title: Enzymatic control of biological deposits in papermaking.
abstract: Deposit control in the pulp and paper industry has traditionally been accomplished by the use of toxic biocides. A method has been found whereby biological deposits can be controlled by the use of an enzyme-based product. Numerous field studies have been conducted successfully and photographs prepared illustrating the process. The dynamics of deposit formation and problems associated with such formations have been the subject of considerable study. Development and control of deposit problems under different paper mill conditions using the chemical-biochemical approach will be discussed.
