India is one of the world's leading fruit producing countries. After consumption, fruits leave behind waste that pollutes the environment as solid waste. In this article, we studied the surface, physical, and chemical properties of commonly available bulk fruit wastes (FW) such as bananas, oranges, citrus fruits, and lemons, and proposed their valuation in detail. Each fruit waste was subjected to a thorough final analysis of porosity, particle density, Fourier transform infrared characterized. Derivation of spectroscopy and TGA/thermogravimetry. The order of surface acidity is OW > LW > CW > BW. From the TG curve, it is clear that the FW is stable below 150 °C. The results will aid in the rational design of FW when used as bioactive compounds, phenolic antioxidants, organic acids, enzymes, biofertilizers, substrates for energy production, and adsorbents.
