Popis: Content: Nowadays, tannery pollution is of great concern worldwide. The unhairing and fiber bundle-opening processes contribute the majority of the pollution by the use of sodium sulfide and calcium hydroxide, which were proposed to be replaced by neutral protease combined with (potassium chloride) KCl, (lithium bromide)LiBr/1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride([AMIm]Cl) in the present work. Proper amount of KCl can speed up the unhairing with the grain not destroyed by the neutral protease. Four methods for unhairing and fiber bundle-opening were used as follows: 1. Two steps in different floats as KCl/neutral protease unhairing, followed by LiBr/[AMIm]Cl for fiber bundle-opening; 2. Two steps in different floats as neutral protease unhairing, followed by LiBr/[AMIm]Cl for fiber bundle-opening; 3. One step in the same float as neutral protease for unhairing firstly and then LiBr/[AMIm]Cl for fiber bundle-opening. 4. One step in the same float as neutral protease/KCl for unhairing firstly and then LiBr/[AMIm]Cl for fiber bundle-opening. It was found that using neutral protease/KCl solution for unhairing and LiBr/[AMIm]Cl solution for fiber bundle-opening is the best in fiber bundle-opening at the liming process. Besides, all the methods used here are better than the traditional liming processes (C) from viewpoints of unhairing and fiber bundleopening. Take-Away: 1. The addition of potassium chloride can improve the stability of neutral protease solution. 2. The catalytic efficiency of the enzyme was improved because of adding potassium chloride can enhance the contact rate of neutral protease with substrate. 3. Ionic liquids have less hydrolysis of collagen and larger dissolution of polysaccharides.
