The winemaking industry process results in by-products called agro-industrial waste and is mainly composed of grape pomace. This by-product represents about 18% of the grape and results in waste disposal issues in the economic and environmental settings. The authors describe alternative green technologies for grape biomass valorization.

This volume in our Sustainability: Contributions through Science and Technology series reviews the use of alternative green technologies (pressurized liquid and super-critical fluid extractions) for grape biomass valorization. Environmental sustainability and circular economy are discussed in relation to agro-industrial waste in the winemaking industry. The waste contaminates water and soil and, in large quantities, it has been related to bad odors, a high content of organic matter in water, and greenhouse gas emissions over the entire winemaking industry. Here, the authors illustrate how green extraction of commercially valuable substances can be scaled up at an industrial level.

Features :

Reports on waste valorization in the winemaking industry and converting the waste into more useful products including oils, antioxidants and other valuable materials

Explores research which contributes to environmental sustainability and circular economy in the winemaking industry

Describes other ways to reduce the ecological footprint of the wine industry such as using less fertilizer, more benign pesticides and reduction of water footprint

Proposes options for a potential wine waste biorefining.

Reviews alternative uses of agro-industrial wine wastes as sources of additives for the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
