Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a method for improving the drainability of mechanical pulp or pulp mainly containing mechanical pulp by means of enzyme treatment by adding to the pulp at least one hemicellulose-dissolving enzyme or an enzyme preparation containing at least one hemicellulose-dissolving enzyme and being substantially free from cellulose-dissolving enzymes. The enzyme treatment according to the invention not only improve the drainability of the pulp but also retains the strength properties of the pulp since no cellulose-dissolving enzymes are used.
