Oxidation of lignin model compounds by organic and transition metal-based electron transfer mediators.
We have studied the oxidation of lignin model compounds by organic and transition metal-based mediators using either an enzyme or an electrolysis cell as the mediator oxidizing agent. Electrolysis of inorganic mediator seems a promising technology for pulp delignification.
