Utilization of Tomato Agroindustrial Wastes (TAW) is of growing importance for its low cost and availability. This work aimed to add value to TAW from the point of pharmaceutical and food aspects, environmental safety, and energy security. Results indicated that TAW are not only source of lipids, proteins and inorganic minerals but are also source of lignocellulosic biomass for production of biofuel and single cell protein.
