The study was conducted with the main objective of quantification of bioactive components and analysis of proximate composition of selected food processing industry by-products such as mango peel, mango seed kernel and groundnut seed coat. The food processing industry produces huge amount of wastes or by-products annually around the world in processing of different animal and plant sources. The by-products generated during food processing are excellent source of nutraceuticals and many bioactive food components that have significant health promoting effect. The food processing by-products are used as a chief source for the production of functional food ingredients. The economically valuable components such as proteins, fats, dietary fibers, flavour compounds, phytochemicals and bioactive compounds a represent in food processing by-products. The waste management is one of the major challenging jobs around the world in food industries. The huge volume of the low cost by-product generated during food processing provides inexpensive source of many potentially valuable health promoting components.
