PbO2 electrode modified by [Fe(CN)6](3-) (marked as FeCN-PbO2) was prepared by electro-deposition method and used for the electrochemical degradation of alkali lignin (AL). The surface morphology and the structure of the electrodes were characterized by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. The stability and electrochemical activity of FeCN-PbO2 electrode were characterized by accelerated life test, linear sweep voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectrum (EIS) and AL degradation. The results showed that [Fe(CN)6](3-) increased the average grain size of PbO2 and formed a compact surface coating. The service lifetime of FeCN-PbO2 electrode was 287.25 h, which was longer than that of the unmodified PbO2 electrode (100.5h). The FeCN-PbO2 electrode showed higher active surface area and higher oxygen evolution potential than that of the unmodified PbO2 electrode. In electrochemical degradation tests, the apparent kinetics coefficient of FeCN-PbO2 electrode was 0.00609 min(-1), which was higher than that of unmodified PbO2 electrode (0.00419 min(-1)). The effects of experimental parameters, such as applied current density, initial AL concentration, initial pH value and solution temperature, on electrochemical degradation of AL by FeCN-PbO2 electrode were evaluated.
