An eco-friendly product has been the primary agenda of twenty-first century of the global scientists. One of the main focuses is by-product recycling of food processing industries. It has been long time since food industry byproduct converted into energy and value added products. Potato processing is newly emerging food processing factories in developing countries, and potato is the fourth important crop globally. A dramatic food demand increment had shown in the past two decades. This leads to increase the number of food processing industries. Nowadays, food processing industries particularly processed potato manufactures are expanding and generate a huge volume of potato peel. This by-product causes environmental pollution due to decomposition. However, food byproducts like potato peel have essential organic matter. So this review introduces the potential use of potato peel as food preservative, pharmaceutical ingredient, renewable energy, and animal feed to promote eco-friendly food industries.

In this work cellulose/TiO flexible films coated with hydroxyapatite, aiming the development of electro-active orthopaedic scaffolds, were produced, applying sustainable procedures. The TiO nanoparticles were incorporated into the cellulose, extracted from potato peel, and the films were fabricated by the casting method. The hydroxyapatite, synthesized by the sol-gel technique, was electrodeposited onto the cellulose/TiO films, at room temperature.

The quest for natural preservation systems is on the rise due to health hazards associated with synthetic preservatives. The current study explores a significant research gap by investigating the antifungal potential of essential oil (EO) and modified potato peel starch (M-PPS)-based coatings to control the fungal contamination in peanut kernels, providing a sustainable food preservation system. Potato peel starch was extracted by water steeping and modified by autoclaving.

In this study, the researchers wanted to find out if potato peels (PP) and modified potato peels (MPP) could be used to remove Cu (II) ions from water solutions. The effect of adsorption parameters such as pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, and initial concentration were systematically optimized, and the adsorption kinetics and isotherms were investigated for potential use in real sample operations. The physicochemical properties and morphological structure of the adsorbent were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy to understand the Cu (II) ion adsorption mechanism.

Unlabelled: Potato peels are one of the most under-utilized wastes which can be highly beneficial to mankind. The red potato peel powder was prepared by using tray drying and vacuum-oven drying method. The proximate analysis of red potato peel powder was conducted followed by its characterization which includes FT-IR, XRD, TGA, DSC, and SEM.
