An overview of applications in pineapple agroindustrial residues | Pregled uporabe agroindustrijskih ostankov ananasa

English. Industrial food production causes a high amount of waste. This waste must be taken to a suitable location where it can be further processing. During industrial processing of the pineapple, about 50 % of the mass of the fruit ends up being discarded becoming a residue. Researchers have studied these residues in order to add value to these by-products, to reduce disposal costs and guarantee environmental sustainability. This work investigates the development characteristics of research on agroindustrial residues of pineapple based on bibliometric methods to explore the structure of knowledge in this field over the years, according to the year of publication, periodicals, country, authors, area of knowledge, institutions, keywords, subject type, and citation analysis. In total 927 articles were found and after a careful analysis and selection of papers, 364 articles remained of which 82 % were published only in the last decade. Most studies focused on agricultural and biological sciences. About 1183 authors from 50 different countries contributed to this subject, in which India has the largest number of publications. The results obtained with this study, highlighting the different uses for pineapple residues, can provide valuable information for researchers interested in the field of agroindustrial wastes.

Slovenian. Industrijska proizvodnja hrane povzroča velike količine odpadkov. Odpadki morajo biti spravljeni na primernem mestu, kjer so lahko nadalje obdelani. Med industrijsko predelavo ananasa postane okrog 50 % mase odpadek. Ti ostanki so bili preučevani z vidika, da bi tem stranskim produktom dodali vrednost, zmanjšali stroške odvoza in zagotovili okoljsko vzdržnost. Prispevek preučuje razvojne značilnosti raziskav, ki se ukvarjajo s preučevanjem agroindustrijskih ostankov ananasa na osnovi bibliometričnih metod z namenom, da se prikaže znanje na tem področju v zadnjih letih glede na leto publikacije, vrsto revij, države, avtorjev, področij znanja, institucijo, ključne besede, tem raziskav in analizo citiranja. Celokupno je bilo najdenih 927 člankov. Po skrbni analizi in izboru objav je ostalo 364 člankov, od katerih je bilo 82 % objavljenih v zadnjem desetletju. Večina raziskav je bila usmerjena v agronomske in biološke vede. Okrog 1183 avtorjev iz 50 držav je prispevalo svoj delež, med njimi ima Indija največje število publikacij. Izsledki, dobljeni v terj raziskavi, osvetljujejo različne rabe ostankov ananasa, kar lahko prispeva pomembne informacije raziskovalcem, ki ji zanima področje agroindustrijskih odpadkov.
