 The worldwide fruit processing industry generates large quantities of fruit waste, which contain rich sources of phenolic compounds. These compounds can be recovered through extraction methods such as ultrasound and microwave-assisted extraction, UME, which can be optimized using various parameters such as extraction time, ultrasonic power, and solvent-slash-dry solid ratio. Additionally, these processes can be enhanced by using environmentally friendly solvents such as deputactic solvents, DS, and natural deputactic solvents, NADES. DS was found to be the most effective solvent for extracting phenols from apricot kernels, while NADES was the most effective solvent for extracting phenols from peach pulp. Furthermore, the use of DS in fruit byproduct extraction is effective and seems to be a promising alternative. Therefore, the untapped potential of fruit waste can be utilized through simple techniques and innovative solvents.
