The book explores innovative technologies for converting agri-food byproducts into high-value products, including functional food ingredients, bioactive compounds, biodegradable packaging materials, bioenergy, biochar, activated carbon, and environmentally friendly adsorbents for water treatment. It highlights emerging approaches that support resource efficiency, waste minimization, circular bioeconomy, and climate resilience. Bringing together contributions from internationally recognized experts, this volume offers comprehensive coverage of recent scientific developments, industrial applications, and future research directions. It serves as an invaluable resource for researchers, academics, industry professionals, policymakers, and postgraduate students working in food science, agricultural engineering, environmental science, biotechnology, and sustainable development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDr. Faizan Ahmad is Assistant Professor in the Department of Post Harvest Engineering and Technology, Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, Aligarh Muslim University, India.
