Abstract

As global energy demands grow and as the environmental and economic issues of fossil fuel use arise, lignocellulosic biomass is starting to attract increased attention as a potential source of energy and chemicals. Being an abundant, accessible, and cost-effective feedstock for a wide variety of products, ranging from transportation fuels to pharmaceuticals, lignocellulose shows great promise for the future. However, in order to utilize its potential, an efficient pretreatment method has to be applied. Hydrothermal pretreatment is one of the most promising and environmentally friendly biomass pretreatment methods available to make the lignocellulosic biomass vulnerable to enzymatic breakdown. This chapter describes the principle of the hydrothermal pretreatments, as well as influence of temperature and time on the effectiveness of the pretreatment and the kinetic models of the process. Various configurations of systems employing hydrothermal pretreatments have also been presented (with examples of process conditions), including hot water, steam explosion, catalyzed hydrothermal treatment, and combination with other methods.
