Resumo: Anthropocene is the current geological age in which profound environmental changes on the planet occur under the influence of human activities. Among other aspects, some that corroborate this scenario are the food production system, including the impact of food losses and the generation of agro-industrial residues, as well as the consumption and disposal of plastics on a large scale, with particular attention to materials with a short life cycle, such as food packaging. As a result, there is a growing demand for packaging from renewable sources that are biodegradable and contribute to adding value and minimizing food loss, increasing its shelf life and functional value. An alternative that has been explored to improve the mechanical, thermal, and barrier properties of films is the use of nanoparticles which, due to the nanometric scale, provide the films with improved characteristics, such as higher tensile strength and Young's modulus and lower vapor permeability of water when compared to biodegradable films without nanoreinforcement. Nanoparticles can also be produced from agro-industrial residues, such as banana, cassava, corn peels, grape pomace, mango seeds and, cashew residues. Thus, this review aims to contribute to knowledge about the valorization of vegetables and their residues through the development of more sustainable films and food packaging, with a greater focus on studies produced by Brazilian institutions using national raw materials.

Entre otros aspectos, algunos que corroboran este escenario son el sistema de producción de alimentos, incluyendo el impacto de las pérdidas de alimentos y la generación de residuos agroindustriales, así como el consumo y disposición de plásticos a gran escala, con especial atención a los materiales con un ciclo de vida corto, como el envasado de alimentos. Como resultado, existe una demanda creciente de envases de origen renovable que sean biodegradables y que contribuyan a agregar valor y minimizar la pérdida de alimentos, aumentando su vida útil y valor funcional. Una alternativa que se ha explorado para mejorar las propiedades mecánicas, térmicas y de barrera de las películas es el uso de nanopartículas que, debido a la escala nanométrica, proporcionan a las películas características mejoradas, como mayor resistencia a la tracción y módulo de elasticidad y menor permeabilidad al vapor de agua en comparación con películas biodegradables sin nanorefuerzo. También se pueden producir nanopartículas a partir de residuos agroindustriales, como cáscaras de plátano, mandioca, maíz, orujo de uva, semillas de mango y residuos de anacardo. Así, esta revisión tiene como objetivo contribuir al área de conocimiento sobre la valorización de vegetales y sus residuos a través del desarrollo de películas y empaques de alimentos más sostenibles, con mayor enfoque en estudios producidos por instituciones brasileñas utilizando materias primas nacionales.Antropoceno é a era geológica atual, na qual profundas mudanças ambientais no planeta estão ocorrendo por influência das atividades humanas. Dentre outros aspectos, alguns que corroboram para este cenário são o sistema de produção de alimentos, incluindo o impacto das perdas de alimentos e a geração de resíduos agroindustriais, bem como o consumo e o descarte de plásticos em larga escala, com especial atenção aos materiais com um ciclo de vida curto, a exemplo das embalagens de alimentos.  Como consequência, percebe-se uma demanda crescente por embalagens de fontes renováveis e biodegradáveis e, que dessa forma, contribuam para agregar valor e minimizar a perda de alimentos, aumentando sua vida útil e seu valor funcional. Uma alternativa que vem sendo explorada para melhorar as propriedades mecânicas, térmicas e de barreira de filmes é o uso de nanopartículas que, devido a escala nanométrica, fornecem aos filmes características aprimoradas, como maior tensão na ruptura e módulo de elasticidade e menor permeabilidade ao vapor de água quando comparado com filmes biodegradáveis sem o nanoreforço. As nanopartículas podem também ser produzidas a partir de resíduos agroindustriais, como cascas de banana, mandioca, milho, bagaço de uva, semente de manga e resíduos de caju. Assim, esta revisão tem como objetivo discutir criticamente o atual estado da arte e as tendências futuras sobre valorização de vegetais e seus resíduos por meio do desenvolvimento de filmes e embalagens de alimentos mais sustentáveis, com maior enfoque em estudos produzidos por Universidades e outras instituições de pesquisa brasileiras usando matéria-prima nacional.Research, Society and Development2021-07-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1827810.33448/rsd-v10i9.18278Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 9; e49210918278Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 9; e49210918278Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 9; e492109182782525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/18278/16391Copyright (c) 2021 Julia Rabelo Vaz Matheus; Juliana Martins Satoriva; Andreza Salles Barone; Cristiano José de Andrade; Ana Elizabeth Cavalcante Faihttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMatheus, Julia Rabelo VazSatoriva, Juliana MartinsBarone, Andreza SallesAndrade, Cristiano José deFai, Ana Elizabeth Cavalcante2021-09-12T14:28:06Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/18278Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:38:26.465313Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
