“…In the molecular-context of the present review, the papers by Vinu and Broadbelt (2012), Shen, et al (2015) and Burnham, Zhou and Broadbelt (2015), deserve more discussion. Vinu and Broadbelt's 2012 work on pyrolysis of glucose-based carbohydrates assimilates decades of research on reaction pathways into a detailed kinetic schema with what appears to be 63 individual reactions -25 Arrhenius-based rate constants along with activation energies and in some cases temperature exponents for modified Arrhenius equations -the constants of which were either obtained from among eight prior works or estimated by modeling fitting.…”

“…Since 2000, however, pyrolysis of whole biomass, cellulose and lignin has been a fastmoving field of research, spawning extensive reviews, every 10 months (inclusive of the recent papers by Vinu and Broadbelt, 2012, Lede, 2012and and Burnham, Zhou and Broadbelt, 2015 on the average in an effort to inform the research community and keep-up with the pace of advances. In addition to the earlier reviews on cellulose already mentioned, the following papers, listed chronologically, chronical the advances made in the 15 year period from 2000 to 2015 (Anital Jr, 1985;Sinha, et al, 2000;Bridgwater and Peacocke, 2000;Amen-Chen, Pakdel and Roy, 2001;Czernick and Bridgwater, 2004;Reale, et al, 2004;Branca, Albano and Di Blasi, 2005;Mohan, Pittman and Steele, 2006;Prakash and Karunanithi, 2008;Venderbosch and Prins, 2010;Slutter, et al, 2010;White, Catallo and Legendre, 2011;Pandey and Kim, 2011;Bridgwater, 2012;and Shen, et al, 2015). Short of the work by Vinu andShen, et al, 2015, even the most recent reviews hardly mention the already large and rapidly growing body of literature on molecular-based modeling studies that are now a mainstream part of the effort to elucidate the complex process of lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis.…”

-Decades of classical research on pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass has not yet produced a generalized formalism for design and prediction of reactor performance. Plagued by the limitations of experimental techniques such as thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and extremely fast heating rates and low residence times to achieve high conversion to useful liquid products, researchers are now turning to molecular modeling to gain insights. This contribution briefly summarizes prior reviews along the historical path towards kinetic modeling of biomass pyrolysis and focusses on the more recent work on molecular modeling and the associated experimental efforts to validate model predictions. Clearly a new era of molecular-scale modelingdriven inquiry is beginning to shape the research landscape and influence the description of how cellulose and associated hemicellulose and lignin depolymerize to form the many hundreds of potential products of pyrolysis.

This paper presents the problem of application of modern developments in the field of bio-energy for the development of autonomous mobile robots' power sources. We carried out analysis of biofuel cells, gasification and pyrolysis of biomass. Nowadays, very few technologies in the bioenergy field are conducted with regards to the demands brought by robotics. At the same time, a number of technologies, such as biofuel cells, have now already come into use as a power supply for experimental autonomous mobile robots. The general directions for research that may help to increase the efficiency of power energy sources described in the article, in case of their use in robotics, are also presented.

“…In this paper, a short overview of recent papers addressing lignin conversion technologies for chemicals and materials is presented. For an in-depth review, the following papers are recommended: Zhang et al 2010a;Srirangan et al 2012;Iqbal et al 2013;and Shen et al 2015. Additionally, especially for lignin conversion technologies, Pandey andKim (2011), Huang (2014), and Laurichesse and Avérous (2014) are particularly useful literature sources.…”

Technological development has enabled the production of new value-added products from lignocellulosic residues such as lignin. This has allowed the forest industry to diversify its product portfolio and maximize the economic returns from feedstock, while simultaneously working towards sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based products. Although previous research has explored industrial-scale production opportunities, many challenges persist, including the cost of woody biomass and its supply chain reliability. While numerous studies have addressed these issues, their emphasis has traditionally been on bioenergy, with little focus on biochemical, biomaterials, and bioproducts. This review seeks to address this gap through a systematic study of the work recently reported by researchers. A lot of work has been published from United States and Canada with an emphasis on bioenergy production (84.8%), 4.6% of the work is focused on biomass to materials and chemicals, and 10.6% addressed both. Between 2012 and 2015, the majority of published research focused on biomass to materials and chemicals and both biomass to energy and biomass to materials and chemicals. This fact highlights recent interests in diversified biorefinery portfolios. However, further work concerning forest biomass supply chain optimization and new high-value bio-based materials and chemicals is necessary.Key words: biomass to energy, biomass to materials and chemicals, economic optimization, lignocellulosic residues, value-added bio-based products.Résumé : Des avancées technologiques ont rendu possible la production de nouveaux produits à valeur ajoutée à partir de résidus lignocellulosiques tels que la lignine. Cela a permis à l'industrie forestière de diversifié sa gamme de produits et de maximiser les retombées économiques de la matière première tout en travaillant simultanément à développer des alternatives durables aux produits à base de pétrole. Bien que les travaux de recherche précédents aient exploré les opportunités de production à l'échelle industrielle, plusieurs défis persistent, incluant le coût de la biomasse ligneuse et la fiabilité de sa chaîne logistique. Alors que de nombreuses études se sont intéressées à ces questions, l'accent a traditionnellement été mis sur la bioénergie et très peu sur les bioproduits : produits biochimiques et biomatériaux. Cette revue de littérature vise à combler cette lacune par le biais d'une étude systématique des travaux récemment publiés par les chercheurs. Beaucoup de travaux publiés aux États-Unis et au Canada mettent l'accent sur la production de bioénergie (84,8 %), 4,6 % des travaux portent sur la transformation de la biomasse en matériaux et produits chimiques et 10,6 % s'intéressent aux deux sujets. La majorité des travaux de recherche publiés entre 2012 et 2015 portent sur la transformation de la biomasse en matériaux et produits chimiques et sur les deux sujets, soit la transformation de la biomasse en énergie, matériaux et produits chimiques. Cela met en évidence l'intérêt récen...
