Jute fiber was proposed as an alternative raw material for dissolving pulp production. Jute fiber had cellulose (71.8%±0.1%), xylan (10.8%±0.1%), lignin (13.7%±0.2%), and extractives (3.8%±0.0%). In this study, jute fiber was hydrolyzed with H₂SO₄ to remove xylan. To achieve the best conditions for removing hemicellulose and obtaining a high cellulose content, acid hydrolysis pretreatment was performed at various acid concentrations (0.25-1 N), reaction times (60-120 min), and temperatures (100°C-120°C). The results showed that the optimum condition of acid hydrolysis for higher dissolving pulp raw material yield within less than 5.0% xylan was cellulose (60.5±0.2) and xylan (2.9±0.2) at 1 N H₂SO₄, 100°C for 90 min. However, by increasing the reaction temperature to 120°C for 120 min, the chemical used was reduced to 0.25 N H₂SO₄ and the highest purity of cellulose was produced, with cellulose and xylan content of 56.1%±0.1% and 1.3%±0.1%, respectively.
