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. Kraft]5 + AQ pulping of muli bamboo is capable of saving Tk 30 million compared to kraft]5 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.
