- Abstract
The article discusses the biokinectic parameter investigation and biological treatment of coffee berry effluents. The coffee berry washing process is one of the most important sources of pollution in rural area, where pulp, husks and wastewater are produced. As a result, wastewater from this operation can have very high BOD sometimes exceeding 24,000 mg per liter. Wet and dry process are currently used in which the coffee berry is subjected to mechanical and biological operation in order to separate the been or seed from the exocarp, mesocarp, and endocarp.
