“…Main advantages of microwave heating derive from the almost immediate ''in core" heating of materials, in an homogeneous and selective manner, especially those with poor heat conduction properties [12]. Microwave heating has attracted the attention of investigators in that it makes it possible to shorten significantly the length of reactions, to increase their selectivity, and to increase the product yields, which is particularly important in the case of high-temperature processes that take a long time [13].…”
