The COPTER System treats and purifies pulping wastewater using cutting-edge fine particle shortwave dissociation technology
Scalene Coffee Research Organization a member of Organisation De Scalene Foundation, a global leader in sustainable technology innovations, announces the launch of COPTERS (Coffee Pulping Water Recovery System) Technology, a groundbreaking water recovery system developed to reduce water wastage in the coffee pulping process drastically by recovering almost 90 per cent of pulped water. This ground-breaking Pulp Effluent Recovery System offers an integrated solution to the challenges of water scarcity and environmental impact in coffee production, representing a breakthrough in sustainable water management in coffee wet processing.
The expansion of the coffee industry has raised awareness of the environmental impact of coffee processing, especially the problems with waste management and excessive water use. For every kilogramme of coffee beans, traditional coffee pulping uses about 20,000 litres of water to get high-quality parchment. The Coffee pulping water recovery system redefines industry sustainability standards by lowering this requirement to an unprecedented 500 millilitres per kg of clean coffee.
The COPTER System treats and purifies pulping wastewater using cutting-edge fine particle shortwave dissociation technology, eliminating impurities at the elemental level and enabling water reuse. By treating enormous quantities of effluent, the system not only helps with regulatory compliance but also makes it feasible to reuse clean water, significantly lowering the environmental impact of coffee production. COPTERS offers coffee growers an economical and environmentally responsible solution that also increases profit margins by drastically reducing water usage, providing high-grade bio-nutrients for the coffee plants and also giving an option for carbon mitigation including carbon credits.
