| Spent coffee grounds (SCGs) constitute the main solid residue of the coffee brewing process. SCGs are generated in significant amounts daily, worldwide. The effective management of this waste through biological processes is still an unresolved problem. In this study, the application of hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) as a pre-treatment method for improving the biodegradability of SCGs suspended in municipal wastewater was proposed. An orifice plate with a conical concentric hole having inlet/outlet diameter of 3/10 mm was applied as the cavitation inducer. Three inlet pressures were chosen: 3, 5 and 7 bar. The effects in time intervals of 0, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 45 min were evaluated. The application of HC led to enhanced biodegradability for each case. The results of multi-criteria decision indicated that the most efficient combination in terms of biodegradability and energy usage was obtained at the pressure of 5 bar and duration of 20 or 30 min, depending on the adopted weights. The improvements of DOC/TOC (dissolved organic carbon/total organic carbon) ratio were 57% and 71%, as compared to the untreated samples. The release of caffeine was found at pressures of 5 and 7 bar. However, at 5 bar, this effect was noticed for the longest times, 30 and 45 min, respectively. |
