Pineapple fruit husk.
Pineapple waste.The harvesting and processing of pineapples produces a large amount of waste, which is generally lost in spite of being a valuable source of dietary fibers, rich in antioxidants. Pineapple waste also contains bromelain, which is widely used in the food, supplement and cosmetic industries. In addition to these valuable products, nutrients for animal feed can be extracted from the residues of this fruit, while the more fibrous and therefore less digestible parts can be used to produce energy, such as biogas.
