Abstract
A collaborative effort by research teams from France, the UK, Mexico and Brazil funded by the European Union INCO-DC programme (contract no IC18*CT970185) was initiated with the global objective of recycling the coffee pulp and coffee husk by biotechnological processes. Mexico alone produces more than 300,000 metric tons of grain coffee each year using ‘wet-processing’ technology resulting coffee pulp as the waste residue. The Brazilian State of Parana produced 220,000 metric tons of grain coffee in 1998 using ‘dry-processing’ technology resulting coffee husk as the waste residue. Considering the great volume of this agro-industrial waste, its high biodegradability and its potential as feed source for animals, a proposal was set-up to stabilize fresh pulp by the lactic acid silage technique, as it is being produced, during the crop season. However, Recalcitrant and Toxic Compounds (RTC) such as caffeine, tannins and polyphenols need to be removed. RTC’s actually represent a strong limitation on the use of coffee pulp/husk as a nutritive source for animal feeding purposes (Bressani, 1979). They also cause serious problems of environmental contamination (Violle et al., 1995; Zambrano-Franco et al., 1999). Ensiling of coffee pulp and its further utilization could avoid the rapid degradation of the material, which quickly becomes a very significant source of contamination of water in coffee growing areas (Zuluaga, 1989). The stabilized and detoxified coffee pulp/husk will be further utilized after the crop season as animal feed or for mushroom, fungal metabolites, or enzymes production (Perraud-Gaime, 1995; Ramirez-Martinez, 1999; Pandey and Soccol, 2000).
