Three main pretreatment methods (torrefaction, hydrothermal carbonization and degradative solvent extraction) have been developed to deoxygenate and upgrade biomass into biochar, hydrochar and extract, respectively, which have a variety of high-value applications. However, the influence of the three pretreatment methods on the moisture absorption and self-ignition characteristics of biomass still remains unclear, which greatly affects the subsequent storage, transportation and utilization process of the biochar, hydrochar and extract. Therefore, the effects of torrefaction, hydrothermal carbonization and degradative solvent extraction on the moisture absorption and self-ignition characteristics of biomass were investigated and compared in this study. The results showed that the moisture absorption ratios of the pretreated products (biochar, hydrochar and extract) were as low as 3.8%, 1% and 0.8%, respectively, which was obviously lower than that of RS (8%), indicating that the moisture absorption propensities of biochar, hydrochar and extract were all obviously inhibited compared to RS. These results were caused by the dramatic removal of oxygen functional groups during the three pretreatment processes. The heat release of biochar (6950 kJ/kg) and hydrochar (7134 kJ/kg) below 300 °C were obviously higher than that of RS (5950 kJ/kg), while the heat release of extract (5063 kJ/kg) below 300 °C was much lower than that of RS. Compared with RS, biochar and hydrochar had higher specific surface areas and higher contents of inorganic metallic elements, which contributed to their higher self-ignition susceptibilities than those of RS. In contrast, the extract had a dense structure and extremely low oxygen functional groups contents as well as low inorganic metallic elements contents, which jointly led to its lower self-ignition susceptibility than that of RS. This research is expected to provide a comprehensive understanding of the influence mechanism of pretreatment on the moisture absorption and self-ignition characteristics of biomass.
