This new book addresses the reuse of food residue and byproduct valorization of fruits, vegetables, and seeds, providing a thorough survey of natural resource management and environmental issues that are at the heart of sustainability. It also discusses theoretical and experimental methods used to study different aspects of valorization techniques for agri-food wastes and byproducts management in parallel to conservation of nature.
Discusses reuse of food residue and byproduct valorization of foods. Provides theoretical and experimental methods of valorization techniques for agri-food wastes and byproducts management. Discusses sustainability challenges related to food wastes valorization along with emerging recovery technologies, and more.
