The Microwave pre-treatment includes technologies that utilise physical processes to induce thermal and non-thermal effects that drive physical, chemical or biological reactions[1]. The technology is usually utilised in food drying or to break down the structure of lignocellulosic biomass leading to the release of different substances (e.g. fermentable sugar).
Feedstock
Origin and composition
Lignocellulosic biomass
Process and technologies
Compared to other thermal treatments, the technology brings several advantages, such as reduced plant footprint, higher throughput, higher reaction rates, higher yield and purity, which has recently led to greater interest[1].
Product
- Fermentable sugar (e.g. for bio-alcohol production)
