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).<!-- As a rapid and effective heating source with both thermal and nonthermal effects, MW can directly interact with the material, thereby accelerating chemical, physical, and biologic reactions. (Xu Jian, 2015) Microwave treatment causes a rise in the temperature within a penetrated medium as a result of rapid changes of the electromagnetic field at high frequency. (Lewandowicz et al. 2000) --></onlyinclude>
