This invention relates to an environmentally preferred process for the delignification of a cellulosic biomass comprising pulp. The process uses the oxidative properties of nascent oxygen to complete pulping and bleaching operations. The process may be used in a pulping stage, a bleaching stage or can be used for both the pulping and bleaching stages of a delignification process. The process does not rely on large volumes of environmentally offensive chemicals such as caustic soda, sulfur, and chlorine to achieve delignification of the pulp.
