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:

Characteristics of hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin pyrolysis
TL;DR: In this article, the pyrolysis characteristics of three main components (hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin) of biomass were investigated using, respectively, a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) detector and a pack bed.

Thermochemical biofuel production in hydrothermal media: A review of sub- and supercritical water technologies
Andrew A. Peterson,Andrew A. Peterson,Frédéric Vogel,Russell P. Lachance,Morgan Fröling,Michael Jerry Antal,Jefferson W. Tester +6 more
TL;DR: Several biomass hydrothermal conversion processes are in development or demonstration as mentioned in this paper, which are generally lower temperature (200-400 °C) reactions which produce liquid products, often called bio-oil or bio-crude.

A review of catalytic upgrading of bio-oil to engine fuels
Peter Mølgaard Mortensen,Jan-Dierk Grunwaldt,Peter Arendt Jensen,K.G. Knudsen,Anker Degn Jensen +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, two general routes for bio-oil upgrading have been considered: hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) and zeolite cracking, where zeolites, e.g. HZSM-5, are used as catalysts for the deoxygenization reaction.

Hydrogenolysis and hydrocracking of the carbon-oxygen bond. 2. Thermal cleavage of the carbon-oxygen bond in guaiacol
TL;DR: In this article, a model compound, guaiacol, is used for the study of the behavior of the carbon-oxygen bonds under thermolytic conditions, and the thermodynamic properties of the compound are studied in tetralin, naphthalene and without solvent under hydrogen or nitrogen pressure at 578-618 K.
