Abstract

The cultivation of citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons, tangerines, lime and others is an important agricultural activity in Mexico, and orange is the main crop of all processed citrus fruits (80 %). The byproduct of the juice industry and of small shops selling juice is the waste or pulp of citrus fruits, which is composed of the husk, bagasse, seeds, juice, oils and fruit waste. This by-product can be used as: source of dietary fiber, use in animal feed (fresh, fermented, dehydrated, molasses, cake), bed, dextran and fructose production, and compost; however, much goes to the landfill. When dehydrating the pulp of citrus sun has a yield of 23.9 %.
