Each component of pomegranate peel is examined in this research, with particular attention paid to the tannin content, chemical cosmetics, amino acids, carbohydrates, and polysaccharides. Utilizing atomic adsorption spectrometry, elemental analysis identified potassium and calcium as the key elements. The Kjeldahl method's amino acid composition showed that all of the required amino acids were present, indicating the protein derived from pomegranate waste's nutritional significance. Polysaccharides were found and described, including pectincontaining compounds and water-soluble polysaccharides. Applying spectrophotometry and high-performance liquid chromatography, the tannin content was found to be about 5.5%. Because of its antioxidant and antibacterial qualities, tannins have potential benefits in the culinary, pharmaceutical, and veterinary industries. The study sheds light on the nutritional value and bioactive components of pomegranate peel waste, underlining its multiple values. The information provided by this research is important in using pomegranate peel as a sustainable resource for several applications.
