How food wastes can be converted into new products: European legislation and analysis of enzymatic hydrolysis
The generated food waste has a significant economic and environmental impact. Since most of this is considered nutrient-rich substrate, it can be reduced or converted to avoid negative effects. In recent years, new technologies have increasingly focused on this aim by extracting and recovering valuable components for the formulation of new products. Herein, this review analyses food waste management strategies and emerging scientific advancements. Among these, enzymatic hydrolysis represents a promising sustainable alternative to traditional chemical extraction. Unlike chemical methods, it operates under mild conditions, reducing energy consumption and harmful by-products, while efficiently recovering fibres, proteins, phenolic compounds, and other biomolecules of interest from food waste. Furthermore, its effectiveness can be significantly enhanced when combined with other techniques. However, most of these applications are currently at the laboratory scale, and a thorough assessment of the potential benefits and the feasibility at an industrial level is required. In this context, integrating enzymatic hydrolysis within circular economy models can further improve resource efficiency by promoting waste valorisation in industrial applications. This approach aligns with sustainable development goals, fostering the creation of bio-based products and reducing dependence on non-renewable resources. Despite facing challenges such as regulatory constraints and the need for scalable, cost-effective processes, the development of innovative and sustainable practices can bring significant economic, social, and environmental benefits.
期刊介绍:
New Biotechnology is the official journal of the European Federation of Biotechnology (EFB) and is published bimonthly. It covers both the science of biotechnology and its surrounding political, business and financial milieu. The journal publishes peer-reviewed basic research papers, authoritative reviews, feature articles and opinions in all areas of biotechnology. It reflects the full diversity of current biotechnology science, particularly those advances in research and practice that open opportunities for exploitation of knowledge, commercially or otherwise, together with news, discussion and comment on broader issues of general interest and concern. The outlook is fully international.
The scope of the journal includes the research, industrial and commercial aspects of biotechnology, in areas such as: Healthcare and Pharmaceuticals; Food and Agriculture; Biofuels; Genetic Engineering and Molecular Biology; Genomics and Synthetic Biology; Nanotechnology; Environment and Biodiversity; Biocatalysis; Bioremediation; Process engineering.
