Mechanisms of liquefaction and pyrolysis reactions of biomass
TLDR
In the liquefaction process, the micellar-like broken down fragments produced by hydrolysis are degraded to smaller compounds by dehydration, dehydrogenation, deoxygenation and decarboxylation as mentioned in this paper.About:

Analyzing reversible changes in hygroscopicity of thermally modified eucalypt wood from open and closed reactor systems
TL;DR: In this paper, Eucalyptus nitens was thermally modified in either an open or a closed-reactor system at different temperatures and water vapor pressures, and reversible changes in equilibrium moisture content (EMC) and volumetric swelling (Smax) were analyzed during cycles that included repeated conditioning at 20°C/65% RH, water-soaking and vacuum-drying at room temperature.
PYROLYSIS OF BIOMASS ∞ Rapid Pyrolysis at High Temperature ∞ Slow Pyrolysis for Active Carbon Preparation
TL;DR: In this article, rapid pyrolysis of wood(birch) and some agricultural products is discussed, and the first part of this thesis is presented. But it is not discussed in detail.
