The industrial processing of food generates residues that cause environmental and economic issues. The reuse of food waste, both at the industrial level and at home, addresses some of the sustainable development goals established by the Food and Agriculture Organization for 2030 (FAO agenda). Food waste recovery meets multiple purposes, as it takes advantage of food's interesting chemical and physical properties. For this reason, food by-products can be a major source of compounds in the biorefinery industry. This Reprint focuses on deeper research to comprehend the best conditions for the reuse of food by-products through activities, directed at the formulation, processing, preservation, and packaging of foodstuffs. In addition, since food industry by-products can potentially cause pollution, their use requires an extensive investigation of any contaminant presents, both from reuse processes and raw materials.
