Abstract
A method of producing glucaric acid by electrochemical treatment includes (a) providing a reactor including a first electrode-containing region and a second electrode-containing region separated by an electrolyte membrane, adding a glucose mixture to any one region of the reactor, and adding an electrolyte solution to both regions of the reactor. The method also includes (b) producing glucaric acid by oxidizing glucose by applying a voltage between the first electrode and the second electrode in the reactor subjected to step (a). The electrode in the region to which the glucose mixture is added includes a catalyst containing tantalum.
