development of heterogeneous catalysts to affect the activation of recalcitrant biomolecules
has applications for biomass processing, biomass fuel cells, and wastewater
remediation. We demonstrate that a cobalt oxygen evolution catalyst
(Co-OEC) can catalyze the oxidation of carbon feedstocks completely
to CO2. A quantitative analysis of the product distribution
from the oxidative degradation of the C2 compound, ethylene
glycol, is elaborated and a reaction sequence is proposed. The Co-OEC
is also found to be competent for oxidatively degrading C2+ compounds, including glucose and lignin, to carbon dioxide at consequential
Faradaic efficiencies.
