This review principally focuses on the drivers and patterns of food waste production in hospitality industry along with reviewing the current researches and challenges for managing the food waste through main and coproduct recovery. In this regard, the study summarizes the scientific understandings of anaerobic digestion of food waste and the technical complications arise in operating the digesters for this purpose.
