I don't think that there would be any temperature used to fully remove all phenols from wood. You can't have 0% moisture wood for various reasons(even if somehow achieved it would never last permanently), and based on evidence from others kiln dried wood does still end up having a pine scent - phenols definitely aren't ever fully removed although many people do keep this myth going!
