The coconut has been expanding in recent years, due to growing demand in the sector of greencoconut water. Due to this event, there is a significant generation of waste from its production.Within this context, the objective was to analyze the strategies for the use of waste coconut husks,through the use of coconut fiber in order to reduce environmental impacts and check the type andlevel of economic and social benefits through technology presenting potential forms of recyclingto be employed through the coconut shells proposed uses of coconut fibers in order to mitigatethe impacts caused by shells, enabling the production of new products. The evaluation of thepotential of using waste coconut can be an alternative to reduce the space occupied by thesewastes in landfills and dumps. The methodology is a bibliographical study with qualitativeapproach of exploratory and descriptive data collection in key areas of agribusiness and wastegeneration from coconut. The results describe the various techniques described for the potentialuse of such wastes in different ways. However, even the green coconut husks being considered as remnants of agriculture with high potential for reuse, however, unfortunately, were found rareactions taken in Brazil to take advantage of this capability.
