Abstract

The pineapple is the most consumed fruit in the world, although its crown is discarded as waste. However, these pineapple crowns (PaCn) are rich in bioactive compounds and chemicals, offering vast potential for applications in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food and beverages, biofuels, bioplastics, paper and pulp products, etc. The previous review reports on the subject examined the development of sustainable materials derived from different pineapple wastes, i.e., peel, core, crown, and pomace in the bioenergy and other industrial sectors. However, they have not focused on application materials derived from waste PaCn. Hence, there is a scope for exploring the different application materials derived from PaCn. This first report thoroughly reviews waste pineapple crowns’ industrial potential, possibilities for by-product valorization, and their conversion process. Through the thorough literature review, it is perceived that various industries can derive multiple value-added products from waste PaCn, including 15 application materials such as nano/micro cellulose, activated carbon, enzymes, fibers, vanillic acid, bioadsorbent, regenerative cellulose, renewable aromatic compounds, pharmaceutical chemicals, reducing sugar, bioactive compounds, corrosion inhibitor, bio-oil, composite particles, and mortar. The waste of PaCn conversions has been shown to reduce waste generation, and the products derived from the conversion would support the waste-to-value concept.

废弃凤梨冠利用成增值产品的研究进展

菠萝是世界上消耗最多的水果，尽管它的冠被当作废物丢弃了。然而，这些菠萝冠（PaCn）富含生物活性化合物和化学物质，在制药、化妆品、食品和饮料、生物燃料、生物塑料、纸张和纸浆产品等方面具有巨大的应用潜力。以前关于这一主题的审查报告审查了从生物能源和其他工业部门的不同菠萝废物，即果皮、核、冠和渣中提取可持续材料的发展。然而，他们并没有把重点放在从废弃PaCn中提取的应用材料上。因此，有一个范围可以探索从PaCn派生的不同应用程序材料。这第一份报告全面回顾了废弃菠萝冠的工业潜力、副产品增值的可能性及其转化过程。通过深入的文献综述，我们发现各个行业可以从废PaCn中获得多种增值产品，包括纳米/微纤维素、活性炭、酶、纤维、香草酸、生物吸附剂、再生纤维素、可再生芳香族化合物、医药化学品、还原糖、生物活性化合物、缓蚀剂、生物油、复合颗粒、砂浆等15种应用材料。PaCn转换产生的废物已被证明可以减少废物的产生，从转换产生的产品将支持废物转化为价值的概念。图形抽象
