Abstract:
We previously developed a simple biomimetic model of the enzyme complex for the catalytic decomposition of organic plant waste. The catalyst is based on iron (III) oxides, obtained by hydrolysis of Fe (III) salts in water in the presence of a surfactant. It decomposes H2O2 actively and catalyzes the oxidative destruction of lignobiomass under atmospheric pressure in water media at mild temperature (60-70' C). The oxidative destruction of biomass results in dissolved in liquid phase low molecular oxidation products derived from lignin, hemicellulose, lipoproteins and sugars and the solid residue which represent mainly cellulose. The influence of liquid phase products (LPP) on the growth and development of plants was studied on the following crops: sorghum (Sorghum caffrorum Beauv., Jakuschev), oat (Avena sativa L), wheat Inna (Triticum aestivum L), pea (Pisum sativum L) and potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L). The treatment of agriculture plants by the liquid fraction of the products of catalytic oxidation of lignobiomass was found to have a positive effect on the development of plants and can be used as a growthstimulating factor in crop production.
