Wine production wastes, valorization, and perspectives
| Resumo: | The wine sector generates high quantities of residues that are still poorly exploited as feedstock. Normally, these wastes are directly discarded into the fields or burned, thus causing environmental problems. Wine production wastes, like vine pruning and grape pomace, are available at relatively low prices and are onsidered prime materials for biochemical conversion into added-value products. In this context, the reutilization of these wastes is very important not only for minimizing environmental impact but also for obtaining higher profitability. The main objective of the present chapter is to address what are the possible reutilizations and valorizations of these wastes. |
