Abstract:
According to the United Nations, approximately one-third of the food produced for human consumption is wasted. The actual linear \"Take-Make-Dispose\" model is nowadays obsolete and uneconomical for societies and the environment, while circular thinking in production systems and its effective adoption offers new opportunities and benefits. Following the \"Waste Framework Directive\" (2008/98/CE), the European Green Deal, and the actual Circular Economy Action Plan, when prevention is not possible, recovering an unavoidable food waste as a by-product represents a most promising pathway. Using last year\'s by-products, which are rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds, such as dietary fiber, polyphenols, and peptides, offer a wake-up call to the nutraceutical and cosmetic industry to invest and develop value-added products generated from food waste ingredients.
摘要:
根据联合国,大约三分之一的人类消费食品被浪费了。如今,实际的线性“Take-Make-Dispose”模型对于社会和环境来说已经过时且不经济,而生产系统中的循环思维及其有效采用提供了新的机会和好处。根据“废物框架指令”(2008/98/CE),欧洲绿色协议和实际的循环经济行动计划,当预防是不可能的,回收不可避免的食物废物作为副产品是最有希望的途径。使用去年的副产品,富含营养和生物活性化合物,比如膳食纤维,多酚,和肽,为营养保健和化妆品行业敲响警钟,投资和开发由食物垃圾成分产生的增值产品。
