Current successes recorded in the use of plant leaves as corrosion inhibitors have been globally admitted as one of the best options. Little attention is paid to the future implication or risks concerning food insecurity, economic challenges and competition in various sectors that employ plants as their raw materials. This study reviewed the potential of plant wastes (such as peels, rinds and other components) as alternative sources of sustainable corrosion inhibitors. The review reveals that through the considerations of experimental and quantum chemical data as well as their chemical constituents, most plant wastes have excellent corrosion inhibition capacity. Those tested and confirmed as good corrosion inhibitors have also been reviewed. Computational chemistry has been implemented to demonstrate how some challenges confronting the understanding of their inhibition mechanism can be resolved.
