Article Abstract

Spent coffee grounds (SCGs) are a major global waste, yet rich in valuable bioactive compounds. Unlocking their potential requires advanced analytical techniques due to the complexity of their molecular composition. This study presents an innovative RPLC × SFC-HRMS method-an online two-dimensional liquid chromatography approach-for simultaneous analysis of sterol and diterpene derivatives in SCGs. Using a custom-built interface, both free and esterified lipid fractions were analyzed directly from intact, non-saponified and non-derivatized extracts. The method effectively resolved isomeric compounds and sterol oxidation products, highlighting its power for comprehensive lipid profiling and paving the way for SCG valorization in health-focused applications.

Global coffee consumption generates significant environmental concerns, particularly from spent coffee grounds (SCG). As a rich source of carbohydrates, SCG holds promise for isolating polysaccharides suitable for food applications. This study investigated how different extraction methods, including acid (A), hot water (W), and alkaline (AL) extractions, affect the structural characteristics and functional properties of SCG-derived polysaccharides (CPs).

In this study, a process optimization strategy was established to enhance the efficiency of manno-oligosaccharides (MOS) production from spent coffee grounds (SCG), using a sequential approach of aqueous ammonia pretreatment and surfactant-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis. Aqueous ammonia pretreatment (25 % NH₃·H₂O, 70 °C, 48 h) significantly disrupted the lignocellulosic matrix, achieving 67.1 % lignin removal and resulting in more than a threefold increase in MOS yield.

Here, following the waste-to-value principle, cellulose extracted from spent coffee grounds was modified to fabricate cargo-loaded hydrogel scaffolds via 3D printing, thereby enhancing resource utilization efficiency. Initially, FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the removal of non-cellulosic fractions, yielding cellulose over 10 %, which was subsequently converted into carboxymethyl cellulose through the etherification process. Furthermore, the concrete inks prepared from two hydrogel microparticles that were made from recovered carboxymethyl cellulose and their photo-crosslinked hydrogels exhibited distinct property characteristics, establishing a foundation for selecting an appropriate formulation for hydrogel scaffold printing.

This study aimed to develop novel oleogels using whey protein (WP) and bacterial cellulose nanowhiskers (BCNW) to expand the potential applications of spent coffee grounds oil (SCGO). An emulsion-templated approach was employed to structure SCGO with varying WP:SCGO ratios, while the incorporation of BCNW was evaluated as a potential stabilizing and reinforcing agent. All oleogels behaved as "true" gels (tan δ < 0.
