Abstract The commercialization of high added-value compounds recovery from food wastes deals with several issues such as laboratory research, scale-up problems, protection of intellectual properties, and development of market-destined applications. These issues are described in this chapter wherein a collection of commercially available compounds recovered from food by-products is presented. Verification of market existing products matching with patented processes was conducted using patent applicant name in each case. However, this matching as well as production characteristics may not be correct in all cases, as most companies typically are secretive about their methods of production and respective data cannot be found in the literature. Despite the omnipresence of related studies and patented methodologies, the market existing products derived from food wastes are today rather limited. There are many reasons for this, such as scale-up and commercialization problems, protection of intellectual properties, approval of products’ health claims, etc. All these aspects are discussed in this chapter, wherein a proposal for the establishment of a new label (similar to organic foods) is introduced in order to reveal the potentiality of recovering valuable compounds from food wastes.
