Item Aprovechamiento de los residuos sólidos obtenidos de la producción de cerveza: Bagazo de cebada(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Marulanda Lopez, Sebastian Camilo; Alzate Calderón, Paola Carolina (Directora); Vera Lizcano, Omaira (Directora)The brewing industry generates a large amount of polluting waste, taking into account the high energy consumption, water consumption and atmospheric emissions; this leads to a great environmental impact. In the present work, the utilization of barley bagasse residue was used to reduce this impact. Initially, the barley (waste from the USC brewery) was collected, dried and finally the nutritional value of the dried bagasse was evaluated by means of a nutritional table analysis, to take advantage of the waste and determine whether it could be used in human food. To achieve the above, a drying process was initially carried out in a convection oven, evaluating different temperatures, and then milled to obtain a functional flour suitable for human consumption as a final product. Thanks to this work, it is concluded that it is possible to obtain a product with potential use in the field of human nutrition and leaves a precedent to help the circular economy of the waste generated in the USC brewery plant. This work is also a positive contribution to the reduction of the environmental impact that today is a global problem in many industries such as brewing.
