“…The use of LCA allowed the identification of the most relevant environmental hot-spots that can be further improved. Similar approaches, adapted to each biomass, have been reported for other materials, such as legumes [ 39 ] and other vegetables [ 40 , 41 ], halophytes [ 42 ], and microalgae. This latter group of organisms are promising biomasses for biorefinery approaches based both on their typical chemical compositions and to the possibility of using other waste streams as feeds for their production.…”

The increasing interest in natural bioactive compounds is pushing the development of new extraction processes that may allow their recovery from a variety of different natural matrices and biomasses. These processes are clearly sought to be more environmentally friendly than the conventional alternatives that have traditionally been used and are closely related to the 6 principles of green extraction of natural products. In this trend article, the most critical aspects regarding the current state of this topic are described, showing the different lines followed to make extraction processes greener, illustrated by relevant examples. These include the implementation of new extraction technologies, the research on new bio-based solvents, and the development of new sequential process and biorefinery approaches to produce a full valorization of the natural sources. Moreover, the future outlook in the field is presented, in which the main areas of evolution are identified and discussed. Graphical abstract

“…Cashew pulp waste juice is also a promising source of bioproducts, once cashew tree cultivation is performed, primarily aiming for cashew nut production, in which cashews are considered as agricultural waste and a by-product of cashew nut production [54][55][56][57][58]. Cashew pulp is rich in bioactive compounds with anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antifungal properties.…”

In recent decades, biomasses from different industrial segments have created new interesting perspectives, including sustainable development. Moreover, reusing waste, such as biomass, also impacts the economy, i.e., the circular economy. The main biomasses and their applications are evident in the energy, food, chemistry, fine chemical, and pharmaceutical sectors. Several questions should be asked regarding the trending topic of the circular economy, including biomass availability and seasonality, energy demand (processes), and the real environmental impact. Thus, this review focuses on biomass collected from non-conventional (unusual technology at the industrial scale) food-processing residues, particularly from 2016 to 2023, to produce biomaterials and/or bioproducts for the food sector.

Tomato has antioxidant properties from polyphenols, but tomato by-products have been little studied, which can have significant added value for the pharmaceutical or food industry. Several polyphenol extraction processes cause variability in detected compounds and their concentrations, making it necessary to characterize each method for a suitable exploitation strategy. In this research, tomato by-products were first dried using an oven or a dehydrator, resulting in oven-dried extracts with higher polyphenols than dehydrator-dried ones. Four solid–liquid methods by Soxhlet extraction (SOX), stirring extraction (SE), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) were developed and employed for obtaining oven-dried extracts. Suitable and green extraction processes were carried out using different ethanol/water extractants, sample–extractant ratios, extraction times, and exposing conditions to physical energies, depending on optimal conditions calculated by multivariate optimization. Total polyphenols and antioxidant capacity indices and gallic acid, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, quercetin, and kaempferol concentrations were determined in extracts. Principal component analysis found an excellent relationship between caffeic acid and total polyphenol index and gallic acid and antioxidant capacity. SE and UAE extracted more amounts of all polyphenols, but UAE was exhaustive at only 5 min. MAE was also fast, completing extraction at 20 min, but reducing phenol concentration by around 30% than SE and UAE. SOX showed the lowest indices and phenol concentrations after a long extraction time. To sum up, the present study evidences the importance of the extraction method on the quality and quantity of polyphenols in tomato by-product extracts. Graphical Abstract
