Abstract:
Various types of food wastes (FW) are generated in large quantities worldwide after their processing which consists of high level of polysaccharide materials. Majority of such wastes are discarded by the public and industries thus creating environmental nuisance. Therefore, such wastes should be treated properly. Bioremediation of food wastes is a modern technique where the wastes are transformed naturally or biologically in which contaminants are altered by microbes from their original state. These processes have own advantages as various sustainable products can be generated from the food wastes nowadays. The implementations of such methods are cost-effective, eco-friendly and can be adapted by all class of people. Although, bioremediation of food processing waste is not a new concept, but incorporation of genetic engineering and microbiology gives a valuable path to tackle with environmental contaminants. These techniques can be executed both in industries and laboratories. Herbicides, pesticides, insecticides and cleaning chemicals are new emerging contaminants which can be transformed into non toxic substances by bio remediating via autotrophic organisms.This chapter represents the general idea of bioremediation techniques and generation of value-added products from food wastes.
