“…Fruit extracts cannot always replace traditional preservatives, as antioxidant power and stability are more sensitive. Some pilot-scale extractions and simulations of real processes have been performed [45,99,102], but further studies are needed to assess the potential application of each red fruit, as new berries with interesting properties are continuously appearing. Although there are some in vivo studies [103,104], and reviews [35,105], it is necessary to evaluate the obtained extracts in specific products such as creams, nutraceuticals or functional foods.…”

Red Fruits: Extraction of Antioxidants, Phenolic Content, and Radical Scavenging Determination: A Review

2017

Red fruits, as rich antioxidant foods, have gained over recent years capital importance for consumers and manufacturers. The industrial extraction of the phenolic molecules from this source has been taking place with the conventional solvent extraction method. New non-conventional extraction methods have been devised as environmentally friendly alternatives to the former method, such as ultrasound, microwave, and pressure assisted extractions. The aim of this review is to compile the results of recent studies using different extraction methodologies, identify the red fruits with higher antioxidant activity, and give a global overview of the research trends regarding this topic. As the amount of data available is overwhelming, only results referring to berries are included, leaving aside other plant parts such as roots, stems, or even buds and flowers. Several researchers have drawn attention to the efficacy of non-conventional extraction methods, accomplishing similar or even better results using these new techniques. Some pilot-scale trials have been performed, corroborating the applicability of green alternative methods to the industrial scale. Blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) and bilberries (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) emerge as the berries with the highest antioxidant content and capacity. However, several new up and coming berries are gaining attention due to global availability and elevated anthocyanin content.

“…A considerable amount of spent blackberry pulp (SBP) is generated from this production chain as the main residue, given that only 20% of the fruit mass is processed and the remainder is discarded. Both the fruit and the remaining SBP contain phenolic compounds (mainly anthocyanins) with antioxidant activity that is desirable in pharmaceutical, food, and chemical applications, as well as lignocellulosic biomass that can be used in different applications …”

Moving from fossil‐based economies to bio‐based economies is one of humanity's most important necessities. Bio‐based economies are sustainable alternative ways to obtain chemicals, materials, and energy, and biorefineries have been proposed as promising technological schemes for this purpose. However, the economic performance of biorefineries is strongly related to the scale of the process, as different elements (energy consumption, equipment cost, etc.) vary to different degrees when the scale varies. This situation shows the importance of evaluating the performance of the biorefinery at different scales (analysis of scale) from the design stages. The problem with the analysis of these scales is that there is no unanimous definition of ‘scale’ and the term is used imprecisely to refer to the raw material or product. Taking this into consideration, this work proposed a strategy for determining the Minimum Processing Scale for Economic Feasibility (MPSEF) and identifying the minimum scale at which a given biorefinery can operate. As study cases, three different biorefineries, based on different raw materials (cocoyam, Andes berry, and coffee cut stems) were used to exemplify the applicability of the design strategy. The MPSEF calculated for Andes berry, coffee cut stems, and cocoyam‐based biorefineries were 9.27, 35.6 and 683 ton day−1, respectively. These results showed the application of the design strategy and how it allows the determination of the minimum amount of feedstock to be processed to achieve a positive economic performance, and from this point, to calculate the rate of return that an investor would require and the appropriate scale to achieve it. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd

Latin America possesses expansive natural resources, which has attracted scientists from several areas to study means of improving the use of these resources. Supercritical fluids have been used for such purposes in many technological applications. Therefore, this paper provides an overview of Latin America scientific findings on supercritical technologies. Web of Science and Scopus were used as reference databases to search for information dated from 2004-2013. The Latin-American studies were classified into 6 main areas: extraction & mathematical modeling (57%), emerging applications (15%), thermodynamics & fundamentals (9%), reviews & perspectives (8%), reactions in supercritical media (7%) and analytical applications (4%). A compilation of scientific documents from 1994-2003 indicates that supercritical technology has progress greatly over the last 10 years in the major scientific countries in Latin America, such as Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Mexico and Colombia. These advances are associated with the development of new research subjects. Emerging applications, such as micronization and the encapsulation of nanoparticles, adsorption processes, gas sensors development, power generation and bioresidue hydrolyzation, are reported.
