Fruits and Vegetables industry produces large volumes of wastes, both
solids and liquid, resulting f rom the production, preparation and
consumption of its products. Processing of fruits and vegetables produces
two types of waste - a solid waste of peel/skin, seeds, stones etc., a liquid
waste of juice and wash-waters. In some fruits the discarded portion can
be very high (e.g. mango 30-50%, banana 20%, orange 30-50%). These
wastes pose increasing disposal and potential severe pollution problems
and represent a loss of valuable biomass and nutrients. Beside their
pollution and hazard aspects, in many cases, fruits and vegetables
processing wastes might have a potential for conversion into useful
products of higher value as by-product, or even as raw material for other
industries, or for use as food or feed after biological treatment. The
composition of wastes emerging from fruits and vegetables processing
industry is extremely varied and depends on both the nature of the
product and the production technique employed. Furthermore, the
volume and concentration of the waste material will not be constant. This
may cause some problems in managing a consistent working process due
to fluctuations in the nature, composition and quantity of raw materials.
Quantity and quality of wastes is important on the decision of evaluation
of wastes.
