Coffee Husk

Advances in industrial biotechnology offer potential opportunities for the economic use of agro-industrial wastes such as coffee grounds and coffee husks. Coffee grounds or husks are by-products obtained during the processing of coffee cherries by wet or dry processes respectively. Coffee Husk has numerous significant and useful applications. It serves as animal feed, as it contains a high level of fiber and essential nutrients such as protein and oil, improving the digestive process of livestock and enhancing their immune system. Coffee Husk contains organic matter that enhances soil structure, promotes better water retention, and provides nutrients for plants. It can be utilized as a fuel source; burning Coffee Husk generates heat, which can be harnessed for thermal or electrical energy production. Coffee Husk has the ability to absorb impurities and harmful substances in water, making it suitable for water purification processes, particularly in agricultural wastewater treatment projects.
