“…The synthetic films occupy a large proportion in the field of food packaging for their good gas and liquid barrier characteristics and mechanical properties, low-cost and durability. However, the resistance to degradation of synthetic films made of petroleum results in serious environmental pollution, called white pollution [1].…”

Application of Protein-Based Films and Coatings for Food Packaging: A Review

As the IV generation of packaging, biopolymers, with the advantages of biodegradability, process ability, combination possibilities and no pollution to food, have become the leading food packaging materials. Biopolymers can be directly extracted from biomass, synthesized from bioderived monomers and produced directly by microorganisms which are all abundant and renewable. The raw materials used to produce biopolymers are low-cost, some even coming from agrion dustrial waste. This review summarized the advances in protein-based films and coatings for food packaging. The materials studied to develop protein-based packaging films and coatings can be divided into two classes: plant proteins and animal proteins. Parts of proteins are referred in this review, including plant proteins i.e., gluten, soy proteins and zein, and animal proteins i.e., casein, whey and gelatin. Films and coatings based on these proteins have excellent gas barrier properties and satisfactory mechanical properties. However, the hydrophilicity of proteins makes the protein-based films present poor water barrier characteristics. The application of plasticizers and the corresponding post-treatments can make the properties of the protein-based films and coatings improved. The addition of active compounds into protein-based films can effectively inhibit or delay the growth of microorganisms and the oxidation of lipids. The review also summarized the research about the storage requirements of various foods that can provide corresponding guidance for the preparation of food packaging materials. Numerous application examples of protein-based films and coatings in food packaging also confirm their important role in food packaging materials.

“…Its increasingly widespread use represents a significant reduction in the quantity of oil employed, as well as in the emissions of harmful gases into the atmosphere. [ 13 ] Additionally, another advantage in comparison to fossil gas is that using organic wastes as the raw material to obtain biomethane helps to reduce pollution from organic waste themselves. [ 106 ] Regarding biomethane production, anaerobic digestion is one of the most efficient techniques because of the increase in nutrient recovery and the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.…”

“…Some studies on the revalorization of banana residues highlight the potential use of this waste as a substrate to produce methane (40–64% CH 4 content in biogas). [ 13 ] Saha et al. [ 109 ] used a mixture of orange, banana, grape, and pineapple wastes, obtaining ≈350 mL of methane from 80 g of residue after 86 days of digestion.…”

Fruit and vegetable wastes (FVW) are some of the most abundant agro‐industrial wastes. This residual biomass can be used to obtain biofuels such as bioethanol, biomethane, biohydrogen, and biobutanol. Additionally, FVW can also be employed as a raw material for recovering bioactive compounds (antioxidants, enzymes, or antibiotics) and to produce organic acids of industrial interest (citric acid, lactic acid, acetic acid). However, the use of these wastes as a substrate to obtain the mentioned value‐added products usually requires several steps, including different pre‐treatments, microbial biotransformation, and separation and purification processes. The aim of this work is to provide an overview of the different products that can be obtained from FVW, as well as the technologies that can be employed in the revalorization procedures.
