Abstract: Biomass is the sole renewable carbon resource that can be transferred into gas, liquid and solid fuels as well as other chemicals.As the fossil energy will be exhaustive,humans pay more attention to the problems of global environment.Many scholars and researchers in the world have been focusing on the research and development of biomass energy to substitute for fossil energy.The clean and high quality gas,liquid or solid fuels converted from renewable biomass resources by different ways were described in the course series.The paper summarized the research progress of the pretreatment technology of lignocellulose biomass and acid hydrolysis technology. The merits and shortcomings of some technology were discussed.The future research trend in pretreatment and acid hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass was presented.

Key words: plant material, pretreatment, acid hydrolysis
