| description | Abstract Marang fruit is commonly found and available in various Southeast Asian regions, notably in countries such as Malaysia, the Philippines, and Indonesia. Marang fruit waste, despite its promising potential, remains underutilized in various applications. This review article explores the potential of Marang fruit waste as a valuable resource for various applications, with a focus on its utilization in the food industry, including seed flour, starch, snacks, and essential bioactive compounds. Beyond the food sector, the article also investigates its applications as biosorbents/adsorbents and an energy source. The study identifies promising research opportunities such as investigating its potential as a fuel source, as well as for the production of cellulose and nanocellulose which is now gaining relevant attention in various industries. However, the seasonal availability of Marang fruit and its limited distribution in specific Southeast Asian regions present challenges. This article aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the current status, highlight the areas that require further investigation, and future prospects of Marang fruit waste, highlighting its significance as a sustainable resource with multifaceted applications. |
