dc.description.abstractMICROWAVE PRETREATMENT (MWP) HAS EMERGED AS A PROMISING STRATEGY TO ENHANCE THE PYROLYSIS OF LIGNOCELLULOSIC BIOMASS DUE TO ITS RAPID, VOLUMETRIC, AND SELECTIVE HEATING. BY DISRUPTING THE RECALCITRANT STRUCTURE OF CELLULOSE, HEMICELLULOSE, AND LIGNIN, MWP IMPROVES BIOMASS DECONSTRUCTION, INCREASES CARBOHYDRATE ACCESSIBILITY, AND ENHANCES YIELDS OF BIO-OIL, SYNGAS, AND BIOCHAR. WHEN COMBINED WITH COMPLEMENTARY PRETREATMENTS?SUCH AS ALKALI, ACID, HYDROTHERMAL, ULTRASONIC, OR IONIC-LIQUID METHODS?MWP FURTHER REDUCES ACTIVATION ENERGIES, FACILITATING MORE EFFICIENT SACCHARIFICATION AND THERMAL CONVERSION. THIS REVIEW SYSTEMATICALLY EVALUATES SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS IN THIS FIELD THROUGH BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS, MAPPING RESEARCH TRENDS, EVOLUTION, AND COLLABORATIVE NETWORKS. KEY RESEARCH QUESTIONS ARE ADDRESSED REGARDING THE TECHNICAL ADVANTAGES OF MWP, THE PHYSICOCHEMICAL TRANSFORMATIONS INDUCED IN BIOMASS, AND ASSOCIATED ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS. FINDINGS INDICATE THAT MICROWAVE IRRADIATION PROMOTES HEMICELLULOSE DEPOLYMERIZATION, REDUCES CELLULOSE CRYSTALLINITY, AND WEAKENS LIGNIN?CARBOHYDRATE LINKAGES, WHICH FACILITATES SUBSEQUENT THERMAL DECOMPOSITION AND CONTRIBUTES TO IMPROVED PYROLYSIS EFFICIENCY AND PRODUCT QUALITY. FROM AN ENVIRONMENTAL PERSPECTIVE, MWP CONTRIBUTES TO ENERGY SAVINGS, MITIGATES GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS, AND SUPPORTS THE INTEGRATION OF RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY IN BIOMASS CONVERSION.
