Description

Sustainable Applications of Pomegranate Peels serves as an invaluable resource to enhance pomegranate farming and fruit processing industries while minimizing environmental impacts. The book delves into multiple sustainable applications, spanning biotechnological, agricultural, environmental, and energy sectors. It provides in-depth identification, quantification, and characterization of pomegranate wastes along with their potential in livestock breeding. Notably, it explores the use of bioactive compounds from by-products in food products, and details pomegranate's health benefits, including antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. This comprehensive guide is essential for researchers, decision-makers, and industry professionals.

Key features

  • Covers pomegranate harvesting wastes and fruit processing by-products
  • Provides each pomegranate by-products' sustainable application detailed by sector category
  • Includes pomegranate processing by-products quantification and their classification
  • Gathers best practices for the rationalization of lignocellulosic materials to increase economic benefits
  • Explores pomegranate health and cosmetic benefits
