Development of natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) based on choline chloride as a green solvent to extract phenolic compound from coffee husk waste

Abstract

Natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) has been successfully used as a green alternative for the extraction of polyphenolic compounds (phenolic) from coffee husk waste. The NADES was produced by combining b the choline chloride compound with glycerol, glucose, citric acid, and proline. Furthermore, it was characterized using FTIR with the appearance of a widening hydroxyl peak at a wave number of 3277–3364 cm−1, indicating the presence of hydrogen bond interactions. The results showed that the best composition of NADES solvent was choline chloride and proline ratio of 1:1, providing an extraction yield of 5.88 mg GAE g−1 with a polyphenol concentration in NADES of 294.02 mg/L. Optimum extraction conditions were carried out with the addition of 50 % water, extraction time of 30 min, and the ratio of sample weight to solvent volume (1:10), obtaining a yield of 6.16 mg GAE g−1 and the concentration of polyphenols in NADES of 307.81 mg/L. The effect of temperature on the extraction process can increase the extract yield under conditions at 80 °C with a yield of 10.07 mg GAE g−1 and a polyphenol concentration of 671.4 mg/L. The chlorogenic acid group of polyphenolic compounds was identified using HPLC at a retention time of 3.454 min with a concentration of 63 mg/L. Based on the results, NADES can be use as a green solvent for extracting active compounds from coffee husk waste. These extract can safely be applied to various medicinal and food products.
