Comparative Evaluation of Soda and Nitrate-Alkaline Pulping of Hemp, Flax, and Sisal Post-harvest Biomass. (2026)

As wood is still scarce in some countries, it is necessary to replace wood in the paper industry with other lignocellulosic raw materials, particularly agricultural residues. This study evaluated hemp, flax, and sisal postharvest biomass as alternative nonwoody fibrous feedstocks for pulp and paper
