    Abstract We are pleased to present this book, which is a reprint of articles from the Special Issue entitled "Extraction Strategies to Recover Bioactive Compounds, Incorporation into Food, and Health Benefits" published online in the open access journal Foods (ISSN 2304-8158) from 2019 to 2020 (available at: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/foods/special_issues/extraction). Firstly, this book gathers studies addressing several strategies applied to obtain bioactive products and extracts, not only from food matrices but also from agri-food byproducts, which can serve as new natural additives, nutraceuticals, and functional ingredients for pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food industries. In particular, free and bound phenolic compounds are explored in buckwheat, sesame, and olive leafy byproducts. Overall, these studies outline new valorization methods and offer new opportunities for alternative practices in the agro-industrial sector that help to migrate toward a circular bioeconomy model. This book also presents studies that predict bioactive components in fruits through mathematical tools and support the formulation of a novel beverage rich in resveratrol, a phenolic compound whose bioactivity is well recognized

    Abstract Biodiesel production currently follows a first-generation model using edible oils as raw materials. Such a production model is unsustainable, considering that it is limited by the high cost of edible oils, competes with the food sector, and is linked to deforestation and other environmental threats. Changing the raw material base to non-edible oils provides an opportunity to increase the sustainability of the biodiesel industry and to avoid conflicts with food production. Processing non-edible oilseeds for extracting the oil to be used for producing biodiesel generates large amounts of residues, such as de-oiled cakes, seed husks, and fruit shells and pods as well as plant stems and leaves resulting from pruning and other agronomy practices. Most of those residues are currently disposed of by burning or used in a suboptimal way. Bioconversion following the sugar platform route, anaerobic digestion, or enzyme production provides means for upgrading them to advanced biofuels and high-added value products. Bioconversion of plant biomass, including oilseed residues, requires pretreatment to enhance their susceptibility to enzymes and microorganisms. This review provides an outlook on bioconversion approaches applicable to different residues of oilseed-bearing plant species. Recent reports on the pretreatment of non-edible oilseed residues for enhancing their bioconversion through either the sugar platform route or anaerobic digestion are critically discussed. This review is based on an exhaustive Web of Science search performed in January–May 2023.

    Abstract Three types of silver/silver chloride nanoparticles were obtained by green synthesis from three types of microbial biomass. Their biocidal capacity was tested against six microorganisms. Two filamentous fungi were used that had previously demonstrated the ability to synthesise nanoparticles, Penicillium sp. 8L2 and Botryosphaeria rhodina MAMB-05. Also, the synthesis capacity of a yeast, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa 1S1, was evaluated. The original protocols underwent slight modifications. At the same time, the fractional inhibitory concentration was obtained. The interaction between specific antibiotics and the nanoparticles that showed the greatest biocidal capacity came from Penicillium sp.8L2, and it was studied further. All nanoparticles were characterised by UV-vis spectrophotometry and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Also, their size distribution was analysed, which was in the range of 4 to 34 nm. The biocidal capacity of the nanoparticles for a group of bacteria and fungi was studied, presenting very low values in the range of 2.5-10 µg/mL for bacteria and 4-256 µg/mL for fungi. The interactions between the nanoparticles synthesised by Penicillium sp. 8L2 and a group of specific antibiotics for the tested microorganisms were also studied, proving that there was a synergistic interaction with vancomycin and ciprofloxacin and Staphylococcus epidermidis CECT 4183 and Escherichia coli CECT 101 bacteria, respectively.

    Abstract The potential of olive wastes for development of a multi-product biorefinery was investigated. Different parts of olive wastes, i.e., stone, pomace, leaves, and wood, were subjected to liquid hot water, organosolv, and acid-catalyzed organosolv (ACO) pretreatments prior to bioconversion through three different scenarios. The first scenario, i.e., anaerobic digestion of substrates for biogas production, yielded 219.3 m³ biomethane per hectare of olive trees, equated to 247.4 L gasoline. The highest methane production of 103.3 m³ was attributed to liquid hot water pretreated wood and ACO increased methane yield for leaf and stone samples by 200 and 33%, respectively. The second scenario, i.e., fermentation of wastes for bioethanol production, resulted in 295.9 L bioethanol per hectare of olive trees, equivalent to 196.1 L gasoline. Organosolv pretreated wood with 82.9% production yield and 152.5 L bioethanol constitutes this plan's dominant part. The ACO pretreatment improved fermentation yield for pomace and stone samples by 49% and 53%, respectively. The third scenario, included the utilization of olive wastes in bioethanol production, anaerobic digestion of fermentation residues, and lignin separation, resulted in 295.9 L bioethanol, 137.2 m³ biomethane, and 347.1 kg lignin, equated with 521.6 L gasoline. Furthermore, the remaining oil content in pomace and stone samples was 17% and 20%, respectively, which could be used for biodiesel production. Overall, olive wastes processing through an integrated biorefinery plant with multiple products significantly improved the energy recovery of the whole plant.

    Abstract Microwave-assisted water extraction (MAWE) was evaluated to obtain the valuable bioactive compounds hydroxytyrosol and mannitol from exhausted olive pomace (EOP). The influence of the operational parameters solid loading (3–15%, w/v), temperature (40–100 °C), and extraction time (4–40 min) was studied using an experimental design. The optimized conditions maximizing their joint extraction were 12% w/v solid loading, 100 °C temperature, and 16 min. It was possible to solubilize 5.87 mg of hydroxytyrosol/g EOP and 46.70 mg mannitol/g EOP. The extracts were also further characterized by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry, which detected other hydroxytyrosol derivatives such as oleacein, verbascoside, and oleuropein. Moreover, the applied MAWE conditions promoted the co-extraction of proteinaceus material, which was also evaluated. In order to carry out an integral valorization of this waste, the extracted EOP solid was further evaluated chemically and microscopically before recovering the bioactive triterpenes. In particular, maslinic acid and oleanolic acid were obtained, 9.54 mg/g extracted solid and 3.60 mg/g extracted solid, respectively. Overall, MAWE can be applied as a first stage in the fractionation of EOP to support its valorization in a biorefinery framework.
