“Zero Waste” and “Green” Approaches towards Valorisation of Vegetable Residues

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2022
Among the waste valorisation strategies, particular attention is given to plant and agri-food biomasses. They are particularly valuable since they are produced in large amounts worldwide and have been widely studied since ancient times for the richness ...

Sustainable Cookies Enriched With Spent Coffee Grounds: A Study on Nutritional, Textural, and Sensory Properties

open access: yesJournal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Spent coffee grounds (SCGs) are the by‐products of the brewing process. There are financial and environmental consequences associated with the production of millions of tons of SCG every year. This research explores the possibility of using SCGs, a significant by‐product of the coffee industry, as a useful component in cookie recipes.

Green technologies for extracting plant waste functional ingredients and new food formulation: A review

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 89, Issue 12, Page 8156-8174, December 2024.
Abstract Nowadays, there is a growing interest in food waste recovery by both consumers and companies. Food waste of plant origin is a source of bioactive compounds, such as phenolic acids, anthocyanins, flavonoids, phytosterols, carotenoids, and tocopherols, with well‐known antioxidant, anti‐glycemic, and antimicrobial properties. The use of green and

Development and Characterization of Poly(butylene succinate‐co‐adipate)/Poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) with Cowpea Lignocellulosic Fibers as a Filler via Injection Molding and Extrusion Film‐Casting

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 309, Issue 8, August 2024.
This study explores the use of low‐value agricultural residues/fibers from a neglected African crop, cowpea as a filler in a poly(butylene succinate‐co‐adipate)/Poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydoxyvalerate) (PBSA/PHBV) blend matrix to produce biodegradable plastics.

Valorization of spent coffee ground by mixing with various types of residual biomass for pellet production: evaluation of solid biofuel properties at different mixtures

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 968-989, July/August 2024.
Abstract Coffee consumption is a daily habit for the majority of people worldwide, resulting in consistently large amounts of residue. Spent coffee ground (SCG) is the residue obtained during the brewing process. It represents an abundant source of energy biomass, or raw material for added value products but it is still largely unexploited.

Interest of Coffee Melanoidins as Sustainable Healthier Food Ingredients

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2021
Coffee melanoidins are generated by the Maillard reaction during the thermal processes occurring in the journey of coffee from the plant to the cup (during drying and roasting). Melanoidins, the brown pigments formed as the end products of this reaction,
