Revalorization of wet olive pomace through polyphenol extraction and steam gasification (PHENOLIVE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

The residue generated by the olive oil process is known as wet olive pomace (WOP), which have high water content (up to 65%), and may contain between 2-8 g. polyphenols/Kg pomace, so more than 80% of the total polyphenol content in olives is lost in the waste material. This olive pomace is normally used for further extraction of pomace oil. For that application, it is dried prior to using organic ...
