Understanding of both the textural and functionality changes occurring during (mesoporous) polysaccharide carbonisation at the molecular level provides a deeper insight into the whole spectrum of material properties, from chemical activity to pore shape and surface energy, which is crucial for the successful application of carbonaceous materials in adsorption, catalysis and chromatography. Obtained information will help to identify the most appropriate applications of the carbonaceous material generated during torrefaction and different types of pyrolysis processes and therefore will be important for the development of cost- and energy-efficient zero-waste biorefineries. The presented approach is informative and semi-quantitative with the potential to be extended to the formation of other biomass-derived carbonaceous materials.
理解（中孔）多糖碳化过程中分子水平上的结构和功能变化，可深入了解从化学活性到孔形状和表面能的整个材料性能谱，这对于在吸附、催化和色谱中成功应用含碳材料至关重要。所获得的信息将有助于确定热解和不同类型热解过程中产生的含碳材料的最合适应用，因此对于开发具有成本效益和节能的零废物生物精炼厂非常重要。所提出的方法具有信息性和半定量性，具有扩展到其他生物质衍生的含碳材料形成的潜力。
