Development of mathematic model for coffee decaffeination with leaching method

A simple mathematic model for caffeine kinetic description during the extraction process (leaching) of coffee bean was developed. A non­steady diffusion equation coupled with a macroscopic mass transfer equation for solvent was developed and them solved analytically. The kinetic of caffeine extract...
