Wie hou van vanillageur roomys?
Tokyo (AFP) Mar 06, 2006 - Japanese researchers have succeeded in making the
sweet smell of vanilla come out of the last thing people could imagine --
cow dung. In a world-first recycling project, a one-hour heating and
pressuring process allows cow feces to produce vanillin, the main component
of the vanilla-bean extract, according to researcher Mayu Yamamoto.

Japanese researchers have succeeded in making the sweet smell of vanilla
come out of the last thing people could imagine -- cow dung. In a
world-first recycling project, a one-hour heating and pressuring process
allows cow faeces to produce vanillin, the main component of the
vanilla-bean extract, according to researcher Mayu Yamamoto.
The vanillin extracted from the faeces could be used in products such as
shampoo and aromatic candles, but not in food, said Yamamoto, who works for
the Research Institute of the state-run International Medical Centre of
Japan.
Compared with usual vanilla, "this component is exactly the same, but it
would be difficult for people to accept it in food, given the recent rules
of disclosing the origins of ingredients," she said.
The production-cost using dung is less than a half of making vanillin out of
vanilla beans, she added.
The faeces of grass-eating animals is abundant with lignin, the chemical
compound that exists in plants and trees and is used to produce vanilla
aroma, Yamamoto said.
"Lignin is difficult to decompose," she said. "Farmers are troubled by how
to dispose properly of animal excrement. We tried to solve this from a
recycling viewpoint," she said.
After taking the vanillin, the processed faeces could be returned to the
soil, she said.
The research has been done in co-operation with major Japanese chemicals
firm Sekisui Chemical.
The research team aims to develop a machine to handle several tons of faeces
a day and put it in practical use in two-to-three years. -- Sapa-AFP
