Table Olive Wastewater: Problem, Treatments and Future Strategy. A Review

Abstract: The table olive industry produces a high quantity of wastewater annually. These wastewaters are very problematic because of their characteristics of high organic matter, high phenolic content, high salinity and conductivity. The quantities in which they are produced are also a serious problem. The worldwide production of table olives reached 2,550,000 tons in the last five campaigns, with the European Union contributing to 32% of total production. The problem of these wastewaters is focused on the Mediterranea… Show more

“…Wastewater, which is the biggest waste stream from municipalities, petrochemical, pharmaceuticals, food, textile, agricultural, polymer and paper industries and so on contain high contaminants of oil and salts of organic and inorganic compounds [1][2][3][4][5]. This strikes as a major ecological problem with high environmental impacts when discharged into the ecosystem without proper treatment.…”

“…Egypt, Turkey, Algeria, Syria and Morocco are high producers, with a total production of 1,223,500 tons (season 2015/2016). The United States and some South American countries (Argentina, Mexico and Peru) are also important producers, and contribute 70,500 and 151,500 tons (season 2015/2016), respectively [ 1 , 2 ].…”

“…The development of sustainable remediation processes is a tough challenge and bioaugmentation via the use of exogenous fungi (white-rot fungi, Aspergillus niger , Geotrichum candidum , Trichoderma harzianum ), microalgae ( Nannochloropsis gaditana ), or activated sludge has emerged as a feasible, green, and cost-effective approach. However, recent findings highlight the limited adaptability of these microbial cells to GOW and their limited ability to degrade the toxic organic constituents (i.e., phenolic compounds) [ 2 , 5 , 6 ]. A. niger has been recognized as metabolically superior against the other tested microorganisms in terms of phenol degradation and phytotoxicity reduction [ 3 ].…”
