Abstract
Pectin was extracted from coffee pulp using 0.1 M H2SO4. The Box Behnken Design based Response surface methodology was applied to optimize pectin yield. The impact of extraction time (45-75 min), temperature (80-100 °C), solid to liquid ratio (SLR) (1:20, 1:27.5, and 1:35), and pH (1.5, 2, and 2.5) on pectin yield were studied. Under optimal extraction conditions (84 °C, 75 min, SLR of 1:20 and pH: 1.5), physical, chemical, structural and antioxidant properties of pectin were examined. The results of the physicochemical analysis are: acetyl value: 1.10 ± 0.05 %, equivalent weight: 1429 ± 54 g/mol, anhydrouronic acid: 57.1 ± 0.9 %, degree of esterification: 78.5 ± 1.8 %, moisture content: 8.5 ± 1.5 % and ash content: 4.3 ± 0.9 %. FTIR analysis indicated the (-OH) peak of pectin was lower and shifted left compared to treated and untreated coffee pulp powder. SEM analysis shows a smoother surface, whereas XRD shows a less amorphous structure of pectin. The total phenolic and flavonoid content of coffee pulp pectin was found to be 26.7 μg Gallic Acid Equivalent/mg and 0.8957 μg Quercetin Equivalent/mg, respectively. Antioxidant analysis showed significant antioxidant properties (IC50 = 642.31 ± 30.43 μg/mL). The predicted and actual pectin yields at the optimal extraction condition were 14.39 and 13.7 %, respectively, with R2 = 0.95 that indicate the model can represent the experiment. Therefore, achieving a maximum pectin yield with improved antioxidant and other physicochemical qualities ensures that coffee pulp can potentially serve as a viable commercial source of pectin.

Abstract
The main waste in the coffee industry is the coffee pulp (CP), an interesting source of fiber and phenolic compounds. An alternative for its harnessing can be its transformation into a flour for human consumption, generating added value for a circular economy. The aim of this study was to obtain flour from CP (CPF) using extrusion and the evaluation of its incorporation into a bakery product. Extrusion treatments to get a flour were explored by a factorial design 23, considering the temperature, moisture, and extruder screw revolutions (rpm). Treatments were evaluated for their effects on the proximal composition, phytic acid, caffeine, and phenolic compounds contents of the flours, and baking characteristics such as water absorption (WAI) and water solubility index (WSI). Once the best extrusion treatment was selected, bread formulations were developed, two wheat-based and two gluten-free, which were evaluated using "Flash Profiling". Extrusion treatment 110 °C, 35% moisture, and 17.5 rpm, was selected as the best one to get a flour with good functional properties (WAI:2.94 ± 0.13, WSI:21.02 ± 3.27) and a content of phenolic compounds: 55.14 mg/g and caffeine:14.23 mg/g. Sensorially, good acceptance, up to 15% substitution by flour, was achieved. Extruded CPF could be a food ingredient, at least in bakery products, contributing in the practice of a circular economy.

Abstract
The coffee pulp, a by-product of the coffee industry, contains a high concentration of phenolic compounds and caffeine. Simulated gastrointestinal digestion may influence these active compounds' bioaccessibility, bioavailability, and bioactivity. Understanding the impact of the digestive metabolism on the coffee pulp's phenolic composition and its effect on cellular oxidative stress biomarkers is essential. In this study, we evaluated the influence of in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of the coffee pulp flour (CPF) and extract (CPE) on their phenolic profile, radical scavenging capacity, cellular antioxidant activity, and cytoprotective properties in intestinal epithelial (IEC-6) and hepatic (HepG2) cells. The CPF and the CPE contained a high amount of caffeine and phenolic compounds, predominantly phenolic acids (3',4'-dihydroxycinnamoylquinic and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acids) and flavonoids (3,3',4',5,7-pentahydroxyflavone derivatives). Simulated digestion resulted in increased antioxidant capacity, and both the CPF and the CPE demonstrated free radical scavenging abilities even after in vitro digestion. The CPF and the CPE did not induce cytotoxicity in intestinal and hepatic cells, and both matrices exhibited the ability to scavenge intracellular reactive oxygen species. The coffee pulp treatments prevented the decrease of glutathione, thiol groups, and superoxide dismutase and catalase enzymatic activities evoked by tert-butyl hydroperoxide elicitation in IEC-6 and HepG2 cells. Our findings suggest that the coffee pulp could be used as a potent food ingredient for preventing cellular oxidative stress due to its high content of antioxidant compounds.

