“…Previous results of the research group indicate that materials prepared from beer production residues, containing mainly phosphorous, calcium, magnesium and silicon could be employed as scaffolds for osteoblast growth (Martin-Luengo et al, 2011b). Only the inorganic part of the residues was considered in that work, while in this study, also valuable nutraceutical extracts and pectin were obtained, thus improving the previous process.…”

The work presented here uses apple pomace (AP), an industrial waste from apple juice and cider production as a renewable raw material (RRM), to obtain materials that can be utilized as biocompatible scaffolds for osteoblasts and chondrocytes, employed in tissue engineering, valuable extracts that can be used as nutraceuticals and pectin. All of these have much higher value than the original raw material, pectin can be priced up to 1 euro/g, chlorogenic acid is ca. 120 euros/g, caffeic acid 3-5 euros/g and especially the scaffolds that are usually made by synthetic methods using non-renewable raw materials with high fabrication costs and sold at prices higher than 100 euros/g, while the residues used here have prices lower than 100 euros per ton. Thus, there are clear environmental and financial incentives in transforming this waste material into valuable substances and materials. As indicated in the Graphical Abstract, the procedure followed consists in sequential extractions of antioxidants, pectin and finally the preparation of a biocompatible material, giving priority to the latter due to its importance as a renewable scaffold for tissue engineering. From a literature search, to date, although separate ways of valorisation have been applied to this kind of waste, the sequential multivalorization adopted here, has not been previously attempted. Furthermore, biocompatible scaffolds from AP have not been described.

“…The waste is readily available and cheap. Agricultural waste has been proven to serve as a good replacement option which can be used as biomaterials in therapies that replaces bone for the growth of osteoblasts [11]. Avian eggshell is an agricultural waste that received attention and has the potential of being used in medical and dental therapy.…”

The conversion of waste obtained from agricultural processes into biocompatible materials (biomaterials) used in medical surgery is a strategy that will add more value in waste utilization. This strategy has successfully turned the rather untransformed wastes into high value products. Eggshell is an agricultural waste largely considered as useless and is discarded mostly because it contributes to pollution. This waste has potential for producing hydroxyapatite, a major component found in bone and teeth. Hydroxyapatite is an excellent material used in bone repair and tissue regeneration. The use of eggshell to generate hydroxyapatite will reduce the pollution effect of the waste and the subsequent conversion of the waste into a highly valuable product. In this paper, we reviewed the utilization of this agricultural waste (eggshell) in producing hydroxyapatite. The process of transforming eggshell into hydroxyapatite and nanohydroxyapatite is an environmentally friendly process. Eggshell based hydroxyapatite and nanohydroxyapatite stand as good chance of reducing the cost of treatment in bone repair or replacement with little impact on the environment.

“…Results from TG-DTA indicated that the thermal behaviour of the three samples under air treatment was practically identical, with total weight losses found of ca. 97 % of the initial mass, 8 % due to loss of volatile matter and water at T < 200 °C, 55 % loss at T = 200-380 °C caused by the decomposition of organic matter (mainly cellulose and hemicellulose) and finally a 34 % lost for T = 380-600 °C, corresponding to the decomposition of lignin [48,49]. For a more detailed explanation the results obtained with sample BBM Lerida are shown in Figure 15b.…”

“…With the aim to convert waste into value-added products agricultural wastes (such as beer bagasse) have been investigated as potential renewable raw materials to develop bone scaffolds capable to support osteoblast growth for bone regeneration applications. Materials prepared here with residues from beer production contain P, Si, Ca and Mg as main components, which are also cations present in bone [11,48]. Furthermore, the use of agricultural wastes to provide renewable raw materials for more advanced applications is of great interest giving value-added products that may lead to a significant reduction in waste accumulation.…”
