Objective: Know the composition of minerals, essential trace elements and toxic trace elements of the organs of pea (Pisum sativum L.) and snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) plants for their possible use in industry 4.0. Design/methodology/approach: The concentration of mineral elements was determined through inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and the relationship of the amount of minerals with the flours of the different organs (root, stem, leaves and fruits of peas (P. sativum L.) and green beans (P. vulgaris). Results: The leaves represent an important fraction of the dry matter (30-40%) in the plants evaluated and are rich in minerals (calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium), essential trace elements (manganese, iron, selenium, zinc) , toxic trace elements (aluminum, strontium, boron, tin, ba-rium) and rare earth elements (cerium, yttrium, lanthanum and neodymium). Limitations on study/implications: The production condition of the crops is unknown, on which the content of mineral elements largely depends. Findings/conclusions: The organs of pea and snap bean plants represent an alternative as raw material in the production of foods and biomaterials enriched with minerals, essential trace elements, toxic trace elements and rare earth elements, since these accumulate and biocontain -focus on these organs and these plants can be used as indicators or as phytoextractors to be selected as inputs in industry 4.0 processes.
