The latest developments in processing and encapsulation techniques used for the preservation of the valuable products showed great interest to many food technologists. Pomegranate is known as one of the ancient plants that contain numerous biologically active compounds. To preserve the valuable compounds of pomegranate from heat, oxygen, moisture, and light, encapsulation techniques are widely employed. Encapsulation is a process of building a functional barrier between the core and wall material to avoid chemical and physical reactions and maintains the biological and functional properties. The choice of an appropriate encapsulation technique and wall material depends upon the end use of the product and processing conditions. Little work has been done regarding the encapsulation of bioactive components present in pomegranate using different wall materials and drying methods. This review article briefly covers the uses of pomegranate, extraction of valuable compounds, and techniques used for the encapsulation of different components of pomegranate.
