A method and apparatus for treating wood pulp that includes incompletely washed brownstock, in which the brownstock is treated at a pH range of approximately 7.0 to 9.0 with a hemicellulase enzyme preparation that has a pH optimum below 6.0. Also, a method and apparatus for treating wood pulp containing incompletely washed brownstock in which the brownstock is treated at a pH range of approximately 6.0 to 9.0 with a hemicellulase enzyme preparation that has a pH optimum below 6.0 and that has a low cellulase content such that not more than about 10,000 FPU are added per ton of pulp. |
