Abstract
In terms of sustainability, there is a pressing need to evaluate agricultural and forestry leafy biomass that has no current economic value or may pose a threat to the environment. In this aspect, leafy biomass, which represents around 5% of the total tree, can be used for purposes that would be more profitable and ecofriendly. To this end, biorefinery of leafy biomass in the way of extracting valuable health compounds such as phenolics would ensure a valuable societal health ingredient besides alleviating waste disposal problem. However, during the biorefinery process, the primary challenges start with ensuring the feedstock to produce phenol rich leaves extract followed by their isolation and commercialization of this leaves extract. This current review aims to detail the types of biomasses, biorefinery approach of leafy biomass towards the phenolic extraction, leaves commercialization followed by the marketing strategy of the application of phenol rich leaves extract. The outcome of this overview will serve researchers and relevant industries in understanding the process for feedstock collection and the suitable sectors to apply leafy biomass derived healthy compounds.
