As the most accessible and abundant renewable resource on earth, lignocellulosic biomass mainly consists of cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin with a small amount of protein, pectin, minerals, and extractives (e.g., tannins, lipids, and resins). Lignocellulosic biomass has gained extensive attention in industry and research owing to its renewability, availability, and low cost. However, achieving efficient fractionation of lignocellulose components and all-component utilization in a green and cost-effective manner remains a challenge dueto biomass recalcitrance. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have received considerable attention because they are biocompatible, inexpensive, biodegradable, have low toxicity, and are easy to prepare and recycle; these characteristics strongly depend on individual components involved in DESs preparation. This review systematically summarizes recent progress in the fractionation of carbohydrates (cellulose and hemicelluloses) and lignin from biomass using DESs, with particular emphasis on the effects of DES types and pretreatment parameters on fractionation efficiency. The subsequent conversion and upgrading of the DES-fractionated products (i.e., carbohydrates and lignin) are comprehensively analyzed. Finally, the challenges and future prospects of lignocellulose biomass fractionation using DESs are proposed in view of the existing limitations. This review provides an in-depth understanding of lignocellulose biomass fractionation during DESs processing, offering insights to improve current pretreatment methods and/or to explore new pretreatment methods aimed at mitigating the global energy crisis.
