Palm Trees and Fruits Residues: Recent Advances for Integrated and Sustainable Management places the wastes of palm trees and fruit residues in the international context of sustainable development, providing sustainable applications that are detailed based on sector to help readers from specific fields identify applications. Furthermore, successful processing case studies using valorization are presented. As the expansion of palm tree fruit crops processing industries (manufacture of syrup, honey, non-alcoholic beverages, flours, confectionery products, fruit paste, etc.) is generating growing quantities of wastes in different forms, this book covers sustainable aspects.

Written by an international team of contributors, this title is aimed at professionals and enterprises who aspire to develop real, high-scale industrial applications for palm tree and fruit residue valorization.

Includes palm tree wastes and fruit processing by-products, their quantification and classification
Brings identification, quantification and characterization of palm-tree and fruit wastes
Thoroughly explores biotechnological, agricultural, environmental and energy applications of fruit processing by-products
Contains case studies of a palm tree fruit processing by-products valorization

Dr. Mejdi Jeguirim is a Professor at the University of Haute Alsace (France) in the field of energy, process engineering, and kinetics modeling. He has two main research interests, namely biomass valorization (pyrolysis, gasification, and combustion) and exhaust gas treatment (NOx and soot abatement as well as volatile organic compounds’ elimination). He is a prolific author of journal articles and book chapters and is a member of the editorial board of the following international journals: Energy (Elsevier), Energies (MDPI), Energy for Sustainable Development (Elsevier), Biofuels (Taylor & Francis), International Journal of Green Energy (Taylor & Francis). He has received the French National Research Excellence Award for researchers with a high level of scientific activity for the 2009-2012, 2013-2016, 2017-2020 and 2021-2024 periods. Since 2019, Dr. Jeguirim has been added to the World’s Top 2% Scientists list established by Stanford University in collaboration with Elsevier. For Elsevier, he is also the series editor of the Advances in Renewable Energy Technologies series. Dr. Besma Khiari is a Professor at the University of Carthage (Tunisia) in the field of energy and environment processes, applied mainly to wastes. Recovery from urban, agricultural and industrial wastes is the main objective of the different papers, books, academic supervisions and industrial projects, she took part in. Her expertise in the area best met the needs and expectations of professionals such as engineering companies, design offices, health services, environmental businesses and units. Dr. Salah Jellali serves as an associate professor at the Centre for Environmental Studies & Research, Sultan Qaboos University, Sultanate of Oman. His research interests include wastewaters treatment by low cost materials, nutrients recovery from wastewaters and reuse in agriculture, local water management, and groundwater flow and pollutants transport modelling for a sustainable management. He was involved in various national and international projects regarding the cited above topics. He has co-authored more than 50 referred international journal papers in his research field. He was involved in the management of several international conferences and scientific journal special issues related to wastes/wastewaters sustainable management. He acted as a national and international expert for the evaluation of research projects related to the domain of water/wastes management. He was the holder of the ministerial award of rural engineering diploma in 1994 and the presidential award for the best national supervised PhD thesis in 2018.
