## Abstract This study used two different approaches to model changes in biomass composition during microwave‐based pretreatment of switchgrass: kinetic modeling using a time‐dependent rate coefficient, and a Mamdani‐type fuzzy inference system. In both modeling approaches, the dielectric loss tang
