fibers caused by traditional strong alkali and high temperature processes.
[0110] Improved economic benefits: Degumming costs have decreased by an average of about 30% (from 5,000 yuan / ton to 3,500 yuan / ton), mainly due to reduced chemical usage, shorter reaction time, and lower energy consumption.
[0111] Increased production efficiency: The total degumming time is reduced by an average of about 40%, which is due to the preliminary degradation of the gum by acid pretreatment and the synergistic effect of multiple components, which creates favorable conditions for subsequent alkaline boiling and greatly improves degumming efficiency.
[0112] Excellent degumming effect: The residual gum rate is significantly reduced (from an average of 15% to below 6%), proving that this formula removes ramie gums (such as pectin, hemicellulose, and lignin) more thoroughly.
[0113] Enhanced fiber quality: The average fiber strength is increased by about 20%, thanks to the protective effect of buffers, chelating agents and enzyme treatment on cellulose, avoiding the damage to the fiber caused by traditional strong alkali and high temperature processes.
[0114] The environmental advantages are significant: the average cost of wastewater treatment has decreased by about 40%. Due to the adoption of a mild composite chemical system and biological enzyme treatment, the generation of highly alkaline and high COD wastewater has been reduced, thus lowering the difficulty and cost of end-of-pipe treatment.
[0115] In summary, the experimental data fully verify the comprehensive superiority of the technical solution of this invention in terms of technological advancement, economy, and environmental protection.
[0116] 2. Verification by orthogonal experiment:
[0117] A four-factor (A, B, C, D) three-level orthogonal experimental design was adopted (A is the acid leaching concentration, corresponding to 1%, 3%, and 5% H2SO4; B is the alkaline boiling concentration, corresponding to 2%, 4%, and 6% NaOH; C is the amount of biological enzyme; and D is the treatment temperature).
[0118] Factor C: Water content for bio-enzymes;
[0119] Level 1: Low dosage (pectinase 2000U / g + xylanase 1000U / g + laccase 500U / g);
[0120] Level 2: Medium dosage (pectinase 3000U / g + xylanase 2000U / g + laccase 800U / g, commonly used level in the examples);
[0121] Level 3: High dosage (pectinase 5000U / g + xylanase 3000U / g + laccase 1000U / g).
[0122] Factor D: Critical processing temperature;
[0123] Level 1: Acid leaching at 80℃ + enzyme treatment at 45℃ (low temperature combination);
[0124] Level 2: Acid leaching at 85°C + enzyme treatment at 50°C (standard temperature combination, consistent with the example);
[0125] Level 3: Acid leaching at 90℃ + enzyme treatment at 55℃ (high temperature combination).
[0126] The results are shown in the table below:
[0127]
[0128]
[0129] Experimental results show that, within the parameter range claimed in this invention (A: 1%-5% H2SO4; B: 2%-6% NaOH; C: low-high enzyme dosage; D: relevant temperature combinations), this process can effectively reduce residual glue rate (as low as 2.5%), improve fiber strength (up to 7.5 cN / dtex) and whiteness (up to 88 CIE), while maintaining reasonable energy consumption control. Among them, Experiment No. 5 (A2B2C3D1) and Experiment No. 9 (A3B3C2D1) show particularly excellent overall results.
[0130] Those skilled in the art can adjust parameters such as acid soaking concentration (1%-5% H2SO4), alkali boiling concentration (2%-6% NaOH), and treatment time according to the actual conditions of the raw ramie. The adjusted solution still falls within the protection scope of this invention.
[0131] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the principles and technical scope of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0132] It should be noted that, in this invention, although the specification describes the embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This way of describing the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
