The invention concerns a procedure for the bleaching of
pulp, in which procedure an oxidating bleaching chemical
containing chlorine is used. The essential feature of the
invention is that the pulp is treated, either in conjuction
with or before oxidation, with a lignin-modifying oxidation-
reduction enzyme, such as the laccase produced by the white-
rot fungus. The oxidating bleaching chemical used in the
procedure may be chlorine dioxide or a mixture of chlorine
dioxide and chlorine gas. The use of said enzyme reduces the
amount of chlorophenols and other forms of organically bound
chlorine in the bleaching effluent, simultaneously lowering
its chemical oxygen demand.