Abstract
In this study, coffee pulp was examined as a starting material to make alcoholic beverages (coffee pulp wine) and yeast fermentation ability. We have evaluated five yeasts, three of which were previously isolated from the coffee cherry, and the other two were commercial yeasts. The pH, °Brix, viable yeast cells, and color parameters of coffee pulp wines were measured. The antioxidant activity of coffee pulp wine were measured using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and ferric reducing antioxidant power assays. Relatively, the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl inhibition percentage of Saccharomycopsis fibuligera (strain KNU18Y4) fermented coffee pulp wine was higher than that of other yeasts. Coffee pulp wine fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain Fermivin) had higher ferric reducing antioxidant power values. Coffee pulp wine fermented with S. fibuligera (strain KNU18Y4) produced higher total phenolic content and total flavonoid content. Coffee pulp wine fermented with S. cerevisiae (strain KNU18Y12) had lower total tannin content compared to other treatments. The citric and malic acid contents were higher in coffee pulp wine fermented with S. cerevisiae (strain Fermivin). On the other hand, high lactic and acetic acid produced, with coffee pulp wine fermented with S. fibuligera (strain KNU18Y4). Ethyl alcohol was the most abundant volatile compound found in all treatments.

Abstract
Coffee pulp is one of the major underutilized byproduct of coffee processing in farm level. Disposal of this agro-industrial waste has become one of the most challenging tasks for coffee planters. However, most of the efforts are towards the management of coffee pulp as an effluent, and not-on re-use. The problem is compounded due to the large volumes produced in diluted forms, which makes it expensive to reuse. The preliminary proximate analysis of coffee pulp indicated it to be rich in pectin and polyphenols. The efficacy of various chemicals like ethanol, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, ammonium oxalate and metal salts for effective precipitation of pectin from coffee pulp was evaluated. HPLC characterization of the extracted and concentrated polyphenols fractions was analyzed. The maximum extraction of pectin was achieved by using metal salts and ethanol with 6.0% and 6.7% on wet weight basis respectively. The equivalent weight of extracted pectin (1180.5 mg/g) was found to be higher than that of commercial pectin (724.8 mg/g). The methoxyl content of the commercial pectin and crude pectin were 9.3 and 5.6% respectively. Gallic, vanillin, catechin, ethyl catechol, coumaric, Caffeic, and ferulic acid were the major polyphenols as quantified by the HPLC. The polyphenol fraction showed a good antioxidant activity with phosphomolybdate, FRAP, DPPH, and ABTS radicals respectively. The sustainable utilization of coffee pulp as a source of pectin and polyphenols with good antioxidant activities could help to solve the problem of waste generated in coffee processing in farm level.

Abstract
Coffee pulp which is a by-product of coffee production contains considerable amounts of phenolic compounds that can be valorised to produce cascara as an antioxidant beverage. The fermentation and drying conditions of the coffee pulp have a great influence on the bioactive compounds in the cascara. This study aimed to investigate the effect of natural fermentation with simultaneous aeration on the phenolic content and antioxidant activity of cascara. A systematic study was carried out using a response surface methodology with a face-centered central composite design to determine the effect of fermentation time (0-8 h) and temperature (27-37 °C) on the number of bacteria in the coffee pulp after natural fermentation with simultaneous aeration (an air flowrate of 4 m/s) as well as phenolic content and antioxidant activity of cascara. The experimental dataset was modelled with an empirical model using multi-variable non-linear regression. A good agreement between model and experimental data was obtained. At the optimum conditions (4.2 h, 31.8 °C), the phenolic content was 6.72% whereas the antioxidant activity was 27.6%. Indigenous lactic acid bacteria were also isolated from the coffee pulp and determined as Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides. The isolated bacteria can be used as a starter for controlled fermentation of coffee pulp as it increased the antioxidant activity up to 15% higher than the antioxidant activity of cascara obtained at the optimum conditions for natural fermentation with simultaneous aeration and 30% higher from the fresh coffee pulp.

Abstract
This study investigated the performance of aerobic windrow systems by using coffee by-products and green waste to reduce gaseous emissions. Thereafter, a comparison with the current treatment and gaseous emissions at a Coffee Mill in Costa Rica was made. Two different studies where performed in Germany (pile I and II) and one study in a Coffee Mill in Costa Rica (pile III). Temperature, water content, and pH were the key parameters controlled over 35 days in all the systems. Moreover, CH4 emission rates were quantified by a FTIR and by a portable gas detector device where the emissions reached values 100 times higher when coffee by-products as a unique material for the composting process was used. Results show that highest emission rates during the composting process for pile I was 0.007 g(m2)-1 h-1, for pile II 0.006 g(m2)-1 h-1, and for pile III 3.1 g(m2)-1 h-1. It was found that CH4 emissions could be avoided if the mixture and the formation of the windrow piles were performed following the key parameter for composting, and the usage of additional material is used. With this, the reduction of CH4 emissions at the Mill in Costa Rica could be achieved in the future.

