Abstract

Industrial bio-waste valorization is an alternative approach to reduce residues, waste disposals or landfills, essential to a sustainable development. This chapter deals with the valorization of a starch-based industrial waste into sugars employing ultrasound and microwave technologies. Potato peel is a product-specific waste with high starch content, a macromolecule that can be hydrolyzed into building blocks such as sugars. The combination of ultrasound and microwave technologies for starch degradation to explore synergetic interactions is developed in the second part of this chapter.
