Fruit and Vegetable Waste Utilization and Sustainability presents strategies to address the amount of waste generated from the industrial processing of fruits and vegetables. Divided into three sections, section one addresses the valorization of fruit and vegetable waste for high-value products. Section two focuses on the techno-economic assessment of fruit and vegetable biorefinery/valorization and addresses environmental impacts through real-life examples of the life cycle assessment. Section three presents integrated biorefineries, policies, and case studies. Food scientists and nutrition researchers, as well as food industry professionals working toward zero waste and academics and students studying related fields, are sure to benefit from this reference. Includes information on the integration of processes and technologies for biorefinery conceptualization Addresses both agricultural and industrial fruit and vegetable waste Contains definitions, case studies, applications, and more
