The thermal stability has been estimated by the measurement of the degradation temperature (Td), calculated according to the maximum reaction rate. In addition, degradation temperature at 10% of conversion (T10%) has been obtained in order to compare the initial stability of the samples with Td for all samples. The values of Td are comprised between 262 and 389°C and the average value is 340°C. The range for T10% is 251–320°C and the average value is 270°C. The ashes content of the samples has been analyzed and all the residues presented values lower than 4wt%. Kinetic parameters of lignin pyrolysis were calculated by Borchardt–Daniels’ method assuming nth order reaction. The activation energy values obtained are comprised between 17.9 and 42.5kJ/mol and the average value is 28.1kJ/mol. These results are in agreement with the bibliography.engjournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.indcrop.2007.07.006https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0926669007001008restricted access66Organosolv ligninsThermal degradationPyrolysis kineticsThermogravimetric analysis (TGA)Ingeniería química3303 Ingeniería y Tecnología Químicas
