Abstract:The resource utilization and high-value conversion of agricultural biomass are crucial to increasing farmers’ incomes, enhancing agricultural efficiency, and improving rural environmental management. They are key components of the nation’s efforts to promote green agricultural development and implement the rural revitalization strategy and the “dual carbon” strategy. Agricultural biomass has a complex composition and exhibits significant variations in properties; relying on a single conversion technology leads to issues such as low energy utilization efficiency, insufficient utilization of components, and limited added value of the products. To address these bottlenecks, focusing on high-value coupled refining of agricultural biomass and precise process monitoring, and the high-value-added coupled pyrolysis of agricultural biomass and precise process monitoring. It provided a comprehensive review of the development of two types of coupled pyrolysis technology systems “ photo-thermal-storage” and “photo-biological-thermal-storage”, and their associated equipment. Furthermore, it conducted a horizontal comparison of the four “photo-thermal-storage” technology routes based on dimensions such as feedstock adaptability, energy conversion efficiency, system complexity, and technological maturity, thereby clarifying the applicable scenarios and bottlenecks of different coupling pathways. Regarding rapid spectroscopic analysis, the application progress of near-infrared spectroscopy, mid-infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy, and spectral imaging technologies in feedstock evaluation, process monitoring, and product quality control were systematically summarized. It outlined the current state of development in the evolution of spectroscopic equipment from laboratory-based systems to portable field devices and industrial online detection systems, and analyzed issues related to matrix and operating condition interference in complex engineering environments. Building on this foundation, focusing on exploring pathways for integrating rapid spectroscopic analysis with coupled refining processes. It proposed a collaborative interference-elimination strategy comprising “hardware suppression—spectral calibration—model transfer—condition monitoring” and identified three key future research directions: the development of specialized equipment for extreme operating conditions; modeling driven by the integration of mechanisms and data; and intelligent closed-loop control of spectral data and multi-energy-flow systems. Finally, development prospects were proposed for key issues such as multi-energy-flow coordination, online spectral sensing, and equipment integration in coupled refining systems, with the aim of providing guidance for the high-value utilization and engineering applications of agricultural biomass.
