“…Agrowastes are being incorporated into green buildings because they are usually more economical at the long run. This led to the development of new environmentally friendly technologies for turning agricultural residues like maize cob, rice husk, groundnut shell [10,11] coconut coirs, durian peel [12,13] bamboo [14], bagasse, wheat straw, chir pine needles, chilli pepper stalks [15] woven cotton fabrics, rubber wood [16] cotton stalks, red cedar [17] and banana stem among others into quality value-added composite particle board products using conventional formaldehyde-based resins [2]. Some works have been done on development of composite particle and ceiling boards from both industrial and agricultural products in Nigeria.…”

“…Agro and industrial wastes are being used in green buildings since they are typically more cost-effective and more environmentally friendly in the long term. This resulted in the development of new sustainable technologies for converting agricultural residues such as rice husk, maize cob, groundnut shell [164,165], durian peel [166,167], coconut coir, chir pine needles, wheat straw, bamboo [168], bagasse, chili pepper stalks [169], woven cotton fabrics, rubber wood, red cedar [170], cotton stalks, banana stem, and sawdust, among others, into high-quality value-added.…”

The several furniture-making phases, from cutting to processing to polishing, produce a significant volume of sawdust of differing grades. The extraction and disposal of such waste in developing countries with no established or sustainable methods is an increasing problem, frequently posing environmental challenges. Sawdust is one of the most underused wood waste portions, with mounds dispersed around the region, detracting from its visual appeal and causing other ecological concerns. This study investigated potential applications of sawdust as it concerns sustainable development. It sought to employ an extensive systematic literature review to establish that sawdust, which is often a nuisance at sawmills, may be put to beneficial uses. Four cardinal focus areas of this study are (i) energy generation, (ii) environmental protection/pollution containment, (iii) building construction, and (iv) water treatment/supply. Specifically, the study dealt with the feasibility of energy generation from sawdust through sawdust cook stoves, briquetting, and pyrolysis; pollution containment through sawdust-derived adsorbent; affordable building construction through sawdust-based ceiling boards and particles boards; and (iv) water treatment using point of use (PoU) sawdust-clay water filter. Based on over two hundred (200) published papers consulted in this study, it was strongly established that sawdust had found successful wide application in all four thematic areas with strategic connection to the objectives of SDGs 3.0, 6.0, 7.0, 9.0, 11.0 and 12.0. This research believes that emphasis on sustainable sawdust management can help transform the over 1.5 million tonnes of sawdust waste burned or dumped indiscriminately into value-added products each year.

“…As scientists and clinicians attach more importance to medicinal plants, the demand for tannins in the world is increasing because of their wide application in cosmeceuticals and food. They are primarily applied in leather coating to take the place of phenol in rubber products (Khanbabaee & Van Ree, 2001; Mgbemene et al., 2014; Sousa & de Brito, 2015). In addition, they are considered to be natural antioxidants and vital agents in pharmaceutical industries (Min et al., 2008; Sultana et al., 2007).…”

Pyracantha is a plant with edible and medicinal value and widely distributed from eastern Asia to southern Europe but is underutilized and has great potential. As scientists gradually study its properties, it was found that Pyracantha contains various phytochemical components such as pigments and phospholipids. Meanwhile, Pyracantha is also rich in phenolic substances, such as flavonoids. The extract of Pyracantha shows strong biological properties, such as inhibition of tyrosinase activity, anti‐oxidative, and tumor‐preventive effects. Pyracantha bioavailability releases quantities of compounds in the food matrix from the digestive process that are important for its health‐promoting properties. The extraction of biologically active substances in Pyracantha would be applied in various aspects. Their extracts can also be used as health food, food additives, and cosmetics. As the interaction of phytochemicals, proteins, and phenolic compounds can affect the pharmacological activity and bioavailability of Pyracantha, it is important to understand the mechanism of effect, which can further allow consumers to choose a healthier Pyracantha dietary culture. This review aims to prove the nutritional components and pharmacological activities of Pyracantha and to make consumers better aware of the benefits of Pyracantha in connection with their bioavailability and application, in order to provide a reference for further research and development of Pyracantha resources.
