Title:
CATALYST FOR DEGRADING LIGNIN, CATALYST FOR DEGRADING AROMATIC HYDROCARBON, AND PORPHYRIN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/018832
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A catalyst for degrading lignin and a catalyst for degrading an aromatic hydrocarbon, each of which contains a porphyrin.  A solution containing an alkali compound is added to lignin, a catalyst for degrading lignin is allowed to act on the resulting lignin-alkali compound solution as needed, which is irradiated with light as needed, or a catalyst for degrading lignin is allowed to act on lignin as needed, which is irradiated with light, whereby alcohols and organic acids are separated.  A degradation product generated when the alcohols and organic acids are separated is recovered, and also hydrogen ions are released.  A porphyrin having a catalytic function of converting lignin into alcohols and organic acids, a porphyrin having a catalytic function of degrading a compound containing an aromatic hydrocarbon in which an oxygen atom is bound to carbon which forms a benzene ring, or a porphyrin obtained by culturing Escherichia coli that cannot express a gene ypjD (b2611) due to mutation.
