Abstract

This chapter focuses on the effects of microwave on hydrothermal processing of algal biomass, especially fast-growing green seaweed biomass of Ulva. Microwave enhances the efficiency of hydrothermal treatment of biomass by directly affecting water molecule, catalysts, and biomass substrates. Firstly, the fundamentals of microwave-assisted biorefinery are illustrated. Then, the microwave effects for hydrothermal processing of biomass were summarized for the model sugar reaction and seaweed conversion. Dielectric properties of seaweed biomass relevant to microwave heating are also presented in the last section.
