The composition of extracts isolated from black alder bark by ‘green’ microwave assisted water extraction in the temperature range of 70–150 °C was studied using the wet chemistry Folin-Ciocalteu method and Py-GC-MS/FID. The composition data were compared with those of the extracts obtained at the same temperature by accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) of bark. It was shown that microwave assisted extraction, compared with ASE, resulted in more significant transition of major cell wall components, including hemicelluloses and phenolics of lignin origination, into the solution. Depending on the microwave assisted extraction regimes, products with different portion of major cell wall components and secondary phenolic metabolites can be isolated that enlarge the possibilities of products valorisation. Thus, a significant promotion of secondary phenolic metabolites’ transition into extracts as a result of microwave extraction was observed at 70 °C. At that time the relative portion of carbohydrates in extracts was increased at high temperature extraction, combining dynamic and isothermal microwave heating. Water extraction of black alder bark in a microwave extractor revealed 25–50% lower specific energy consumption and 1.8–2.6 times higher productivity in comparison with the conventional extraction, that is beneficial in view of the upscale and practical application of this innovative biomass processing.
