Overview

This study demonstrates the extraction of carotenoids and phenolics from carrot discards, highlighting sustainable use and food waste reduction.

Key Points

  • Extraction process using optimized conditions resulted in high yields of carotenoids and phenolics from carrot discards, promoting sustainable practices.
  • The Box–Behnken design identified optimal conditions that led to a significant increase in carotenoid retention and overall extraction yield.
  • Separation techniques produced a fibre-rich fraction and a bioactive powder, contributing to the creation of value-added food ingredients.
  • The findings support circular economy goals by converting food waste into functional ingredients, emphasizing the reduction of environmental impact.
