A tentative economic analysis of kraft and soda anthraquinone pulping of muli bamboo showed that better benefits can be achieved in soda + AQ pulping compared to its soda pulping. A mill producing 30,000 tons of pulp annually can save Tk 52.5 million by using soda + AQ process. Addition of AQ in low sulphidity kraft pulping is also profitable. Kraft15 + AQ pulping of muli bamboo is capable of saving Tk 30 million compared to kraft15 without AQ and Tk 7.6 million compared to normal kraft pulping. Addition of AQ in normal kraft pulping is not very encouraging where only Tk 5 million can be saved compared to normal kraft cook.
