Abstract
After oil production from oilseeds, valuable by-products (cake/meal) remain, which could be valorized as a raw material for animal feed, biofuel production, and extraction of valuable components (proteins, polysaccharides, phenols, etc.). Considering the composition of oil industry by-products, regarding the high content of proteins and polysaccharides, these materials present a promising substrate for eco-friendly biopolymer packaging materials production. Biopolymer films production from almost all oil industry by-products, cakes, meals, protein isolates, and concentrates has been investigated. In addition to globally present oilseeds (soybean, sunflower, and rapeseed), there are locally used oilseeds, like pumpkin seed, peanut, sesame, and others, whose by-products have been evaluated as raw materials for green packaging material production. In this chapter, different oil industry by-products utilized (as well as products derived from them) for packaging materials production will be reviewed. Recent trends in production, characterization, and potential applications of biopolymer materials obtained from oil industry by-products will be displayed.
