The liquid fuels production from biomass is one of the most efficient ways to energetic conversion, beyond the energy concentration, there are still economic and operational advantages due to transport and storage conditions. So, fast pyrolysis is the purpose of several researches all over the world for the production of bio-oils that can enrich the energetic supply. However, bio-oil has heterogeneous properties due to the biomass characteristics and to the operational conditions of the pyrolysis process. The present review aims to evaluate the state of art of the bio-oil production, their properties and their principal energetic ways of utilization.
