(Corresponding) Antwnopoulou P., Vyrides I., Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Isolation of microorganisms that can biodegrade organic compounds which are present in olive mill waste and more specifically microorganisms that can survive at high phenol concentrations was studied in the Environmental Engineering Laboratory for three months in the Department of Environmental...Read more
Contribution to the exploitation of oil by-products for use in the production of quality feed through the fermentation with the fungal strain LGAM P123 of basidiomyces Pleurotus ostreatus
(Corresponding) KARALIS I., ΑRAPOGLOY D., CHORIANOPOYLOS N., ILIOPOYLOS C.
Topic:
Solid waste management
In Greece, large quantities of by-products are produced annually from urban and industrial activities among them very high olive oil productionby-products. Thus, the interest of the scientific community has focused on the utilization of olive oil waste mainly as a feed using various microorganisms...Read more
DESIGN OPTIMIZATION OF A POLYMERIC NANOFILTRATION MEMBRANE FOR OLIVE MILL WASTEWATER VALORIZATION PLUS PURIFICATION
(Corresponding) Pulido J.
Topic:
Water and wastewater reuse
The core of the present work was to model and optimize an environmentally friendly nanofiltration (NF) treatment process for two-phase olive mill wastewater (OMW) valorization throughout concentration and recovery of its phenolic fraction and the obtention of a purified permeate stream. A factorial...Read more
MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION OF TWO-PHASE OLIVE-OIL WASHING WASTEWATER PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS RECOVERY AND TREATMENT BY NOVEL WEAK-BASE ION EXCHANGE RESINS
(Corresponding) Ochando J., Anotnio M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In the present work, the concentration and recovery of high-added value phenolic compounds from two-phase olive mill wastewater (OMW) and the simultaneous effluent treatment by a ‘green process’ based on resins adsorption/ion exchange was studied. Olive oil is produced by a technological procedure...Read more

Applying solar distillation for the sustainable management of olive mill wastewater
Mastoras P., Gatidou G., Vakalis S., Fountoulakis M., Haralampopoulos D., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Olive mill wastewater (OMWW) is a major by-product of olive oil production industry. Its chemical characteristics (high concentrations of COD and TSS, low pH value, existence of total phenols at the range of some ppm) does not allow its efficient treatment using conventional physiochemical or...Read more

Optimization of eco-friendly olive leaf (Olea europea L.) extraction methods for cosmeceutical applications
MARIJAN M., MITAR A., JAKUPOVIĆ L., IVANKOVIĆ S., PRLIĆ KARDUM J., (Corresponding) ZOVKO KONČIĆ M.
Topic:
Green chemistry
Demand for natural and organic cosmetics is growing rapidly every year. This increases interest in herbal extracts that contain biologically active ingredients able to prevent and delay skin aging. Olive (Olea europaea L., Oleaceae) is a small tree mostly utilized for its fruit, whose oil is widely...Read more
Circular Economy: Assessment of Circularity in Olive Oil Mills
(Corresponding) Kounani A., Pavloudi A., Aggelopoulos S., Kontrogeorgos A.
Topic:
Circular economy and industrial symbiosis
A central issue for academics and politicians regarding the circular economy in the last few years has been the evaluation and monitoring of the circularity level, so that conclusions can be drawn about how the implemented policies have been transitioning toward sustainability. Even though the...Read more

Management of Table Olive Wastewater (TOWW) in Turkey
(Corresponding) Dolgen D., Alpaslan M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Table olive is very important agricultural product for Turkey. It has a great market share in the country and also have high export potential. Management of table olive wastewater (TOWW) is an emerging and important issue, since large volumes of TOWW are discharged with high concentrations of...Read more
Treatment of three agro-industrial wastewaters by dried bio-absorbent orange peels and brewery spent grains
Kiouranakis G., Ioannou Z., Gkatzionis K., Papanikolaou S., (Corresponding) Sarris D.
Topic:
Circular economy and industrial symbiosis
This study aims to determine the efficiency of reducing the phenol content (hence BOD/COD) of three agro-industrial wastes: olive mill effluent- olive mill wastewaters- OMW, brewery sludge – BS, and white wine lees – WWL by orange peel (OP) and dried brewer' spent grains (BSG). Orange peels...Read more
Use of recycled construction and demolition waste as substrate in hybrid constructed wetlands for the treatment of Olive Mill Wastewater.
Kotsia D., Anastasiadi Z., (Corresponding) Fountoulakis M.
Topic:
Sustainable water resources management with nature-based solutions
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of hybrid constructed wetlands (CWs) for treating olive mill wastewater (OMW) using recycled aggregates from construction and demolition waste as substrate material. The experiment was conducted at the outdoor research facility of the...Read more
