Pulp and paper enzymes. MetZyme® is a family of enzymatic solutions for all lignin-based biomass applications. These enzymes treat and enhance reused pulp, allowing clients to substitute virgin fiber with recycled fiber (RCF). Products made from RCF require less energy and chemicals to produce. MetZyme® PUREECO™ enzyme process lignocellulosic feedstock to create sustainable and renewably-sourced chemical building blocks for bioplastics, sorbitol, xylitol, furfural, 5-HMF, FDCA, organic acids, and other technologies that support biofuels. Lignin is often treated as waste and burned. MetZyme® FORICO™ neutralizes harmful chemicals, breaks lignin networks, and polymerizes soluble phenolic compounds, assisting in water treatment and effluent control. Soluble lignin, phenolic compounds are harmful inhibitors for microbes that reduce COD and produce less waste. Many of these products are easy and safe to apply and are effective in a wide range of pH and temperatures.
