Full Description
Fruit Seeds and Peels for Sustainable Biomaterials covers how to use fruit and vegetable waste to produce bioplastics, which are environmentally-friendly alternatives to conventional petroleum-based plastics. The book offers promising opportunities to reduce the carbon footprint of the packaging industry while promoting recyclability, sustainability, and a circular economy. Chapters encompass different methods of waste valorization, providing a compilation of global research investigations regarding different fruit processing waste. The book showcases how to use these products in packaging applications to give food professionals and society improved, green, sustainable packaging as a suitable replacement for plastic polymers.
The book gives readers comprehensive insights into the potential of fruit seeds as a sustainable source of biomaterials, offering valuable scientific information on the concept of technologies and knowledge on the utilization of bio-based materials in food preservation that can help them minimize the use of traditional non-biodegradable plastic packaging materials.
