    Abstract: A method for oxidation of cellulose to dialdehyde cellulose (DAC), said method comprising: a) oxidizing cellulose with an aqueous periodate solution having a pH in the range of 3 to 5 to form oxidized cellulose comprising DAC; b) separating the aqueous periodate solution from the oxidized cellulose; c) regenerating the separated aqueous periodate solution by electrolytic oxidation; d) adjusting of the pH of the regenerated aqueous periodate solution to a value in the range of 3 to 5; and e) reusing the pH adjusted regenerated aqueous periodate solution, optionally combined with a make-up amount of fresh aqueous periodate solution, as the aqueous periodate solution in step a).
