Orange peel wasteThis work aims to evaluate from an energy and economic perspective the production of essential oil, pectin, and biogas as alternatives to valorize orange peel waste. For this, the chemical characterization, extraction of essential oil, and pectin of industrial of this residue ...
The increasing global population has led to a significant accumulation of food waste. It is important to focus on reducing food waste instead of disposal m
Depending on the physical properties of the biomass a mechanical pretreatment may be required. Soft biomass such as orange peel or onion waste is fed directly whereas garden prunings which include also small branches and wood pieces have to Conclusions A HTC pilot plant working in continuous ...
Biorefinery offers a sustainable green option to utilize the potential of waste product in optimum way to produce marketable bioproducts and bioenergy, while solving the issue of waste management and the greenhouse gas emissions [182]. The biorefinery based market is predicted to grow globally from ...
Orange wasteDilute acid pretreatmentPectinOrange wastes, including peel and pulp, were used as a biorefinery feedstock to produce pectin, ethanol, and biogas. The orange wastes were subjected to dilute acid treatment with sulfuric acid (1% w/v) at 94, 100, 140, and 180...
Innovative extraction configurations for the biorefining of a biomass waste (citrus peel) were developed in this work. Non-conventional energies, such as microwaves (MW) and ultrasounds (US), were directly irradiated to the fresh orange peel using a versatile MW coaxial dipole antenna. This ...
Investigation of the effectiveness of waste nut shell–based hydrochars in water treatment: a model study for the adsorption of methylene blue Article 06 July 2022 Banana peel as potential bioadsorbent toward removal of emerging contaminants from wastewater for sustainable environment: a review Art...
The Queen Pineapple of Tripura, India, renowned for its unique aroma and recently granted geographical indication, generates substantial waste (30–40% processing and on-farm waste). This study aims to utilize this waste as a sustainable raw material for bromelain recovery. Due to lack of data ...
Based on the obtained results, the integrated biorefinery of orange peel waste using ChEg50 in a multistep process was performed. Firstly, enantioselective kinetic resolution was performed (step I; ee = 83.2%, X = 35%), followed by isolation of the product 1-phenylethanol (step II; h = ...
The proposed biorefinery led to the production of 1.5 kg essential oils, 1.3 kg phenolic-rich extract, 34 kg pectin-rich extract and 68 kg bacterial cellulose from 1 t of orange peel waste.doi:10.1016/j.renene.2020.05.108Tsouko, Erminta...
