Waste-free production of non-alcoholic wine as a sustainable technology

Abstract

The growing demand for non-alcoholic wines, along with issues related to waste disposal and environmental pollution amid military conflicts, natural disasters, and industrial emissions, necessitates the implementation of environmentally sustainable technologies in the winemaking industry. This article presents the concept of zero-waste production of non-alcoholic wine as an innovative approach that integrates the principles of circular economy and sustainable development. A comprehensive utilization of grape raw materials is proposed for the production of non-alcoholic wine, food concentrate, and ethanol, which enhances both the environmental and economic efficiency of the production process.
