Hydrothermal process is a potential technology to convert lignocellulosic resources into biofuels and value-added chemicals in a green fashion. Fractionation of woody biomass allows the exploration of the concept of integrated forestry biorefinery. The hydrolysis of hemicellulose produces oligosaccharides, pentose (xylose and arabinose), hexose (glucose, mannose, and galactose), acids (acetic acid, formic acid, and levulinic acid), and furans (furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural), as well as resulting insoluble humins as by-products under harsh conditions. This chapter highlights recent results on hydrothermal processing of various lignocellulosic biomasses, including fundamentals of hydrothermal pretreatment and mechanistic and kinetic studies in such process, especially in analysis and characterization of hemicelluloses before and after hydrothermal processing.
