[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention] Newspapers,
Recycling of magazines, OA waste paper, etc. has been carried out for a long time, but recently, the effective use of waste paper has become increasingly important, especially in conjunction with global environmental issues such as forest resource protection and garbage disposal. Furthermore, deinked pulp is increasingly being used to produce a higher grade of pulp, as seen in the use of waste newspapers to medium-quality paper. On the other hand, recently used paper is printed using printing technology.
Due to changes in printing methods, printing ink components, etc., the situation is becoming increasingly difficult from the standpoint of deinking. For this reason, improvements have been made to devices to further promote deinking. Chemicals traditionally used to separate and remove ink and other impurities from waste paper include:
As a deinking agent, along with alkaline agents such as caustic soda, sodium silicate, soda carbonate, and sodium phosphate, bleaching agents such as hydrogen peroxide, hyposulfite, and hypochlorite, and sequestering agents such as EDTA and DTPA. Anionic activators such as alkylbenzene sulfonates, higher alcohol sulfate ester salts, α-olefin sulfonates, dialkyl sulfosuccinates, nonionic activators such as higher alcohols, ethylene oxide adducts of alkylphenols and fatty acids, and alkanolamides. have been used singly or in combination of two or more. However, although these deinking agents have high foaming properties in flotation treatment, their ink collection ability is low, and in addition, their cleaning power is weak in washing methods, and their high foaming properties prevent foaming problems in wastewater treatment. As a result, only low grade deinked pulp was obtained. In particular, used OA papers such as PPC (plain paper copy) and CPO (computer print output) use styrene/acrylic binders and polyester binders whose printing ink (toner) is different from newspaper printing ink binders. Therefore, after normal deinking processing, large amounts of coarse ink with a particle size of 30 μm or more are not sufficiently removed and remain, so a large amount of shearing force energy must be applied or a large amount of alkali must be used. . However, using a large amount of alkali leads to undesirable results such as increased stickiness, increased wastewater load, and pulp embrittlement.
At present, there is no effective means for deinking OA waste paper and its compound products.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present inventors have demonstrated excellent ink removal ability using the flotation method, washing method, and a combination thereof, and there is no problem with foaming, and when using various types of waste paper, high whiteness is achieved. It is possible to obtain highly deinked pulp,
In particular, we have conducted intensive research to develop deinking agents and deinking methods that can reduce coarse ink with a particle size of 30 μm or more without using large amounts of shearing energy, especially when using OA waste paper or its combination products. As a result, surprisingly, a deinking agent containing a specific nonionic activator as an essential ingredient,
It was also discovered that a deinking method in which the deinking agent is added separately to the pulping process and the mixing process and/or the flotating process after the pulping process can overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks, and has thus arrived at the present invention.

[0009] The numerical limitations and solubility parameter values of the compound represented by the general formula (1) related to the present invention are critical, and even if it is a similar compound, it does not fall under the provisions of the present invention. The remarkable effects of the present invention cannot be obtained. Therefore, limiting the number of carbon atoms in general formula (1) and limiting the physicochemical constants of the compound are extremely important. As will be made clear from the examples below, for example, R in general formula (1)
If the number of carbon atoms is less than 1, that is, it is not a hydrocarbon group such as an alkyl group or alkenyl group, the ink collecting ability will be weak and it will not be possible to obtain a deinked pulp with high whiteness. This causes problems with foaming in the wastewater treatment process, and the productivity of deinked pulp decreases significantly. In addition, the number of moles m added to alkylene oxide is 1 to 6 on average, but
Particularly preferably 1 to 4. If m of the alkylene oxide is less than 1, coarse ink with a particle size of 30 μm or more will remain significantly, and if it exceeds 6, foaming problems will occur frequently in the wastewater treatment process due to the high foaming property.

The solubility parameter value of the compound represented by general formula (1) is 9.0 to 11.8, preferably 9.0 to 11.8.
It is important that it is in the range of 5 to 11.3, more preferably 9.8 to 10.8. If the solubility parameter value is less than 9.0, only deinked pulp with a large amount of coarse ink can be obtained. Also 11.8
If the ink exceeds this value, the ink becomes too fine and cannot be removed sufficiently in the flotation process.As a result, only deinked pulp with low whiteness is obtained, and the flotation reject has poor debubbling properties and problems in the wastewater treatment process. Problems such as foaming problems also occur.

When looking at the ink binder, in the case of used newspaper, the printing ink binder is a phenolic resin, whereas in the case of OA waste paper, the printing ink binder is a styrene-acrylic resin or a polyester-based resin, and the physicochemical properties of the ink are different. For this reason, it is necessary to design a deinking agent for OA waste paper from a different perspective than for used newspaper paper. The present invention was made based on the fact that compounds having solubility parameter values within a very limited range are effective as a result of investigation from a direction not explained in the prior art, such as solubility parameters. It is clearly different.