Abstract
Wet coffee pulp (WCP), produced as waste from coffee production, is a rich source of bioactive compounds, especially caffeine and chlorogenic acid. However, it contains high moisture content, thus it is challenging for further utilization due to degradation and microbial deterioration. Dehydration is, therefore, necessary to minimize degradation and ease storage and transportation. As a waste, the common drying methods should be prioritized to be feasible for industrial application. This study aimed to determine the impact of different drying conditions of the three common drying methods including low temperature and pressure, vacuum and hot air drying on physical, phytochemical and antioxidant properties of WCP to identify the most suitable drying conditions. Browning index, moisture content, total phenolic content (TPC), flavonoids (TFC), proanthocyanidins, and chlorogenic acid as well as the antioxidant properties of the dried coffee pulp were significantly influenced by different tested conditions. Vacuum drying was found to be more suitable for drying the wet coffee pulp as compared to low temperature and pressure and hot air drying methods. Vacuum drying at 110 °C retained the highest TPC (14.4 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g dry weight (DW)), proanthocyanidins (6.8 mg catechin equivalents (CE)/g DW), TFC (13.2 CE/g DW), caffeine (2.9 mg/g DW) and antioxidant capacity. Chlorogenic acid (3.4 mg/g DW) was 13% lower, but energy consumption was 37% less than vacuum drying at 90 °C. Therefore, vacuum drying (3.75 mmHg) at 110 °C for 4h 05 min was suggested for dehydration of the wet coffee pulp for subsequent recovery and processing.

The industrial processing of coffee cherries generates a considerable volume of by-products such as wastewater, coffee pulp, mucilage, and husk. These by-products have sugars and nutrients that can be converted into value-added products via microbial action. In this study, for the first time, we evaluated the potential of coffee pulp and coffee wastewater as substrate for alcoholic fermentation produce a distilled beverage. The must composed by dry or wet coffee pulp and coffee wastewater added of commercial sucrose or sugarcane molasses was fermented by S. cerevisiae. After a screening step, a larger fermentation was carried out with the wet pulp added of sucrose due to its higher alcoholic fermentation efficiency. The distilled beverage contained 38% (v/v) ethanol and 0.2 g/L of acetic acid. The contaminants furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural and ethyl carbamate were below detection level. Among the 48 volatile compounds detected, the majority (21) were ethyl esters usually associated with floral and sweet aromas. Ethyl decanoate (996.88 µg/L) and ethyl dodecanoate (1088.09 µg/L) were the most abundant esters. Coffee spirit presented taste acceptance of 80% and sugarcane spirit, 70%. The tasters indicated an aroma acceptance of 86% for the coffee spirit and 78% for the sugarcane spirit. The results of this work demonstrate the potential for using coffee by-products to produce a good quality distilled beverage. Considering our results, especially sensorial analysis, we can infer that the produced coffee beverage represents a new alternative for adding value to the coffee production chain.

Abstract
In this study, the anaerobic performance and stability of coffee husk and pulp with and without trace element (TE) supplement was investigated, using 20 L mesophilic continuous stirred tank reactors for 140 days of experiment (DOE). The TE was cocktail of trace metals composed of Fe, Ni, Zn, Co, Mn, Mo, Se W and B. The organic loading rate (OLR) was increased stepwise from 2.5 (HRT = 40 d) to 6.0 kg VS m-3 d- 1(HRT = 16.7 d). The highest methane productivity from pulp with and without TE was 1.272 and 0.965 m3 m-3 d-1 at an OLR of 6.0 and 5.0 kg VS m-3 d-1; while the husks performed 0.895 and 0.795 m3 m-3 d-1 respectively, both at an OLR of 6.0 kg VS m-3 d-1. The specific methane yield (SMY) of pulp (at OLR = 5 kg VS m-3 d-1) with and without TEs was 217.9 ± 4.7 and 193.1 ± 8.2 L kg-1 VS; while husk yielded 149.2 ± 6.0 and 132.5 ± 4.9 L kg-1 VS, respectively. The effect of TEs on SMY was statistically significant (p < 001) at higher OLRs (5.0 - 6.0 kg VS m-3 d-1). The TEs improved the anaerobic stability through an optimum alkalinity ratio (VFA/TIC < 0.3) and suppressed the accumulation of volatile fatty acids. Mono digestion of husks and pulp are prone to lack Mo, Zn, Ni and Fe in long-term anaerobic fermentation. Further studies on co-digestion of husk/pulp with animal manure and dry fermentation helps to efficiently use this biomass resource.

