Aerogels have garnered significant attention from the scientific community due to their extraordinary properties, including low density, high porosity, thermal conductivity, and large surface area. These properties make them interesting candidates for diverse applications such as insulation, drug delivery, catalysis, fillers, tissue engineering, biosensors. However, production of conventional aerogels is often constrained by environmental issues, cost raw materials, energy-intensive fabrication methods. In contrast, cellulose emerged promising sustainable materials with potential transform various low-cost waste products into high-value biomaterials. Food-processing byproducts provide numerous untapped opportunities generation aerogels. This review highlights recent advancements in development derived food processing byproducts, emphasizing role contributing circular bioeconomy. Specifically, this study focuses on processes which would otherwise go waste. The discusses extraction, gel formation, drying, functionalization aerogel along economic benefits utilizing these streams.
