“…Consideration of environmental issues is growing, bringing about the need for more sophisticated control of industrial emissions and waste and faster and more advanced on-board diagnosis (Lloyd Spetz et al, 1998). The impact of Clean Air Act Amendments on food processing waste operations identified vegetable oil production, among others, as a target industry requiring specific regulations (Walsh et al, 1993). Olive oil industry waste has attracted a tremendous amount of research, several hundreds of publications over the last 15 years.…”

The ongoing stricter policy rules on environmental issues, recent changes in consumer towards the environmental effects of food production, and even stricter regulations voted by the European Union towards reduction of the use of natural resources initiated a great amount of research towards improving the thermal waste treatment methodology. The olive oil industry continues to be one of the most heavily polluting ones among the food industries. Along this line, various thermal processes, such as pyrolysis, combustion and gasification, were investigated. Another crucial issue is the fate of treated waste. This review, apart from the presentation of various thermal treatment waste methodologies summarises the uses (either currently ongoing or having potential in the future): biodiesel, activated carbon and briquette production. Ten figures and four tables illustrated in this article provide comprehensive idea of the waste treatment methodologies, their effectiveness and uses of thermally waste treated olive materials.

“…Solid, agricultural and/or industrial wastes were of great concern, as well as the marketability of composted materials. The impact of CAA on food processing waste operations identified yeast manufacturing, cellulose food casing manufacturing and vegetable oil production as target industries for future specific regulations (Walsh et al, 1993).…”

“…An extensive literature search on disposal and utilization of solid vegetable, fruit and other organic waste was conducted. The study considered the implementation of anaerobic digestion, animal feeding, composting, edible fiber recovering, fermentation, incineration, pyrolysis and soil amendment as options for environmental management systems (EMS) (Walsh et al, 1993). The factors involved in the land application of strong citrus wastewaters were described (Jones and Horvath, 1993).…”
