Lignocellulose‐mediated liquid metal (LM) composites, as emerging functional materials, show tremendous potential for a variety of applications. The abundant hydroxyl, carboxyl, and other polar groups in lignocellulose facilitate the formation of strong chemical bonds with LM surfaces, enhancing wettability and adhesion for improved interface compatibility. Beyond serving as a supportive matrix, lignocellulose can be tailored to optimize the microstructure of the composites, adapting them for diverse applications. This review comprehensively summarizes the fundamental principles and recent advancements in lignocellulose‐mediated LM composites, highlighting the advantages of lignocellulose in composite fabrication, including facile synthesis, versatile interactions, and inherent functionalities. Key modulation strategies for LMs and innovative synthesis methods for functionalized lignocellulose composites are discussed. Furthermore, the roles and structure–performance relationships of these composites in electromagnetic shielding, flexible sensors, and energy storage devices are systematically summarized. Finally, the obstacles and prospective advancements pertaining to lignocellulose‐mediated LM composites are thoroughly scrutinized and deliberated upon. This review is expected to provide basic guidance for researchers to boost the popularity of LMs in diverse applications and provide useful references for design strategies of state‐of‐the‐art LMs.

The increasing demand for renewable energy sources has led to significant interest in second-generation biofuels derived from lignocellulosic biomass and waste materials. This review underscores the pivotal role of lignocellulosic biomass valorization in meeting global energy needs, mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, and fostering a circular bioeconomy. Key pretreatment methods—including steam explosion, pressure treatment, and chemical pretreatment—are analyzed for their ability to enhance the accessibility of cellulose and hemicellulose in enzymatic saccharification. Advances in cellulolytic enzyme development and fermentation strategies, such as the use of genetically engineered microorganisms capable of fermenting both hexoses and pentoses, are discussed in detail. Furthermore, the potential of biorefinery systems is explored, highlighting their capacity to integrate biomass valorization into biofuel production alongside high-value bioproducts. Case studies and recent trends in bioethanol and biogas production are examined, providing insights into the current state of research and its industrial applications. While lignocellulosic biofuels hold considerable promise for sustainable development and emissions reduction, challenges related to cost optimization, process scalability, and technological barriers must be addressed to enable large-scale implementation. This review serves as a comprehensive foundation for bridging the gap between laboratory research and industrial application, emphasizing the need for continued innovation and interdisciplinary collaboration in biofuel technologies.
