Abstract
Electrochemical oxidative degradation of Kraft lignin was investigated in batch and flow cells on Pt, Au, Ni, Cu, DSA–O_2 and PbO_2 anodes. Production of vanillin was evaluated by means of formal kinetic analyses. Conversion and chemical yields were found to be dependent mainly on the applied current density, that is on the partial pressure of oxygen at the interface, while the nature of the electrode influenced the reaction rates.
