This book puts together all aspects of valorization of vegetable
and fruit wastes (VFWs) into different biocommodities and platform
chemicals using fermentation and non-fermentation processes. VFWs
are a special group of solid waste (biomass) that needs to be
characterized to understand the nature of applications as raw
materials and to propose an appropriate methodology for
bioprocessing into value-added commodities. VFWs provide favorable
conditions for the growth of microorganisms, and this opens up
great opportunities for their use in fermentation processes. For
example, VFWs can be used as a solid support, carbon, and nutrient
source in fermentation for the production of a variety of
value-added biocommodities such as enzymes, single-cell proteins,
bioadsorbents, phenolic bioactive compounds, aroma and flavor
compounds, and platform chemicals like lactic acid, bioethanol, and
biobutanol. Researchers and academics in the area of environmental
science and engineering, chemical engineering, biotechnology, life
science, and food science and technology, undergraduate and
graduate students, industry professionals, and policymakers will
find this publication useful. Bioprocessing of agro-wastes is a
recent technology for developing novel bioproducts. This book will
also be of interest to the general public as a reference for all
those interested in waste management.
