“…Biomass Type. Since Krzan et al first applied microwave energy to liquefaction [19,20], a variety of biomass types including sweetgum sawdust [8]; agricultural residues including bagasse, corn stover, rice straw, wheat straw, cotton stalk, and corncobs [24][25][26]; organosolv lignin of olive tree prunings [27]; Sargassum polycystum C. Agardh [28]; microalgae [29]; Ulva prolifera [30]; wheat straw alkali lignin International Journal of Polymer Science [31]; sugar beet pulp [32]; peony oil palm empty fruit bunch fiber [16]; oil palm empty fruit bunch cellulose [33]; poplar; Chinese fir; bamboo; hemp xyloid stem [22]; mixed softwood pellets [34]; banana pseudostem [35]; coconut fiber [36]; and grapefruit [37] have been studied as raw materials for microwave-assisted liquefaction for the production of renewable chemical platforms and/or biobased materials. The chemical composition (cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and ash) and microstructure of the lignocellulose feedstocks greatly differed with each other, which may influence their liquefaction behaviors under microwave heating.…”

Microwave-assisted liquefaction is regarded as a promising thermochemical approach to produce renewable and sustainable chemicals and materials from lignocellulosic biomass. Agricultural and forest residues as sources of lignocellulosic biomass have great potential in this regard. With process optimizations, several biomass types have been subjected to liquefaction in different solvents with various catalysts. The products from recent microwave liquefaction with and without further fractionation have been thoroughly analyzed and used for the synthesis of biomaterials. Renewable chemicals, polyurethane foams with partial use of renewable raw materials, and phenolic resins have been the main products from microwave-liquefied products. Further research on microwave liquefaction mechanisms and scalable production should be enhanced to fully evaluate the economic and environmental benefits. This work presents an overview on achievements using liquefaction in combination with microwave energy to convert lignocellulosic biomass into value-added products and chemicals.

“…It might be a valuable research to used water as microwave heating mediums to reduce AFB 1 in corn. In the literature, there were some researchers reported that the combination of water and microwaves had high potential as a postharvest disinfestation treatment [ 19 ]. However, the information on the combined effects of water and microwaves on AFB 1 reduction of corn was lacking.…”

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is one of the most commonly found mycotoxin in corn, which is highly toxic, carcinogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic for the health of humans and animals. In order to reduce the AFB1 in corn, corn kernels were processed with Water-assisted Microwaves Treatment (WMT) and the feasibility of WMT processing on AFB1 reduction and its effects on corn quality were analyzed. Increasing the treatment time and microwave power could increase the reduction of AFB1, and the maximum reduction rate could reach 58.6% and 56.8%, respectively. There was no significant correlation between the initial concentration of AFB1 and the reduction rate of AFB1. During WMT, the main toxigenic molds were sterilized completely, and the moisture content of corn climbed up and then declined to the initial level. WMT could obviously increase the fatty acid value and pasting temperature of corn and reduce the all paste viscosity of corn. However, it had little effect on the color of corn. The results indicated that WMT could reduce AFB1 effectively and avoid the vast appearance of heat-damaged kernels simultaneously. Undoubtedly, water played an important role in WMT. This result provides a new idea for the reduction of AFB1 by microwave.

Effects of microwave‐assisted hot water treatments designed against Mexican fruit fly (Anastrepha ludens) on grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) quality

Abstract: MW-HWT was shorter (130 min) and had a lesser effect on the quality of the grapefruit when compared with fruits under HWT (188 min duration). Thus, this treatment could be considered as an alternative method against the Mexican fruit fly in grapefruit. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
