Abstract
As indústrias de alimentos produzem diariamente grandes quantidades de subprodutos provenientes do processamento de leite, carne, cerveja, vinho, cana-de-açúcar, café, hortaliças e frutas, entre outros produtos. Os subprodutos alimentares gerados incluem cascas, sementes, caules, raízes, bagaço, resíduo de polpa e soro de leite. A falta de gestão sustentável associada aos baixos estímulos de aproveitamento desses subprodutos por meio da legislação vigente, estimula o descarte desses materiai sem aterros sanitários. No entanto, estudos apontam grande potencial no desenvolvimento de biomateriais utilizando subprodutos como fonte de máteria-prima, instigando o meio acadêmico e industrial na busca por novos materiais de caráter sustentável, possibilitando o aumento da receita, além de reduzir possíveis agentes poluidores. Diante disso, essa revisão tem como objetivo destacara aptidão de subprodutos alimentaresna formulação de biomateriais.
The food industries daily produce large amounts of by-products from the processing of milk, meat, beer, wine, sugar cane, coffee, vegetables and fruits, among other products. The food by-products generated include husks, seeds, stems, roots, pomace, pulp residue and whey. The lack of sustainable management associated with the low incentives to use these by-products through current legislation, encourages the disposal of these materials in sanitary landfills. However, studies point to great potential in the development of biomaterials using by-products as a source of raw material, instigating the academic and industrial environment in the search for new materials of a sustainable nature, enabling an increase in revenue, in addition to reducing possible polluting agents. Therefore, this review aims to highlight the aptitude of food by-products in the formulation of biomaterials.
