“…syringic acid, are closely related in structure to lignin. Though there has been considerable study of such pollutants (Ena et al 2009;Chouchene et al 2010Chouchene et al , 2012Coz et al 2011;Jeguirim et al 2012;Justino et al 2012), it is still not clear whether the toxic compounds are mainly present as emulsions or in solution in typical cases. …”

“…Due to the generally high water content of cellulose-based sorbents after they have been used to collect oil, treatment options involving conventional drying and incineration are generally not considered to be cost-effective (Choi 1996;Chouchene et al 2012;Jeguirim et al 2012). In other words, more energy may be expended in the incineration of such materials than can be gained from the combustion.…”

“…Thermal treatment seems to be a promising technique due to the energy content of the OMWW [13]. Recently, a combined strategy for the treatment of OMWW has been developed [5,14]. This strategy includes the impregnation of the OMWW on low cost biomass such as sawdust or OMSW and the production of green pellets.…”

Abstract:Olive Mill Wastewater (OMWW) treatment is considered to be one of the main challenges that Mediterranean countries face. Although several procedures and technologies are mentioned in the literature, these techniques have several disadvantages or have been limited to laboratory pilot validation without posterior industrial projection. Recently, an advanced environmental friendly strategy for the recovery of OMWW was established involving the impregnation of OMWW on dry biomasses, drying of these impregnated samples, and finally green fuels and biochar production. This established strategy revealed that the drying step is crucial for the success of the entire recovery process. Hence, two impregnated samples were prepared through OMWW impregnation on sawdust (IS) and olive mill solid waste (ISW). The drying kinetics of OMWW and impregnated samples (IS and ISW) were examined in a convective dryer (air velocity range from 0.7-1.3 m/s and the temperature from 40-60 • C). The experimental results indicated that the drying of the impregnated samples occurred twice as fast as for the OMWW sample. Such behavior was attributed to the remaining thin layer of oil on the OMWW surface Furthermore, the Henderson and Pabis model showed the suitable fit of the drying curves with a determination coefficient R 2 above 0.97. The drying rates were extracted from the mathematical models and the drying process was analyzed. The coefficient of effective diffusivity varied between 2.8 and 11.7 × 10 −10 m 2 /s. In addition, the activation energy values ranged between 28.7 and 44.9 kJ/mol. These values were in the same range as those obtained during the drying of other agrifood byproducts. The final results could be very helpful to engineers aiming to improve and optimize the OMWW drying process.

“…In some regions (Puglia, Calabria, Campania), these effluents are collected in lagoons to evaporate the water they contain. The remaining solid part of these wastes can be used as either fertilizer or fuels [5]. However, a considerable amount of energy is required to evaporate the water, so the process is not economically attractive, and it is time-and land-consuming.…”
