This thesis explores novel applications which utilize ionic liquids and electrolyte solutions in treatment of biomass for obtaining high-quality value-added products, such as cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin as relatively pure fractions, which can be further processed into useful materials and chemicals. Albeit ionic liquids have been described as chemically and thermally highly stable solvents, the potential drawbacks of ionic liquids and electrolyte solutions regarding to their possible degradation in common processing temperatures are discussed in detail in this thesis. The potential of a highly hydrophilic aqueous organic electrolyte solution tetra-n-butylphosphonium hydroxide [P4444][OH] was studied in fractionation of wheat straw...