Abstract
Biogas production from cow dung with co-substrate agricultural waste is one of the most demanding technologies for generating energy in a sustainable approach considering eco-friendly. In the present study, coffee pulp (CP) was pre-treated with 1% NaOH and combined with various proportions of cow dung (CD) to explore its biogas producing potentiality. The optimization of the process was studied using Response surface methodology. Statistics based on 3-D plots were generated to evaluate the changes in the response surface and to understand the relationship between the biogas yield and other parameters. The highest methane production (144 mL/kg) was achieved after 90 h of incubation with 1:3 of CP and CD at 40 °C. Gas chromatography analyzes the chemical compositions of the generated biogas and its post combustion emissions. The chemical composition of the substrates before digestion and after fermentation (biogas spent sludge) were measured in terms of fiber content and the values were noted as, total solids (0.53%), ash content (9.2%), volatile fatty acid (100 mg/L), organic carbon (46%) and a total carbohydrate (179 mg/g). The results of the optimization of biogas production presented in this work found to have significance with the process parameters. The outcome of the study has supported the fact of conventional combustion technology that has to be upgraded to prevent these hazardous emissions into the atmosphere.

Abstract
In this study, the lignocellulosic residue coffee pulp was used as carbon source in fermentative l(+)-lactic acid production using Bacillus coagulans. After thermo-chemical treatment at 121°C for 30min in presence of 0.18molL(-1) H2SO4 and following an enzymatic digestion using Accellerase 1500 carbon-rich hydrolysates were obtained. Two different coffee pulp materials with comparable biomass composition were used, but sugar concentrations in hydrolysates showed variations. The primary sugars were (gL(-1)) glucose (20-30), xylose (15-25), sucrose (5-11) and arabinose (0.7-10). Fermentations were carried out at laboratory (2L) and pilot (50L) scales in presence of 10gL(-1) yeast extract. At pilot scale carbon utilization and lactic acid yield per gram of sugar consumed were 94.65% and 0.78gg(-1), respectively. The productivity was 4.02gL(-1)h(-1). Downstream processing resulted in a pure formulation containing 937gL(-1)l(+)-lactic acid with an optical purity of 99.7%.

Abstract
Ustilago maydis, an edible mushroom growing on maize (Zea mays), is consumed as the food delicacy huitlacoche in Mexico. A chlorogenic acid esterase from this basidiomycete was expressed in good yields cultivating the heterologous host Pichia pastoris on the 5L bioreactor scale (reUmChlE; 45.9UL(-1)). In contrast to previously described chlorogenic acid esterases, the reUmChlE was also active towards feruloylated saccharides. The enzyme preferred substrates with the ferulic acid esterified to the O-5 position of arabinose residues, typical of graminaceous monocots, over the O-2 position of arabinose or the O-6 position of galactose residues. Determination of kcat/Km showed that the reUmChlE hydrolyzed chlorogenic acid 18-fold more efficiently than methyl ferulate, p-coumarate or caffeate. Phenolic acids were released by reUmChlE from natural substrates, such as destarched wheat bran, sugar beet pectin and coffee pulp. Treatment of wheat dough using reUmChlE resulted in a noticeable softening indicating a potential application of the enzyme in bakery and confectionery.

Abstract
The semi-dry processing of coffee generates significant amounts of coffee pulp and wastewater. This study evaluated the production of bioethanol and volatile compounds of eight yeast strains cultivated in a mixture of these residues. Hanseniaspora uvarum UFLA CAF76 showed the best fermentation performance; hence it was selected to evaluate different culture medium compositions and inoculum size. The best results were obtained with 12% w/v of coffee pulp, 1 g/L of yeast extract and 0.3 g/L of inoculum. Using these conditions, fermentation in 1 L of medium was carried out, achieving higher ethanol yield, productivity and efficiency with values of 0.48 g/g, 0.55 g/L h and 94.11% respectively. Twenty-one volatile compounds corresponding to higher alcohols, acetates, terpenes, aldehydes and volatile acids were identified by GC-FID. Such results indicate that coffee residues show an excellent potential as substrates for production of value-added compounds. H. uvarum demonstrated high fermentative capacity using these residues.
