The agri-food industry creates a vast amount of waste each year.
This is not just a problem for waste management, in terms of
finding space to store waste and preventing escape of harmful waste
into the environment; it also represents a loss of resources: the
chemicals and energy which have gone into the production of this
waste. If current waste streams can be converted into useful
resources this will have multiple benefits by reducing the amount
of waste sent to landfill or similar, reducing the need for other
feedstocks and removing the pressure from feedstocks that could be
used as food. Research into the different types of waste produced
by the agri-food industry and approaches to converting them into
useful chemicals or chemical feedstocks has advanced rapidly over
the last few years. Covering the latest developments in the
valorisation of food and agricultural waste, such as valorisation
of citrus peel and industrial wastes, this book is a great resource
for researchers interested in waste management, sustainability and
the circular economy.
