“…This study shows that agricultural wastes effectively remove diazinon from water, and their usage is environmentally friendly. Maia et al [ 149 ] created activated carbon using banana peel waste using NaOH and pyrolysis to remove methylene blue. The results revealed that the activated carbon derived from banana peel waste has a vast surface area, which is required to remove blue methylene.…”

The food production industry is a significant contributor to the generation of millions of tonnes of waste every day. With the increasing public concern about waste production, utilizing the waste generated from popular fruits and vegetables, which are rich in high-added-value compounds, has become a focal point. By efficiently utilizing food waste, such as waste from the fruit and vegetable industries, we can adopt a sustainable consumption and production pattern that aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This paper provides an overview of the high-added-value compounds derived from fruit and vegetable waste and their sources. The inclusion of bioactive compounds with antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antibrowning properties can enhance the quality of materials due to the high phenolic content present in them. Waste materials such as peels, seeds, kernels, and pomace are also actively employed as adsorbents, natural colorants, indicators, and enzymes in the food industry. Therefore, this article compiles all consumer-applicable uses of fruit and vegetable waste into a single document.

“…37 Those compounds can also be modified by hydrolysis or thermal treatments that release digestible sugars and, in turn, inactivate substances such as tannins and other anti-nutrients until they reach safe levels for consumption. 25,3618 However, such treatments could be expensive and hinder applicability at a large scale. Another alternative is the extraction of fiber to be used as a prebiotic in human or animal food.…”

Banana and plantain (Musa spp.) are among the most popular crops especially in tropical and sub-tropical zones. Musa spp. is a unique, perennial, single-harvest plant that after fruit harvesting is decapitated and generates large amounts of waste and by-products: leaves and pseudostem. Fruit processing also generates waste peels and discarded pieces. Recent research has demonstrated that this type of organic substrate represents a potentially valuable resource that can be developed into high-value products. These developments are critically reviewed in this article, which includes a summary of the composition and biocompounds contained in pseudostem and peel, the use of Musa spp. waste in animal and human feed and the obtention of fiber to make paper, rope, handcrafts and combustion materials. On the other hand, the potential for polysaccharides to be fermented and transformed into ethanol, methane or hydrogen, the obtention of single-cell protein (microbial protein) and the use of solid residues for composting or as a substrate for mushrooms cultivation have also been evaluated. The applications described represent great opportunities for economic benefits from this agro-industrial waste. A scheme for the integrated utilization of Musa spp. waste in a biorefinery approach is presented as well.

“…In tropical and subtropical regions, bananas are a common crop that are farmed for their fruit fiber or foliage, and the production has increased steadily over the last 20 years ( Mohd Zaini et al, 2022 ). Banana is a rich source of minerals, dietary fiber, sugar, vitamins and various polyphenolic compounds ( Yu et al, 2013 ).…”
