Recovery of phenolic compounds from: Olive Mill Wastewater + Olive Mill solid wastes‐ Olive leaves

  • Olive oil is a major agro‐industrial

product for all Mediterranean countries.

  • Unfortunately large quantities of
  • live mill wastewater (OMW) or

semi‐solid wastes are produced.

  • Its treatment is difficult and

expensive due to its high organic load and phenolic content.

Scope

  • Large amounts of agricultural byproducts are produced every year, some of

them rich in phenolic compounds.

  • Phenols are antioxidants with high‐added value and positive effects to the

human health.

  • Their separation for the production of cosmetic products, food supplements

etc., is of great interest.

  • For this purpose, a combination of solid‐liquid extraction, membrane filtration

and resin adsorption/desorption following by evaporation is proposed, for the production of phenolic concentrates.

  • The final products of the proposed process contain a large percentage of the

byproducts’ phenolic content, in a small fraction of the initial volume.

  • This technique, after modification, can be applied to a variety of phenol‐rich

byproducts, allowing the operation of phenol separation plant adjustable to local agricultural activities.

Physicochemical Separation Techniques

  • Solid‐liquid

extraction is the separation of target compounds from a solid matrix through the use

  • f the appropriate solvent.

Solvents: WATER‐ ETHANOL (accepted in food Industry) Important parameters:

  • Physical characteristics of the solid
  • Solvent
  • Temperature
  • Agitation

Type of extraction Solutes Free solids Solvent/product Diffusional extraction Soluble coffee Coffee beans water Sugar Sugar beets Water, to produce sugar Washing extraction Vegetable oils Oilseeds Hexane, hydrocarbons Flavors/Odors Flowers Ethanol Sugar Sugarcane Water Leaching Phosphoric acid Phosphate rock Sulfuric acid Gold Gold ore Sodium cyanide Chemical reaction Gelatin Bones and skins Aqueous solution (pH 3 to 4) Lignins Wood chips NaOH solution, sulfide/sulfite

  • Membrane filtration is a separation

technique that has many applications in chemical process industries. The most important attributes of a membrane material are:

  • Good permeability
  • High selectivity
  • Chemical stability
  • Resistance to fouling

Olive Mill Wastewater Phenolic Compounds

  • Olive

mill wastewater (OMW) is a byproduct of the THREE‐phase extraction systems during the production of olive oil.

  • Olive mill semi‐solid (alperujo or pomace)

is a byproduct

  • f

the TWO‐phase extraction systems during the production

  • f olive oil.
  • Because of their partition coefficient,

most phenolic compounds of olive fruits end up in the wastewater produced and not in olive oil.

  • Oleuropein is the most common phenolic

compound of unripe olive fruits, but during maturity it is hydrolyzed to several simpler phenolic compounds like hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol.

Resin Adsorption/Desorption of OMW ROc

  • XAD4 and XAD16N yielded the best results. Even though the sample contained more carbohydrates than

phenols, resins adsorbed the dissolved phenols at a higher percentage.

  • When water was used as a desorption solvent, the small amount of carbohydrates that was adsorbed on the

resin was desorbed at a high percentage (60%). Ethanol, on the other hand, almost selectively removed the adsorbed phenols, while acetone removed both, carbohydrates and phenols.

  • Kinetic experiments allowed the optimization of flow rates and total volume of treated sample before the

resin surface was saturated.

  • After

carbohydrates removal via the proposed resin process, the distillation under vacuum (‐0.95 bar, 55 °C) of the resin ethanolic effluent resulted to a final phenol concentration of 378 g/L in gallic acid equivalents in the distillation residue.

Olive Leaf Phenolic Compounds

  • Olive leaves are a byproduct of
  • live fruit harvesting and initial

stages

  • f
  • live
  • il

extraction, during their separation from olive fruits.

  • Olive

leaf extracts have been proven to be rich in phenolic compounds, with the most prominent one being oleuropein, which, unlike in the olive fruit, it is not hydrolyzed to simpler phenols.

  • Oleuropein can be either bound to

a sugar molecule (Oleuropein glycoside) or be present in its free form (Oleuropein aglycon).
