Valorization of cocoa, tea and coffee processing by-products-wastes
Adv Food Nutr Res. 2023;107:91-130. doi: 10.1016/bs.afnr.2023.03.003. Epub 2023 Apr 7.ABSTRACTThe growing threat of food insecurity together with some challenges in demography, health, malnutrition, and income instability around the globe has led researchers to take sustainable solutions to ensure secure production and distribution of food. The last decades have been remarkable in the agri-food supply chain for many food industries. However, vast quantities of food by-products and wastes are generated each year. These products are generally disposed in the environment, which could have remarkable adverse effects on the env...

Valorization of fruit and vegetable processing by-products/wastes
Adv Food Nutr Res. 2023;107:1-39. doi: 10.1016/bs.afnr.2023.06.002. Epub 2023 Sep 22.ABSTRACTFruit and vegetable processing by-products and wastes are of great importance due to their high production volumes and their composition containing different functional compounds. Particularly, apple, grape, citrus, and tomato pomaces, potato peel, olive mill wastewater, olive pomace and olive leaves are the main by-products that are produced during processing. Besides conventional techniques, ultrasound-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, pressurized liquid extraction (sub-critical water extraction), supercritical ...

Valorization of wastes and by-products of nuts, seeds, cereals and legumes processing
Adv Food Nutr Res. 2023;107:131-174. doi: 10.1016/bs.afnr.2023.03.004. Epub 2023 Apr 1.ABSTRACTWastes and by-products of nuts, seeds, cereals and legumes carry a unique potential for valorization into value-added ingredients due to their protein, dietary fiber, antioxidant, vitamin and mineral contents. The most crucial factor in the recovery of value-added ingredients and bioactives from the wastes and by-products is the utilization of the most efficient extraction technique. This work is an overview of the classification of wastes and by-products of nuts, seeds, cereals and legumes processing, the methods used in the ext...
