Best Answer

A by-product is a supplementary or secondary product (arising as the result of a process) whose value is a small relative to that of the principal product.

In the timber industry, for example, by-products include sawdust, small offcuts and bark.

Byproducts are the 'extra' results from an action preformed. For example, if I wanted to cut a log into two pieces using a chain saw so that it fits into the furnace, sawdust would be my byproduct.

A byproduct is a secondary or additional product - produced in addition to the principal product.
