Agricultural and industrial residues are increasingly recognized as valuable resources for sustainable innovation, offering significant potential for biotechnological applications. By integrating waste valorization into production systems, this approach aims to mitigate environmental impacts and enhance economic value across various sectors. The findings underline the critical need for further research and policy support to scale these solutions, advancing global sustainability goals through innovative resource management. In this perspective, this article reviews the utilization of key by-products, including coffee residues, sugarcane bagasse, whey, cassava wastewater (manipueira), and brewery waste, highlighting their transformation into high-value products such as biofuels, bioplastics, enzymes, bioactive compounds, and organic fertilizers. The discussion presented encompasses the challenges and opportunities in leveraging these residues, emphasizing the role of advanced technologies, intellectual property, and circular economy principles.
农业和工业残余物日益被视为可持续创新的宝贵资源，在生物技术应用方面具有巨大潜力。通过将废物增值纳入生产系统，这种方法旨在减轻环境影响并提高各部门的经济价值。研究结果强调，迫切需要进一步研究和政策支持，以扩大这些解决方案的规模，通过创新的资源管理推进全球可持续发展目标。从这个角度来看，本文回顾了关键副产品的利用情况，包括咖啡渣、甘蔗渣、乳清、木薯废水（maniupueira）和啤酒厂废物，强调了它们转化为生物燃料、生物塑料、酶、生物活性化合物和有机肥料等高价值产品的过程。所讨论的内容涵盖了利用这些残余物所面临的挑战和机遇，强调了先进技术、知识产权和循环经济原则的作用。
