Parker Dale, Hi<br>
<br>
With the flurry of confused e-mails over moving of the list, I think
your e-mail was not seen.<br>
<br>
What to you mean by coffee production wastes? Do you mean processing
the wastes from recovering the coffee beans, or the wastes from
making coffee beans into instant coffee?<br>
<br>
There has been some work on the digestion of the pulp from the
berries that surround the coffee beans. There are two ways that the
berry pulp can be removed. The wet process results in an acidic
slurry that can be difficult to digest. However, if it can be added
to a working continuous digester along with other feed stocks, it
does give very good gas production. <br>
<br>
The dry process (sun drying the berries and then using a rice huller
to remove the outer layers) results in a husk that can be made into
a slurry with water that seems to digest easily. I had a student
doing some tests a year or two back and she obtained much better
results than I expected from laboratory scale tests.<br>
<br>
I hope this helps. Others on the list will probably give you more
information.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
David F.<br>

Has anyone had success in digesting coffee production wastes?<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
