Abstract
⺠Perhydrolases form peracetic acid from ethyl acetate and hydrogen peroxide. ⺠Peracetic acid fragments lignin, but does not damage cellulose. ⺠New enzyme and pretreatment procedure reduce the amount of enzyme tenfold. ⺠Pretreatment requires 0.28 g peracetic acid per g of aspen wood. ⺠After peracid pretreatment, 97% of the sugars are released by cellulases.
