Microwaves accelerate various catalytic reactions. However, a theoretical framework describing the microwave effect is not yet well established. The mechanism of microwave-induced local hot spots is now being elucidated through "in situ" observations. Then, we can propose a "rational" design for microwave-driven catalytic reactions. This lecture will present our recent works on the theory of microwave-driven catalytic reactions and their application to biomass valorization.
